Ten minutes. That is how long Mr Mohamed Nasir Mohamed Ismail, a technical officer with SP Group's electricity operations, and his mobile generator unit team have to prepare before leaving their Pasir Panjang base when they are activated during a power failure.
The 20-strong team operates in three-man groups, each comprising a leader, an assistant and a driver, around the clock.
