Power Outages

A power outage is a temporary loss of electrical power in a specific area, which can result from various causes. These include equipment failures, natural disasters like storms or floods, localized demand exceeding supply, scheduled maintenance, or accidents involving power lines or infrastructure. Power outages can disrupt daily activities, affecting homes, businesses, and essential services such as hospitals. They can vary in duration from a few minutes to several days, depending on the cause and the efficiency of the repair process. Preparing for a power outage often involves having backup power solutions, such as generators, and emergency supplies to ensure safety and continuity during the disruption.
