APC by Schneider Electric, formerly known as American Power Conversion Corporation, is a manufacturer of uninterruptible power supplies, electronics peripherals and data center products. In 2007, APC was acquired by Schneider Electric, a multinational European corporation known globally for its expertise in energy management and automation. This led to the establishment of the Critical Power & Cooling Services (CPCS) Business Unit, which now includes the APC and MGE UPS Systems brands.
APC is known for product developments such as SurgeArrest® surge protectors; Matrix-UPS®, the industry’s first modular UPS; a new generation of Smart-UPS; the company’s first Back-UPS Pro® models; and the Symmetra® Power Array™ which revolutionized the industry with redundancy, scalability and serviceability in a single solution.
