Protecting power is the protection of electricity from shortages and blackouts.
Power management
The practice is practised when there is a risk of power outages or when a blackout has affected parts of a country.
The government and power companies are responsible for the administration of power emergencies.
In practice, the "protected power" may be able to affect one dwelling or building. If a blackout happens the power companies are called immediately and they will access the restricted area.
United States
In the United States, the State Power Adminstrations (SPAs) are responsible for the management of power outages. Their administration is overseen by Local Power Districts (LPDs). When a blackout happens in all areas of a city or town, the Manager of the LPD is called and reports the blackout to the respective SPA. When a blackout has affected large parts of a state the blackout is reported to the National Power Authority (NPA). If the blackout lasts for more than a week, then it is reported to the NPA immediately.
France
In France the electricity companies are responsible for the management of power outages and electricity shortages. In natural disasters they are reported to the Ministry of Emergency Management.
Japan
In Japan the prefecture governments are responsible for the power outages. In natural disasters they are reported to the Ministry of Transport and Energy. During the East Japan Earthquake the Tohoku Power Authority took measures to conserve power due to blackouts.
Hong Kong
The Energy Authority of Hong Kong is responsible for the power management in Hong Kong. When a blackout affects part of an area, it is reported to the Energy Authority. When the blackout is severe it is reported to the Department of Infrastructure.
Singapore
SingPower is the governing body in Singapore responsible for the administration of power outages and electricity shortages. During the 2016 blackout in southern Malaysia the Ministry of Energy and Resources took measures to prevent the blackout from spreading to Singapore.
New Zealand
KiwiPower is the administrating body for power management and failures. During the 2011 Christchurch earthquake the South Island Council took measures to temporarily stop utilities during earthquakes.
Turkey
In Turkey the provincial governments are responsible for the management of power outages. Electricity shortages are reported to the Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure.
Safety
Proper installation and wiring is needed to ensure the safety of the electrical system. This follows the electrocution of a Japanese man in a Seoul shopping centre in June 2013. In the United States the Department of Mining and Energy set new laws in October 2011 for all electricians to conduct a 6-month safety check up following the death of 13 people in a New York City shopping mall by electrocution. Power stations in South Korea need check ups following the death of a worker in November 2016. In Singapore the National Energy Authority set new laws that require inspection of electric power systems for faulty equipment.
