"Online", as applied to inverters, means that the inverter is supplying the load in an operational state, i.e. "online". The inverter stage is running from the battery, floated from the rectifier, generating voltage, which is synchronized to the alternate source.

Contrast this with "Offline" inverter, which means that the inverter stage is not running, or that it is in a standby state. In this case, loss of power causes the inverter stage to start, and to take the load. There is going to be a glitch in the output when this happens, usually of a few line cycles.

What is the Working of online ups?

Online UPS on the other hand uses an Inverter which always on to give sine wave AC in the output socket. The incoming AC is first converted into DC by a transformer to charge the battery as well as to give power to the inverter transformer. The inverter transformer converts the DC to AC continuously to power the load. If power fails, the battery backup circuit switches on and takes the load. Online UPS is more efficient than the Offline UPS and uses a "Constant duty Inverter". It also has a "Static bypass" system that transfers the load to the AC power if the inverter system fails. The advantage of the Online UPS is that, it clean up the AC waveform by converting it into DC then reconverting this DC to fresh AC.

What is the Difference between off-line and online UPS?

The offline UPS is in standby mode. The charger is maintaining the battery, but the inverter stage is not running. Power goes from input to output, bypassing the inverter. In this configuration, the charger and inverter design is less, as the charger is usually in trickle mode and the inverter does not need to run continuously. On power fail, the inverter starts up and takes the load. There is a glitch in output, a few line cycles, but most loads can handle this. The online UPS runs all the time. The charger now runs the inverter, as well as maintaining charge on the battery. The inverter supplies the load. Power goes from input to charger to inverter to output. In this configuration, the charger and inverter design is more, as they need to run continuously. On power fail, there is no glitch, because the inverter is already running and supplying the load. Usually, there is synchronization between the inverter and the line, so that failure of the inverter can initiate fall-back to the line without glitch.
