1 POWER PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS
1.1    POWER PROBLEMS
1.1.1 THE CURRENT SITUATION
The increasing sophistication of Information Technology Equipment (IT) and automated industrial systems and their increased performance levels e.g. the speed of data processing, the real time interconnection of telecommunications systems, continuous and automated operation, etc. means that they are more and more vulnerable and dependent on their electrical power supply.

This electrical energy is distributed in a waveform making up a single and three phase sinusoidal system characterised by its :

• frequency,
• amplitude,
• shape (wave distortion),
• system symmetry.

Whilst at the power station feeder, the voltage wave is virtually perfect, the same cannot be said by the time it reaches the user, where several different types of disturbances can be observed :

• transients,
• sags/brownouts,
• frequency variations,
• outage – blackouts…

What is Pandemic Flu?
A flu pandemic occurs when a new virus emerges to which people have little or no immunity and there is no effective vaccine. The virus spreads easily from person to person, causes serious illness, and can sweep across the country in a very short time.

How to Provide In-home Care for Pandemic Flu
Almost everyone will care for an individual during a pandemic. Take steps to protect yourself and others from becoming infected. During a pandemic, your local newspaper, radio and TV stations will provide up-to-date information from your local health district and Public Health Authority.

Prevent Spread of Infection
Isolate

• Sick person should be alone in a separate room, if possible
• Same person should tend to the sick person each day

Wear Masks

• While tending to the sick person
• During disinfecting

Change linens frequently

• Change bedding and clothes daily
• Wash in detergent and hot water
• Wash hands after handling laundry

Disinfect surfaces

• Clean surfaces commonly touched: doorknobs, light switches, faucets, and handles

Wash Hands

• Caregiver should wash hands frequently
• Avoid touching his or her face

Separate Items

• Handle and store sick person’s items separately (toothbrush, clothes, towels, linen, food)

This guide is designed to help you understand the threat of a pandemic influenza outbreak in our country and your community. It describes commonsense actions you can take now in preparing for a pandemic. We cannot predict how severe the next pandemic will be or when it will occur, but being prepared may help lower the impact of an influenza pandemic on you and your family. Additional information including a planning checklist for individuals and families can be found at www.pandemicflu.gov.

What You Need to Know
An influenza (flu) pandemic is a worldwide outbreak of flu disease that occurs when a new type of influenza virus appears that people have not been exposed to before (or have not been exposed to in a long time). The pandemic virus can cause serious illness because people do not have immunity to the new virus. Pandemics are different from seasonal outbreaks of influenza that we see every year. Seasonal influenza is caused by influenza virus types to which people have already been exposed. Its impact on society is less severe than a pandemic, and influenza vaccines (flu shots and nasal-spray vaccine) are available to help prevent widespread illness from seasonal flu.
