<pre class="k9mail"><div dir="auto">Thanks, Tim. The unit was available with single as well as split phase output, and from the data I can find the input was single phase, though the input connector has L1/L2/N/G wires. I'm digging through the MIB to see what the raw data looks like.<br><br>Thanks!<br>John<hr>On 11/11/24 19:14, Tim Dawson wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 1ex 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid #729fcf; padding-left: 1ex;"><div dir="auto">Sounds pretty normal from what I see. It appears that this is *NOT* a true 240v UPS, but rather one that provides two legs of 120v output from two legs of 120 input, and what is seen as "L2" is actually neutral, and the line names are reporting incorrectly. With that in mind, each leg in should be 120v, as well as the outputs, which is exactly what you are seeing.(The fact tht L1 to L3 is 240v really isn't relevant).<br><br>- Tim<br><br><br>On November 11, 2024 6:56:51 PM EST, Greg Troxel via Nut-upsuser <nut-upsuser@alioth-lists.debian.net> wrote:<br><br> John Ackermann N8UR via Nut-upsuser<br> <nut-upsuser@alioth-lists.debian.net> writes:<br><br> I am monitoring via the SNMP driver an APC SmartUPS that has split<br> phase (2L + neutral) 240V input and 120/120 volt outputs.
