They had all sorts of problems with under voltage (103v out of the wall). Major problem until we finally convinced them that ALL computers on their system needed to have UPS's. UPS's still kick in about a dozen times a day...

We're on the Trumbull/Monroe border near the intersection of 25 and 111 (next to the State of CT's winter sandbox.)

103v is a good day. Even the power company cringes when we insist that they hook up a recording meter...
