*The DEC and FEC are collective indicators, accompanied by ANEEL through subdivisions in the concession areas of distribution, called electrical assembly. The DEC (Equivalent Length of Interruption per Consumer Unit) indicates the number of hours that an average consumer is left without power for a period, usually months or years. The FEC (Equivalent Frequency of Interruption per Consumer Unit) indicates how often, on average, there was an interruption in the consumer unit (residence, commerce, industry etc.).
