停电/水
blackout
power outage /'atd/
water suspension /s'spen()n/
water stoppage /'stpd/
Traditionally in English (British and American), an electricity blackoutis also a power cut, which is also a power outage. A blackout often carries the sense of accidental non-supply more than an outage does.
传统上，在英语(英式和美式)中，electricity blackout(断电)也叫power cut，也是power outage.。与outage相比，blackout通常会带点儿意外断电的感觉。
Water non-supply is traditionally water suspension(intentional) or a water stoppage (accidental). There’s no particular reason for it — it’s just conventional usage. Of course, no one speaks of a water blackout (because water doesn’t ‘light’ or ‘lit’).
水不供了应通常是water suspension(故意的)或water stoppage(意外的)。这并没有什么特别的原因，只是习惯用法。当然，没有人会说water blackout(因为水不会亮或不亮)。
除了上边这几个说法，
还有几个很简单日常的说法
electricity go down
power cut
power out
water be (shut/cut) off
without power/water
例：
While I was making dinner, the electricity suddenly went down, I immediately checked my neighbors to see if their power was out, too, or if only my location was affected. And a few minutes later, the power was restored.
当我正在做晚饭的时候，突然停电了，我立即去看了看我的邻居，看看他们是否也停电了，或者是否只有我的位置受到了影响。几分钟后，电力恢复了。
People have daily power cuts, daily water cuts.
民众每天都会遇到停电和停水的情况。
The water's gonna be shut off for the day.
这两天会停水。
