will gps rollover affect SCADA systems/electric generation?greenspun.com : LUSENET : TimeBomb 2000 (Y2000) : One Thread |
The Global Positioning System will roll over to 00 on August 22, 1999. I understand that the SCADA systems depend on GPS for time and date info in order to adjust the flow of electricity (or, in some cases, gas or water). Will the rollover cause a breakdown in the distribution of electricity?

I would go over to www.euy2k.com and ask that same question in their open forum.
