[amp_mcq option1=”a slightly elevated voltage lasting from seconds to minutes or more” option2=”a slightly decreased voltage lasting from seconds to minutes or more” option3=”complete power out lasting a few minutes” option4=”alternating power out, power on lasting a few minutes E. has nothing to do with electricity” correct=”option2″]<\/p>\n
The correct answer is: B. a slightly decreased voltage lasting from seconds to minutes or more.<\/p>\n
A brownout is a decrease in the voltage of an electrical power supply. This can cause lights to dim, appliances to malfunction, and computers to shut down. Brownouts are usually caused by an overload on the power grid, such as when too many people are using electricity at the same time. They can also be caused by problems with the power lines or transformers.<\/p>\n
A brownout is different from a blackout, which is a complete loss of power. A brownout is usually less severe than a blackout, but it can still cause problems for people and businesses.<\/p>\n
