单词	brownout
释义	brownout /ˈbraʊnaʊt / noun chiefly North American A reduction in or restriction on the availability of electrical power in a particular area.With Edison's new system, brown-outs and black-outs were frequent, along with breakage and, at times, sparking and fires from short circuits and poor wiring.... As the California power crisis of this summer demonstrates, deregulation brings with it the added risk of brown-outs and even black-outs that no facility can afford. Likewise, everyone has access to heat or lights with a simple flick of a switch; we don't suffer brown-outs or rolling blackouts, like some areas of the Third World. Origin 1940s: after blackout.
