The costs associated with downtime in a food
and beverage plant can be very high. If power is
lost during production, the current production batch
may have to be scrapped. Production batch cycles
can range from only a few minutes to as long as
several days, resulting in expensive loss of man
hours, raw materials and finished goods.

As equipment size continues to be reduced and
plant floor usage increases, ambient temperatures
increase around the electrical system. Lighting
fixtures have become more compact in design,
which also raises temperatures. Food and
beverage processing areas can have dryers and
coolers or ovens and flash freezers directly in line
with one another, causing rapid temperature
swings that stress electrical systems.
