UPS & Battery Risk Assessments.
Avoid Assumptions. Test with Certainty.
Routine testing is the foundation of a reliable UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) system. At BCL Power, we don’t just check if your equipment switches on — we assess whether it’s fit for purpose under real-world conditions. Our UPS system risk assessment services are designed to identify hidden faults, weak points, and potential failure risks before they threaten your business.
Why “Testing” Matters:
A UPS system is only as good as its last successful check. Many facilities rely on assumptions that their backup power will work when needed, but without proper testing, there’s no real evidence. Our testing and risk assessments give you clear, actionable data on the actual condition of your UPS and batteries.
UPS System and Battery Risk Assessments are essential for ensuring electrical safety, continuity of operations, and compliance with health, safety, and environmental regulations. We carry out a full suite of functional and load testing services, including:
-
System Performance Tests – Simulate mains failure to confirm correct operation under load.
-
Battery Discharge Testing – Validate runtime and identify failing UPS batteries.
-
Thermal Imaging – Detect heat-related issues such as loose connections or overloaded components.
-
Ohmic Testing– Measure internal resistance to assess battery health.
Risk Assessment & Compliance Review – Evaluate your UPS system against operational risk.
- General Information
- Hazard Identification

Protection Planning
Through regular assessments you can ensure your UPS system will function when you most need it, protecting you from unnecessary costs. If you’re responsible for compliance, you need more than a visual check. Our assessments align with UK regulatory expectations, including SFG20 and health & safety guidance. We help you demonstrate due diligence and build a traceable maintenance history — essential for audits, insurance, and business continuity planning.
The Full Solution.
In addition to our standard UPS risk assessment, we also provide UPS Maintenance, installations and removals along with UPS battery testing. Our load bank testing services provides information on a battery’s autonomy and how your UPS batteries will perform under load without the risk to your critical equipment.
Don’t Wait for a UPS Fault to Take Action.
Many UPS failures occur without warning. Regular testing helps prevent downtime, data loss, and disruption to critical operations. By identifying early-stage degradation, you can avoid costly emergency callouts or complete system failure.
Our technicians operate across the UK, offering flexible scheduling and out-of-hours testing to suit your operational demands. Every visit is logged, reported, and reviewed to ensure full transparency and traceability. Get in touch with BCL Power to book a UPS system test or arrange a risk assessment. We’ll ensure your backup power is more than just a ticked box — it’s ready when you need it.
