APC SBP16KP servisný bypass panel (MBP)

The APC SBP16KP Maintenance Bypass Panel provides a reliable hardwire service bypass solution for 200/208/240V systems. Designed for use with APC InfraStruXure® Type A, Smart-UPS, and Symmetra UPS products, the panel supports 100A main break-before-make (MBB) operation and allows maintenance or replacement of UPS equipment without interrupting the protected load.

Advantages

The SBP16KP enables uninterrupted power to connected loads during UPS servicing by providing a secure bypass path. Its hardwire input/output configuration and MBB design reduce the risk of transfer-related faults. Compact and purpose-built for APC UPS families, the panel helps minimize downtime and supports safe maintenance procedures.

Suitable for

• Data centers and server rooms requiring continuous power during UPS maintenance
• Network closets and telecommunications equipment racks
• Commercial and industrial electrical installations using APC InfraStruXure, Smart-UPS, or Symmetra systems

How to use

Install the SBP16KP according to APC installation guidelines and local electrical codes, connecting hardwire input and output conductors to the UPS and the protected distribution bus. Use the panel to transfer the load to the bypass path before performing UPS maintenance or replacement; the MBB mechanism ensures a brief open interval to prevent paralleling. Only qualified electricians should perform installation and switching operations.

Recommendations

Verify system voltage and capacity before installation, and test the bypass operation after commissioning. Schedule maintenance during low-load periods where possible and follow APC documentation for safety and grounding procedures.
