Blackout incidents refer to events or situations where there is a complete loss of electrical power in a specific area for a significant period. These incidents can occur due to various reasons, including natural disasters, technical failures in the power grid, equipment malfunctions, or human error. During a blackout, homes, businesses, and public services may be affected, leading to disruptions in daily activities, loss of lighting, heating or cooling, and potential hazards if medical equipment or other critical systems rely on electricity. The term emphasizes the severity and totality of the power loss, distinguishing it from more minor outages or flickers of electricity. Blackout incidents can vary in duration, ranging from a few minutes to several days, and can impact a small neighborhood, a city, or even larger regions, depending on the cause and scale of the power failure.
