Question
your company resides in an area with rapid growth in both the corporate and residential areas surrounding your office. as such, your company has been experiencing several brownouts due to power grid problems (too much demand and not enough electricity). fearing that your computers (especially the servers) could be damaged by these brownouts, your manager has asked you to find a solution to this problem.
which of the following would be the best device to recommend to your manager for computer protection?
ups
power strips
gfci
surge suppressor
A UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) provides backup power during brownouts and protects against power - related issues. Power strips just distribute power, GFCI (Ground - Fault Circuit Interrupter) is for electrical safety against ground faults, and surge suppressors protect against voltage spikes but not provide backup power during brownouts.
