CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1002) — Question 294

Which of the following would MOST likely be connected to a computer to provide electricity in case of a blackout?

Answer options

• A. Battery backup
• B. Surge suppressor
• C. Portable generator
• D. Power inverter

Correct answer: A

Explanation

A Battery backup is designed specifically to provide power during outages, making it the most suitable choice for this situation. While a Portable generator can supply power, it is not typically connected directly to a computer. A Surge suppressor protects against power spikes but does not provide power during a blackout. A Power inverter converts DC power to AC but does not inherently supply backup power.
