Focus is upon diversity, equity, accessibility, and inclusion. The series increases awareness of how individual and ubiquitous technologies presence can provide quality of life for everybody including people with disabling conditions for example mobility, hearing, vision, and for people who are aging in place, and people with various needs in health for example diabetes, asthma, and other needs. In this presentation, Larry Nelson Jr, P.E, Principal Engineer, Protection Engineering NE National Grid will lead us in a discussion of how the utility becomes aware of a power outage at a home and how it is handled when it’s a small incident and then we will explore how that changes on larger scale outages and what things are considered to help all people equally be situationally aware.
