We've had a blackout!
Neper:
The first in two years and all of 1/5 second. ;)
My VOIP telephone crashed and so did one of our computers. All the rest was unaffected.
Stray Electron:
Where is here and exactly why is this newsworthy?

"Here" is, I guess, Germany. And we "never" have blackouts. But a 1/5th second grid drop is not a blackout anyway.
Nothing to see here, move along, move along.
Messtechniker:
Seems to have happend in Germany where
blackouts are extremely rare.
The last blackout I experienced was due to crane
ship hitting the high voltage lines running across the water. :palm:
There even exist some pics of this event. Quite a bang. :)
JohanH:
I think it's a couple of years since we had one, too. Very rare.
