2-4:  Input currents of the PFC (without filters) 

As shown in Figure 

 

2-3, the PFC section operates in Continuous Current Mode (CCM) 

conduction, which has many advantages. Input currents are shaped in such a way that they 
follow the input voltages with precision. 
This makes the system appear to be nothing more than a resistive load with respect to the line 
voltage. In other words, the system corrects the input current waveform of the connected load, 
and acts as an active power filter. 
The PFC section also draws symmetrical currents from each phase, and maintains good 
current sharing among identical UPS modules in parallel. 

Each phase input is sensed for voltage and current, required to force the input current drawn 
from the phase input to follow its voltage and emulate a resistor. Two feedback loops are
