Please Power Down Your Computer on Friday Night

August 30, 2017

Facilities Management will be shutting down electrical power on campus for an hour beginning at 5am on Saturday, September 2 to upgrade electrical switchgear.

In anticipation of this, ITS would like to remind the campus to power down their computers and any laser printers or copiers in their areas before leaving work on Friday, September 1. This will prevent any accidental damage from a possible surge when the power comes back on at 6am on Saturday morning.

If you have an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) unit, please also turn this off on Friday night. You'll need to turn it on again when you come in on Tuesday.

If you experience any problems when you power your computer back up on Tuesday, September 5, please contact the Technology Help Desk at x4357.
