For those of you who missed the earlier announcement due to the mailing list outage, or for those of you who simply want to know more, the power outage scheduled for this Thursday, August 4th, 2001 from 9AM to 5PM is so that PSE can perform an infrared scan on the electric subpanels in each building as well as do OHM testing on the condominiums electric system. This testing helps us determine the overall health of our electric system so that we may proactively take action to prevent unplanned or extended outages in the future.
The outages should be brief (15-20 minutes at a time) however they may repeat multiple times throughout the day. You are recommended to keep all sensitive electronic devices powered down during the outage.
