  Your Liebert UPS might be running on battery for a few reasons. First, ensure it's securely plugged into the wall socket. Another reason could be that the UPS input protection has been triggered; try replacing the UPS input fuse or resetting the input breaker, then restart the UPS. Finally, the utility voltage might be outside the acceptable range for the UPS; in this case, verify that the utility supply voltage is within the correct limits for your UPS.
