How are node penalties determined?

Let’s say I’m running a node at home and the power goes out. At the instance the power goes out my node was not running computations. The power comes back on after one hour.

  1. Can I get penalized for my node going down while not running computations?

  2. Can my node get chosen during that hour offline and consequently get penalized?

Thanks

Wow. thank you for the quick response. I’m happy to hear it. I was afraid I would be penalized for something beyond my control. That’s great. Can’t wait to get my node going. Guess I should start following the twitter too. :slight_smile:
