Solution

Protect your critical equipment with a UPS!

Power failures are a familiar occurrence in today's energy-dependent world. Consistent power relies on a system of minutely timed events, the disruption of which can result in an outage. Even well maintained systems can be affected by external problems. Well-prepared people can take precautions to protect themselves from the worst effects of an outage.

Not all power outages result in darkened rooms; sometimes the flickering of lights is enough to trigger an equipment outage. But a second is all it takes for some computers to lose the power necessary to keep running. During this outage, the computer may shut down and restart. When this happens, the computer's RAM resets and all of the information on the chip, including the files that were open at the time of the shutdown, are erased. In addition, the initial surge of power may build a charge that can damage the delicate components within the computer chips, disabling the computer.

The cost to repair the equipment, in lost money and productivity, can be high. For this reason, instead of saving all open files and shut down your nonessential systems during thunderstorms and other potential outages, install a UPS that can protect your system from all 9 major power problems.
