Answer

What backup power systems do hospitals in Mallorca use during outages?

Hospitals in Mallorca usually rely on redundant systems such as uninterruptible power supplies, diesel generators and automatic transfer switches. These systems are meant to keep essential equipment running when the main supply fails. What matters most is whether they are tested properly and used in a way that protects critical medical areas first.
