Cooler Master PSU inrush current

chacha · Oct 25, 2016

Greetings. Sorry if my english is bad.
I have a question about Cooler Master V550 PSU, it's inrush current to be exact

Is it really that bad for the PSU to have such a high value? Can there be compatibility issues with UPS unit?
Or it's better to stick to V550SM model instead? Thank you.

No. In rush is the current drawn by the PSU when the PSU is first turned on. 73.189A is definitely high. The greater problem is actually damaging the UPS - or causing it to shut down if it thinks the load (the PSU and other connected devices) is unstable or faulty.
