          Pulp and paper processing facilities typically operate
        
        
          24/7. Methods used to avoid extremely high-cost
        
        
          downtime include specifying higher performing
        
        
          equipment and materials to extend electrical system
        
        
          life and reduce lifecycle costs, scheduling preventive
        
        
          maintenance at specific intervals instead of waiting
        
        
          for equipment failure, and the use of plug-and-play
        
        
          power systems to keep individual processes operating
        
        
          while performing maintenance in other areas.
