Protecting equipment during load shedding and power surges
Last Updated about a month ago
- Put routers, fibre units and switches on a small UPS or battery backup so the internet stays up during outages.
- Put servers and important computers on a UPS that can shut them down safely before the battery runs out.
- Use surge protection plugs for equipment, and do not chain extension leads.
- Switch sensitive equipment off or unplug it in severe storms.
- Replace UPS batteries every few years, as they weaken with age.
