ANOTHER power surge S5

Recommended Posts

This has got to be the 5th one in 3 months everything flickered on and off.

 

Its just getting a bit stupid we have things that could break and we've thought have broke after a surge.

 

Is anyone else had any of these surges???

I know this might sound odd, but did something weird just happen in the firthpark/firvale/longley area?

A few minutes ago all my power went off for a few seconds, which wouldn't be so weird except loads of car alarms suddenly started going off at the same time. Which seems a bit weird. Did anyone else notice this or was it just a bizarre coincidnece?

Ha! The joys of a fully charged laptop ;) Shiregreen = caralarms going off everywhere! And house alarms. Strange. My cooker and tv didnt go off though, just my lights :confused: Thought i'd tripped the switch at first!

Yeah, thats what I found weird. House alarms I can see why, they are on mains power, but why would it make car alarms go off??? All my power went off, but only for a few seconds if that. I was surprised it all came back on because some of my trips are a bit jumpy and I normally have to go and reset them.
