Planned interruptions, which are made several times a year and are notified in advance, can cause major damages if measures are not taken.
Especially in industrial areas, losses caused by electricity interruption can reach serious dimensions.
Electric companies although they don't prefer to make planned interruption, this can sometimes be a necessary measure.Therefore, residents and business owners need to take precautions in this regard and frequently follow interruptions.
What is Planned Interruption and Why It Applies?
Sometimes there are failures in electrical networks. A simple fault can spread to a large area if no precautions are taken and it is not corrected. In addition, even if there are no faults, renewal work must be done so that the networks can continue to function.In this case, electricity is not given to certain neighborhoods, streets and districts for a temporary period.This said practice is called planned interruption.If the electricity is circulating while the necessary repairs are being made, it is possible to say this could cause major damage.That's why electric distribution companies have to apply interruption during renovation, maintenance and repair works.
How Can I Be Aware of Planned Interruptions?
Information about planned interruptions is made on distribution companies' web sites.
However, it is possible to listen to planned interruptions by connecting to the operator of the distribution company in the area when the electrical fault line 185 is called.
Some companies publish free mobile applications that send out notifications for planned interruptions situations.Using these types of communication channels, you can learn interruptions in your area.
What Measures Should be Taken Against Planned Interruptions?
In Residential and Small Work Places:
Televisions must be unplugged even when the power is restored, the LEDs inside the television may cause fire.Small household appliances such as kettle, hair dryer, toaster, microwave oven should be taken off the plug.By purchasing charged lamps, you can avoid staying in the dark in case of planned electric interruption. Computers should be pulled from the plug even if they are laptops.
Sudden voltage fluctuations may cause problems such as motherboard burn-up when power is restored.Light sources and other materials that can be used in case of interruption should be located in easily accessible places of the house.
At Workshops and Industrial Organizations:
Computers should be backed up frequently to avoid data loss.The power supply must be used to do not stop the operation of the devices.In order to ensure business safety, alternative lighting systems must be used, materials such as a drugstore closet and first aid kit should be easily accessible.
Why Do Failures Occur After Planned Interruption?
By applying the above guidelines, it is possible to take some precaution against planned interruptions.However, as noted, all faults, from small household appliances to industrial machines, are caused by high voltage and sudden voltage changes.
Unfortunately, we see that after the planned interruptions, there are serious financial losses in the residential areas, both in the business and the production areas.
The main reason for these losses is that no measures have been taken against over-voltages.The said tensions cause the devices to come out of operation.It should be noted that the energy distributed after the interruption is particularly dangerous, especially if the fault has not been fully remedied (which is always possible).
For example, the power supply can enable the devices to operate in the event of interruption.However, sudden change will occur in the mains when the power is interrupted, and this will cause the power supply to deteriorate.On the other hand, pulling the devices out is not a sufficient measure alone.Because the high voltage, which is waiting in the mains, will turn to this goal when any device is plugged in.Using Trimbox is enough to take action against all of these situations.
Trimbox Protects from the Damages Caused by Planned Interruptions
Trimbox functions as an over-voltage dampener, a voltage stabilizer in the public language.By regulating the sudden voltage that is directed to the sector, by adjusting the current electrical energy according to the needs of the system, it completely prevents damage caused by high voltage.Unlike arresters, it does not only ground the over-current in the system, it also eliminates the over-voltage and completely protects the system from high voltage.You can safely use Trimbox to avoid planned interruptions and electrical failures and there is no need to take precautions such as pulling out the electronic devices used in a place with Trimbox.
