Summary
In short
- An uninterruptible power supply check is a checklist used in KnowMaintain that checks battery condition, autonomy and transfer on systems protecting controls, chillers or data. It is built against ISO 55001 cl.8.1 and forms part of the Pressure Systems and Refrigeration programme.
- Run quarterly. Completed by engineering.
- The template holds 40 fields across 5 sections.
- Scoring is pass rate, where high is good.
- ISO 55001 is asset management systems. The international standard for getting value from physical assets across their whole life. Underpins the maintenance templates.
- It connects to the rest of the library: links Generator test, Business continuity.
What it is
What it is
What is an uninterruptible power supply check?
An uninterruptible power supply check is a checklist used in KnowMaintain that checks battery condition, autonomy and transfer on systems protecting controls, chillers or data. It is built against ISO 55001 cl.8.1 and forms part of the Pressure Systems and Refrigeration programme.
When is an uninterruptible power supply check completed?
An uninterruptible power supply check is completed at the point in the process the check protects, every time that process runs. Run quarterly.
When to use it
When to use it, and when not to
This checklist is one step in a larger programme. Using it for work that belongs to a neighbouring template produces records that are hard to report on later.
Use it for
- The event or activity this checklist covers has occurred, or is about to
- The workspace is being set up, or the register needs an entry added or retired
- You are running the Pressure Systems and Refrigeration programme and this is one of its steps
- A linked record needs this one to exist: links generator test, business continuity
Not for
- Boiler Operation Record, which records boiler operating parameters, water treatment results and blowdown through a shift.
- Refrigeration Plant Log, which records suction and discharge pressures, temperatures, oil levels and run hours across the refrigeration plant.
- Water Treatment Record, which records dosing, testing and results for boiler, cooling and process water systems.
- Anything outside KnowMaintain, which belongs in the workspace that owns that process

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is the uninterruptible power supply check template based on?+
It is built against ISO 55001 cl.8.1. ISO 55001 is asset management systems. The international standard for getting value from physical assets across their whole life. Underpins the maintenance templates. ISO is international Organization for Standardization. A voluntary international standard. Widely adopted, often required by customers, and certifiable where a management system standard.
What sections does the uninterruptible power supply check contain?+
There are 5 sections: header, status, testing, coverage, result. Together they hold 40 fields, 32 of which are required.
How many uninterruptible power supply check records should we have?+
This is a singleton. One record per workspace, set up once and maintained, rather than one per event. Other templates refer back to it.
Which programme does the uninterruptible power supply check belong to?+
It is part of Pressure Systems and Refrigeration. Statutory examinations in date and an ammonia position that stands up to a regulator visit.
How is an uninterruptible power supply check scored?+
Scoring is pass rate. High is good. Scores exist to make the form tell you something, not to produce a percentage for its own sake.
Can the uninterruptible power supply check template be changed?+
Yes. Every field, option, score and conditional rule is editable, and the links to other templates come with it. Most teams install it as it is, run it for a cycle, then adjust.
The agents
What the agents do with it
The form is the easy part. Keeping it current, routing it to the right owner and holding the evidence together is the work that actually slips.
Holds the uninterruptible power supply check library against your registers, routes each record to its owner, and keeps the evidence trail together.
Coordinates the crew, rolls completion and exceptions into one view, and holds every write for your approval before it touches a record.
This template lives in KnowMaintain — asset maintenance. Work orders, planned maintenance, calibration, reliability and shutdowns.
