Define the following power problems. i. Blackout ii. Surge iii. Spike
i. Blackout: It is the complete loss of electrical power where voltage and current drop to a very low value (typically zero). They are caused due to physical interruption in the local network.
ii. Surges: They are small over voltage conditions that take place over relatively long periods of few milliseconds.
iii. Spikes: It is a large over voltage condition that occurs over short duration of few microseconds.
