A power backup system, comprising:
- a first uninterruptible power supply and a second uninterruptible power supply configured to drive a load in parallel, wherein the first uninterruptible power supply and the second uninterruptible power supply are both connected to at least two power sources, a connection to a first of the at least two power sources being through a single first switch.
A method for providing power backup, comprising:
- coupling at least two uninterrupted power supplies (UPSs) to at least two independent power sources through a single first switch such that each of the at least two UPSs receives power from the at least two independent power sources;
- and
- providing from the at least two UPSs, uninterrupted power to a load connected in parallel to the at least two UPSs, wherein upon a failure of one of the at least two independent power sources, the other power source continues supplying power to the at least two UPSs for the providing.
