Reliable Power Helps Beaumont Hospital Save Lives The idea of "critical power" has no more important application than in the healthcare industry. With sensitive equipment that demands extreme levels of power quality to operate correctly, even a momentary lapse in power quality - or even worse - a power system failure, can result in a tragic event. Patients take for granted that when you check into a hospital, the lights won't suddenly turn off just as the surgeon is preparing to perform a delicate maneuver. Keeping power issues under wraps is no small task even at a small medical center, but it's especially demanding when you're one of the nation's largest healthcare facilities.
