Along the same line of utilities... My wife is a y2k project leader for a utility co that you would recognize. They tried a test on a thermocoupling about 2 months ago. In an off peek hour, they simply changed the date to 12/31/99 23:50 to see what would happen. (yeah unbelievable) Shut down 1/3 of the plant. As it turns out, the thermocoupling was averaging temperature over time. Spikes in temperature are common so the only valid way to monitor is to average it. The system assumed an overheat status and shut down th generator. Other generators attempted to pick up the slack, but the relay cascaded because of overload. Only took 1/2 hour to recover but you get the picture. At least they are aware of it now.
