Power Failure Response

1. Report outages immediately to Maintenance during regular business hours or Campus Safety & Security at Daytona: 386-226-7233(SAFE) or Prescott: 928-777-3739 during other times.
2. Cautiously move away from any electrical equipment or machinery to avoid injury should it restart suddenly. Move slowly to avoid tripping. If able, shut down all electrical equipment as necessary and stay clear of all machinery during the power outage. Do not turn any equipment back on until authorized.
3. During the failure, remain in a safe location. Back-up generators will supply emergency lighting to most areas. Supervising staff/faculty must decide whether to dismiss staff/students in the event of an extended power failure.
4. Occupants should check and notify Campus Safety & Security of persons trapped in elevators or equipment that may present a hazard upon re-energization of the building. Department staff should conduct safety checks of all areas to determine if any person requires assistance.
5. No one should be in a work area that has no light. If the condition exists, move people to an area with at least minimal light (enough to locate an exit path).
6. Each Department should make flashlights available to employees for use during a power outage. In the event that emergency lighting fails, use flashlights to evacuate and conduct safety checks.
7. Lab users should follow these precautions:
   1. Put vital equipment on emergency power circuits if available. Check with Maintenance.
   2. Make a list of equipment that must be reset or re-started.
   3. Keep fume hood sashes closed and all containers capped.
   4. Check cold storage items. Use dry ice if necessary.
8. Facility Services will ensure that all affected equipment, security systems, and other alarms are reset.
