<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">The test, although intended to simulate an actual power outage, has been modified to keep the disruption to a minimum. If an actual power outage occurs, the electrical circuits
supported by the generator will be without power for 5 to 10 seconds except for those areas which have their own uninterruptible power supplies (operating rooms, etc.) Our recent experience suggests that a real power outage can be expected once a year. If
you have equipment, processes, etc. that cannot cope with a power outage of this duration, your department should consider installing uninterruptible power supplies (UPS's).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
