susceptible to power supply failures (or
brownouts). To specify, industries in
the car and electronic production, along
with those that produce food, drink, and
pharmaceuticals, can suffer from major
problems caused by even a ten-second
loss of power. This does not only mean a
temporary pause in production, but it also
represents a looming damage to both the
final products and their equipment and
machinery; not to mention the money and
time spent in correcting these damages
done.
The extent of these damages can
sometimes be challenging to record.
Some electronic control systems that were
configured solely for your application may
tend to go back to default and require
reprogramming after the power returns.
Productions in the critical stages that were
interrupted by power loss can result to
ruined products and waste of expensive
materials. The more automation is
integrated into the work field, the greater
the impact of power supply anomalies to
the corporation.
But power outages are not the only problems
in industrial plants, but voltage drops and
power sags also play a significant role. Out
of all the power supply anomalies that
manufacturers experience, more than 92
percent trace back to voltage ‘sags.’ This
makes them the most common threat for
most businesses.
Power sags, along with power ‘spikes’, can
do unimaginable damages to equipment,
especially computers and servers. Back in
May 2017, British Airways experienced a loss
of no less than $100 million just because of a
momentary power supply event. The incident
restarted their critical data center, ending
up to approximately 800 of their London
Gatwick flights being cancelled.
