I was typing my reply to a post of other member here about power interruption but before I could finish my reply, the power supply went dead. It must be an emergency because there was no notice of scheduled power outage during this hour. It’s also raining here since morning. I’m glad that the power supply is back after 15 minutes because I don’t want it to last until evening.

Sometimes it happens here too. The power supply is cut off without notice and what they say is because of some unseen fault that takes time to repair.

It's OK as long as it is restored for not too long.

It's also raining here since yesterday afternoon and good there was no power outage. What's supplying your power is it coal or hydro or other form?

@marlina I think it's very good, because we never experienced power cuts. We had a programmed power cut during one night, as they had to upgrade the line. We had been informed with two months in advance.

Do you get power outages often in your part of the world?

@ZedSmart I think that is too many outages.Suppose you had something important to do that require electricity. I hope they give you a discount on your bill.

It's been raining here since yesterday. We had been getting into the 21 to 22C range before the rain but now it's only 17C outside. We're supposed to have thunderstorms tonight through tomorrow night. I hope your power doesn't go out again.

I hope not in the evening because I really don't like without power supply at night.

@ZedSmart I don't think anyone likes to be without power at night. I hope you don't lose it then.

Here, we get "blinks" as in 2 seconds which makes me worried about the computer.

@ZedSmart It's always been that way here. I guess it's called 'tripping'? The times we do have brownouts it's because something major happened that affects a big area.

I do think that it is an unscheduled power outage.

It really comes as a shock when the power suddenly goes off.

That's right especially you have something in the cooker or using your computer and something electrically operated devices.

The last power cut l experienced was during a storm in July last year. It is not nice.
