Madison, WI – June 26, 2006 – Power outages are both inconvenient and costly. According to research conducted by Lawrence Berkley National Laboratory, the U.S. loses $80 billion annually due to power outages and interruptions. Momentary power interruptions, which are more frequent than sustained outages, account for the majority of the losses ($52 billion). Fortunately, momentary power interruptions are easily preventable with the proper power surety equipment. JT Packard, the nation’s largest independent provider of critical power solutions, recently announced an equipment rental program; this flexible program seeks to make power surety equipment accessible for all budgets. The company plans to offer customized rental agreements for all types and brands of power surety equipment. Short- and long-term rentals will be available, and service will be included with select agreements. In addition, JT Packard will offer a rent-to-own option.
