PGE Rolling Blackouts and Power Failures.

With the current rolling blackouts, power failures and voltage spikes becoming widespread, it is important to take some safety measures to protect both your system and your data.

A high quality surge suppresser is a good investment.  These will act as a sacrificial device, taking the impact from most line surges.   A large surge can cause the suppresser to go up in smoke.  Better the surge suppresser than the computer!  

If you experience any power failures, pull the computer system power cords from their outlets until the power has returns.  If you cannot reach the power cords, you should at least turn off the power switches on your surge suppressers as well as on the computer during the failure.  This inhibits any surges due to power grid restarts from damaging your computer components and data files.

An Uninterruptible Power Supply or UPS Backup Battery System will provide 110 Volt AC to your system immediately upon any power failure.   The UPS will provide a few minutes (or more) of power, and are not intended to run your system for extended periods of time.  This will prevent Windows from having to restart due to short power fluctuations, and there is time to save files and shut down the system gracefully during a full outage.
