In the event of a power outage, the elevator will stop and remain safely in place until power is restored. Modern elevator systems are designed with multiple safety features to ensure occupants are secure at all times. Once utility power returns, the elevator will resume normal operation.
Most residential systems handle 2–4 floors, though some specialty models can serve more, depending on local code and manufacturer specifications.
