Voltage spikes
I believe someone was recently talking about voltage spikes, though I
can't find the thread in Google Groups to hang this on. I happened to be watching my consumption thingy this morning and noticed that it was constant at 249 volts. Then it went up to 250 for 30 seconds, back down to 249, then back up to 250 again. For a good five minutes it hovered around 249-250. Then it came down to 248, then 247. Aren't these spikes damaging to sensitive equipment? (TVs, DVD Players etc) I don't worry about the PC because I have a UPS on it. The voltage is ~supposed~ to be 240 in the UK. MM |
