GENERAL INFORMATION
The
aforementioned three character abbreviations, when joined in a
string serve to form an agreement type identifier, i.e. Agreement
Type. As an example:
Agreement
Identifier: STF-WER-SBR. Indicates the following:
STandard
Full service type agreement, and having; the below options:
-
Weekend CM coverage.
-
Semi-Annual Battery plant maintenance – Regular Hours.
SERVICE AGREEMENT OPTIONS EXPLAINANTION
Option: WER: Weekend CM Coverage
With

Major PM visit and 1
Minor PM visit. The difference between the two being
that the Major PM is very comprehensive and requires the unit
to be taken off-line, while the Minor PM provides cursory checks
and can be accomplished with the UPS on-line. This option should
only be selected when the UPS is installed in a clean, air-conditioned
environment.
To
the Top
Option: PMD: Discount for reduced PM visits
This
option modifies the standard 2
Major PM visits per annual agreement term to 1
Major PM only. This option should only be selected
if the UPS is installed in a clean, air-conditioned environment.
Options: BRP: Battery
Replacement Program
Options:
BRP: provide for Battery Replacement upon failure. This program
is issued for batteries that are one (1) or less in age. Eligible
members receive installation free of cost for continued membership
in the Battery Replacement Program. To be eligible interested
company or organization must have batteries that are one (1) year
or less in age. Cost free installation will occur at the end of
the useful service life of the batteries. For cost free installation
company or organization must be in the program for the life of
the battery, five (5) years.
Option: PRA: Pre-Agreement Restoration Authorization
All
Service Agreements require a pre-agreement inspection by Static
Power prior to our entering into such an agreement. There are
however two valid exceptions to this:
1. The
agreement is a consecutive renewal of a previous agreement with
Static Power, and not more than 60 days have elapsed since expiration
of the previous agreement.
2. The
UPS system is new and the installation start-up was performed
by Static Power within the previous 60 days.
The
pre-agreement inspection may optionally be performed during the
first preventive maintenance visit, if the customer agrees in
advance, to authorize whatever additional time and materials funding
is necessary to correct discrepancies noted during the visit.
In such cases, the Agreement Type must contain the option identifier
“PRA”.
BATTERY PLANT MAINTENANCE OPTIONS
The
last letter of the below described battery maintenance option
signifies during what hours the maintenance may be scheduled for
performance.

of IEEE standard 450, 1980. This plan provides for a high degree
of plant reliability with moderate involvement of the customer.
Options: MBR & MBO: Monthly Plant Maintenance
