Emergency Back-up Power

The following information has been supplied by the electrical department of Physical Plant.

The Clark Science Center has an emergency generator that will start up within 12 seconds of a power outage. The following equipment is powered by the generator. As the -80 freezers will hold temperature for some time without power, they can be temporarily unplugged to supply power for other needs in that area.
