Do you count power going out for a few seconds? I feel like that happens at least once a month, whereas that was hugely irregular in the UK?
I have never experienced that in the various places in the US I have lived.
I have lived in an old building where the voltage could and would sometimes drop too much for modern electronics to handle. A power conditioner or UPS resolved that if you run into that particular problem.
yes I have four UPSeseses in my house!
It's tempting to blame it on the house, but I've lived in four different places (although all in the same area) — three houses and one apartment that all do it.
