ABSTRACT:
A power loss alarm system in which an electric power supply is connected to a relay so that the relay is energized while the power supply is on. If the power supply fails, or if the voltage is reduced below a certain minimum amount, the relay is de-energized and an alarm signal is activated. The alarm signal is connected to second source of electric power, a battery, for example, so that power loss in the power circuit will not prevent actuation of the alarm. The system includes a selector switch having an "OFF" position, an "ON" or "RETURN" position in which the system is checked and is also operative to sound the alarm when power returns to the system, and a "LOSS" position in which the system is operative to indicate the occurrence of loss of power.
