Berkeley Lab SIteS Status

LAB IS OPERATING UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS

Jan. 27 at 3 p.m.


A power disruption at the Lab’s hill site occurred at 2:30 p.m. on Sunday, Jan. 26. PG&E said the disruption, which lasted a fraction of a second, was caused by a glitch in the upstream power transmission system, which affected a large area around the Bay.


While Lab operations were not significantly affected, Site Operations Center staff and Plant Maintenance Technicians investigated and addressed infrastructure alarms throughout the day yesterday.


The power fluctuation may have caused other research systems to reset across the main site. Please check critical systems and report damage or problems immediately to the SOC at (510) 486-6999.
