Mains power quality should be that of
a typical commercial or hospital
environment. If the user of the Nicolet
Cortical Stimulator requires continued
operation during power mains
interruptions, it is recommended that
the Nicolet Cortical Stimulator be
powered from an uninterruptable
power supply or a battery.
