Does an uninterruptible power supply solve the problems of a voltage stabilizer?

Question

Electronics

Hi people.
I live in rented housing, the wiring blinks to hell for a fraction of a second, the light throughout the hut (hardly perceptible, but noticeable). I think that sooner or later this thing will burn, I have a power supply or something worse than my mother. Changing the electrician is not an option. a rented hut is not yet an option to move.
Thought about solving the problem locally. The first thing that comes to mind is to buy an uninterruptible power supply, but I'm not completely sure that it will solve the problem of voltage dips. There is already a surge protector, can it pull out voltage dips, or is it only intended to dampen surges, or is it generally useless in this situation?

Answer 1

Interactive - yes.
This is a logical, in a constructive sense, continuation of the previous design. The element base of line-interactive devices is more complex; a regulating element is introduced (most often it is an autotransformer). An additional component of the circuit allows the UPS to operate in the range of high, low voltage without connecting the battery.
Another plus is the sinusoidal voltage at the output, which seriously reduces voltage surges, unnecessary impulses when switching the power supply. All this as a whole stabilizes the operation of a PC or any other peripheral device. In offline mode, the devices also do not work for long - from 6 to 20 minutes.
Line-interactive UPSs are recommended for use with constant power surges , when deviations from the nominal value are significant. The high performance characteristics of these devices have led to their use to protect not only personal computers, but also file servers and workstations. It is obvious that interactive UPSs exceed the technical parameters of previously created redundant power supplies. .

Answer 2

Any high-quality PSU with a wide range of supply voltages 90 (100-110) V - 250 V, itself copes with such drawdowns, wonderfully performing the function of a stabilizer, sometimes even better than many UPSs.
This is no excuse not to call the LCD electrician or demand the same from the owners of the housing.

Answer 3

If you do not have losses, but dips (voltage reductions), then you must first solve this problem. Failure is due to poor contact, as a result of which this contact heats up, worsens even more, can melt and even catch fire. To get started, just tighten the contacts on the machines, socket, connections and replace if necessary - they are not so expensive.
Also, failures can be due to poor contact in the ground wire, and in the event of a complete loss, you can get 380 volts in the outlet and no uninterruptible power supply will save you from this.
But in general, of course, with an uninterruptible power supply is better than without it.

Answer 4

Yes line-interactive UPS.
It might be worth taking a steep (large cross-section, high-quality insulation) industrial extension cord and powering it from the Shield. I like the CGHL cable. Extension cord - A useful thing in the household, when you move out it will come in handy.
