<font size="+1">What's the cause of this behavior?<br>
<br>
Several times during the last few days the local electricity has
blinked off and then back on again, staying off long enough to
turn off computers, cause the microwave oven to indicate PF (power
failure), and re-set electric clocks to 12:00 AM. Some
countermeasures are in place or possible, including 9-volt backup
batteries in clocks and UPSs (uninterruptible power supplies) into
which the computers are plugged. <br>
<br>
Aside from the annoyance at resetting devices, and the potential
danger of lost or scrambled computer data, there may well be more
serious and costly effects at other locations. So, why is
electricity delivery more irregular recently? <br>
