The installation of the uninterruptible power supply (UPS) that delivers electricity to Central Queensland University computer systems was restored Sunday.

Systems, which were knocked off-line following a fire late Friday, 1st of November, have been operating via temporary power lines for more than a week with minimal impact on university operations The changeover to the new equipment occurred at 2:15PM Sunday, during a 6hr and 15 minute procedure, which was completed ten hours ahead of schedule. A UPS supplies “clean” electrical power to the central computing systems through batteries, which protects them from surges or reductions in general electricity.
