RE: Power out at Super Bowl
This morning on CBS they were showing a video taken in the announcement room when the lights went out. One of the guys on a head set mic could be heard saying "We lost a feeder" "need to do a bus tie" and "20 minutes" could be made out in the audio.
They probably don't have feeder automation software either. And as for those Metal Halides it depends on how long the power was out to them. If it was really 20 minutes even instant-re strike models would need time to warm up.

Sounds like they need enhanced service for these basketball games (no don't respond to correct me).
One would wonder why they don't have network service for something where a 30 second ad costs $4 Million.
No I did not watch, but I heard that dog on Jay Leno predicted correctly.

For a 38-year old stadium, what do you expect? They probably could have had high pressure sodium but HPS would have restart problems too.
With all the eyes on the situation and a future Super Bowl contract, they may have to look at replacing them with LEDs!

“The engineer's first problem in any design situation is to discover what the problem really is.” Unk.

I believe S&C has a large size ups system, but not knowing the loading it may take more than one.

It's a football game that broke out the other night at the Beyonce concert in New Orleans.
