UPS consulting
UPS consulting for businesses
Which UPS fits your loads, runtime and operations? ERREPI supports businesses with selecting, sizing and integrating UPS systems - from the free initial consultation to a concrete product recommendation, on-site analysis or project planning.
The free initial consultation is an initial sales and orientation discussion. If necessary, complete technical planning or on-site recording can be carried out as a paid service.
Assessment
When does UPS consulting make sense?
UPS consulting makes sense when you are not sure what UPS power, backup time, battery size or form factor is needed. It can also help with existing systems, battery replacement, rack installation, monitoring, bypass or service to avoid wrong purchases and later problems.
For servers, network, practices, labs, checkout systems, technical rooms, production or critical infrastructure. We review loads, power, runtime, form factor and the right next steps.
Have a UPS planned Existing systemReplace an existing UPSIf an existing UPS system is too small, outdated, poorly documented or no longer reliable, we check replacements, successors, battery and accessories.
Have existing system checked BatteryCheck batteries and runtimeWhen batteries age or the actual autonomy time is unclear, we check battery requirements, battery set, runtime, aging reserve and service access.
Clarify battery requirements InfrastructureClarify rack, SNMP and bypassIf the UPS is to be integrated into a rack, network management, monitoring, shutdown concept, bypass or alarm contacts, we help with the right integration.
Have infrastructure checkedFree initial consultation
Free initial consultation: assess first, decide second
In the free introductory conversation, we first clarify the basics: loads, existing UPS, desired runtime, installation location, operating situation and open questions. After that, it is clearer whether a product recommendation is enough or a more detailed analysis makes sense.
The initial consultation is free and meant for first orientation. It does not replace a full technical design, on-site survey, electrical planning or legally required inspections.
Check points
What makes good UPS consulting?
A suitable UPS solution is not based on a kVA figure alone. What matters is how loads, runtime, battery, installation location, monitoring, bypass and service fit together.
- connected loads
- Power in watts and VA
- desired backup time
- load profile and reserve
- Form factor: tower, rack or 19-inch
- Installation location: office, rack, technical room, control cabinet or production
- Battery concept and aging reserve
- SNMP, monitoring and shutdown
- Bypass, alarm contacts and maintainability
- Service, battery replacement and spare parts
- existing infrastructure
- planned expansions

Analysis packages from the shop
Book analysis packages directly or clarify them first
The analysis packages are real services from the ERREPI shop. Product data, pricing and shopping cart functions are loaded publicly from the shop. If the right scope is unclear, we clarify it free of charge in advance.
Can be clarified additionally
Options for measurement, reporting, implementation and maintenance
We coordinate additional services to match the analysis package. If measurement, report depth, implementation or maintenance are relevant, we clarify the scope before booking.
Concrete selection
Consulting turns into concrete selection
Once the requirements are clear, suitable products can be selected or requested directly. That includes UPS systems, replacement batteries, SNMP adapters, bypass, rack accessories, services and project planning.
Online UPS and power supply for businesses, IT, network, technical rooms and infrastructure. Suitable if you want to buy a new UPS or have one sized.

This is how the UPS consultation works
- 01
Free initial consultation
They describe the location, consumers, risks of failure and open questions. We classify whether a simple product recommendation is enough or whether an analysis makes sense.
- 02
Clarify requirements
We look at performance, runtime, installation location, load, battery, monitoring, bypass, maintenance and existing infrastructure.
- 03
Choose the next path
Depending on the situation, we recommend a product, a design, an on-site analysis, a service package or an offer.
- 04
Book a product or analysis
Suitable UPS systems, batteries, accessories or analysis packages can be purchased directly from the shop or clarified in advance.
- 05
Prepare for implementation
If desired, planning, delivery, commissioning, battery replacement, monitoring, bypass, maintenance or service can follow.
demarcation
What does not replace free UPS advice
The free initial consultation helps with the initial classification and the next sensible step. However, it does not replace complete technical planning, electrical planning and legally required tests or acceptance tests.
Specialist planners, installers, manufacturers or experts remain involved for elevators, fire alarm systems, machine controls, safety-relevant technology and special systems.
- complete on-site recording
- Electrical planning
- VDE measurements or VDE tests
- Fire protection planning
- Elevator planning
- Machine releases
- TÜV approvals
- binding release of safety-relevant systems
- Complete inventory of all electrical systems
Preparation
This information will help with advice
You don't need to know all the technical data. However, some information will help us to make an initial assessment.
- Which devices should be secured?
- Is there already a UPS system?
- What power or number of consumers is known?
- How long should the UPS last?
- Where should the system be located: rack, technical room, office, control cabinet or production?
- Are there any requirements for SNMP, monitoring or shutdown?
- Is a bypass or signaling contact required?
- Is it about battery replacement, maintenance or replacement?
- Are there photos, nameplates or existing documents?
FAQ
Frequently asked questions about UPS advice
How much does the UPS consultation cost?
The first orientation is free. If an on-site analysis, report, roadmap or additional services are required, this will be provided as a paid service with a clearly defined scope.
What is the difference between initial consultation and analysis package?
The initial consultation is a free sales and orientation meeting without a complete on-site recording. An analysis package is a paid service with a defined scope, on-site appointment and result such as a short report, priority list, criticality matrix or roadmap.
Can ERREPI design the right UPS?
Yes. ERREPI supports the selection and design of suitable UPS systems, batteries, runtimes, designs and accessory components.
What data do I need for a UPS consultation?
Information about consumers, performance, desired running time, installation location, existing UPS system, battery information and requirements for monitoring, bypass or service are helpful.
Is the free initial consultation technical planning?
No. The free initial consultation is an initial sales and orientation discussion. Complete technical planning, on-site recording or electrical planning is a separate service.
Can I buy directly after the consultation?
Yes. If the requirements are clear, suitable products can be purchased via the shop or requested as an offer.
When does an on-site analysis make sense?
An on-site analysis is useful if several consumer groups, critical processes, unclear delivery times, production, special systems or several locations need to be evaluated.
Does the advice replace a VDE test or system acceptance?
No. UPS advice does not replace VDE testing, electrical planning, fire protection planning, elevator planning, machine approval or official or expert acceptance.
Next step
Start with free UPS advice
You don't need to know what UPS power, runtime or battery size is required. Describe to us the location, consumers and risk of failure. We classify whether a simple product recommendation is sufficient or whether an analysis package makes sense.
