Brownouts often occur when the electrical system is over taxed with electrical customers using more power than usual due to excessive heat. Dimming or flickering lights may be a sign of a brownout and localized blackouts may soon follow. Beware of brownouts when air conditioner usage is heavy on a hot day.
Grid failures describe the condition where a portion of the overall electrical distribution system fails. While this is very uncommon, it is possible when there is a catastrophic failure of equipment. The failure may be caused by old or aging equipment or by a force outside of the utility company’s immediate control like hackers or terrorists. Electrical grid failures may result in wide-spread blackouts of lengthy duration. Electrical grid failures are a worst-case scenario.
