The results of a survey into the effects and costs of electricity-supply interruptìons to 23 large industrial consumers are described. Detailed costs have been obtained for 12 companies and it is shown that they can be expressed in terms of a fixed cost, varying with the frequency of interruption, and a variable cost, varying with the duration of interruption.
