[SML] Motors on UPSs

[Jerry Durand]

Just a comment on the auto-taps.  I'm sure your electricians know about
it, but just in case it's worth noting.  When you get a brownout and the
transformer switches, your Amp draw will go UP by about the same
percentage as the brownout goes DOWN.  Not a problem unless you're
running close to full capacity and you have a deep brownout.
