Professionals would rather sell you the correct thing then what you think you need. I am sure the person that asked the question is wiser and will adopt their setup and procurement based on the best practice shared. p/sI have been in a situation where the media organization I worked with remained on air despite power failing (main line feeding our section of Nairobi went down for several days), the generator ran until it got an engine knock, invertor batteries then ran dry and the ups was our last line of defense before power was restored. It does not hurt to have all those redundancies in place. Regards, Alex From: Maisiba Bravo via skunkworks [mailto:skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke] Sent: Friday, November 4, 2016 3:51 PM To: Denis G.
