The internet 'wisdom' on resetting UPS has not resolved the fault. The unit is 5 years old and out of warranty. This could just be old age... but I've got seperate evidence of a wiring fault on that and the adjacent circuit. So I'm getting an electrician in.

All my APC UPSs have standard USB-B connectors on them.

Of course they are all APC Smart UPS 1500s.
