<b>The test, although intended to simulate an actual power outage, has been modified to keep the disruption to hospital services at 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. 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).</b></div>
