#Rotational brownout

Simply thinking about the idea of experiencing brownouts bothers us. However, some areas are now experiencing rotational brownouts due to the current power situation. The rotational brownout is a loss of electricity due to a shortage of supply. With the supply deficiency, there is a probability that Manual Load Dropping (MLD) or rotational brownouts will take effect. According to Meralco, a rotational brownout may happen when the system is already on red alert. Hence, Meralco has given an advisory about the possible rotational brownouts in particular areas that the company covers. The brownout's duration, however, depends on the lack of supply in the area. Thus, they advise their customers regarding brownouts as soon as they receive information on the power supply situation from the NGCP, which holds the information of the volume that power plants in Luzon Grid are able to supply.
