650 VA (or about 520 watts, considering a power factor of 0.8) represents the total power available for use.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.VA is the Volt-ampere rating. This will tell you the capacity of the battery and it's ability to carry a load during a power outage.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Thank you for reaching out to us. The VA rating takes into account how much power the UPS would use along with the equipment connected to the unit. This unit would support 360 watts of equipment connected to it. For further reading you can check out the link: http://www.apc.com/salestools/SADE-5TNQYF/SADE-5TNQYF_R1_EN.pdf
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It is the Volt Amp rating that the back-up will protect. Higher the VA rating the more items you can have plunged in for protection
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The 650 VA represents the total maximum power of the units plugged into the UPS. The VA stands for Volt-Amp: volts x amps = watts, the more usual power unit.
