Blackout

The Blackout is an event resulting from the Coolant Pumps being disabled that results in a complete loss of electricity at Site-64 due to the Generators overheating. This blackout prevents Warhead Detonation, severely disrupts the site's lighting, and compromises the containment of SCP-106. During the blackout, the Femur Breaker cannot be activated, and the magnets restraining SCP-106 are disabled. To enhance visibility and avoid instant death from SCP-173, it is recommended to use Night Vision Goggles.
To trigger a blackout, both Coolant Pumps in the Coolant Room must be sabotaged, cutting off coolant flow to the Generator Room. It takes about 1 minute for the coolant pumps to go offline and a few more minutes for all three generators to shut down completely. Only members of the Chaos Insurgency and Class-D personnel can initiate a blackout. To reboot the generators and restore power to the site, both coolant pumps must be operational and refilled.
