What is upsBatCurrent?
This is the current flowing into or out of the UPS battery, reported as positive while the battery is discharging and negative while it is being recharged. It lets an admin tell at a glance whether the UPS is currently running on battery or topping the battery back up after an outage. For example, seeing upsBatCurrent swing from a positive value during an outage to a negative value once utility power returns confirms the battery has switched from discharge to recharge.
