When I experience a brownout (low electricity, dim light
etc..), what should I do?
Beware of Brownouts
Safeguard you valuable appliances and electronics during brown-out conditions.
While the low level of electricity can stress some equipment, far more
dangerous is the very real chance that when the power is restored, it can hit
your lines with a much higher than usual level that can burn and or destroy:
- refrigerators
- dishwashers
- washers
- dryers
- computers
- printer
- portable telephones
- cell phones and chargers
- cameras and chargers
- satellite descrambler
boxes
- TVs and stereos
- water pressure systems
- water purification systems
Keep your equipment safe – UNPLUG IT!
