What are the solutions for Blackouts and Brownouts?
A. Many Blackout and Brownout problems can be eliminated by installing various types of back-up power supplies. Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) contain batteries and can provide smooth instantaneous carryover for a short period of time. Standby generators may be started automatically if power is lost, but they take several seconds to begin supplying power. Thus for long term operation of critical loads, a combination of both UPS and generators is often used.
