Best Answer

UPS usually stands for Uninterruptible Power Supply, and refers to a device that stores electricity in a battery for temporary backup if the "wall" power should fluctuate or black out for a short period of time. Typically, computers or servers are connected to these UPS devices to prevent them from shutting off during electrical storms and other power fluctuations/outages. - KS

How much power does a 300 VA UPS consume?

From the description given its output power would be 300 Volt-Amps which is almost the same as 300 Watts but may not be, depending on the power factor. If we allow, say, 10% extra for power losses, the UPS (Un-interruptable Power Supply to those who don't know what such things are) may consume about 330 Watts from your building's main electrical power supply. If you need to have a more accurate idea of the power it takes why not look at the rating plate on the UPS unit itself? Or if you had a Wattmeter you could measure the maximum power drawn when it is working at full load charging its batteries.
