The past couple of weeks I've been having issues with power in my home. My lights will occasionally flicker, my UPS at my tv/stereo will click to/from backup power, and now my computer upstairs has begun cutting off. The only thing I've come up with is this all happens when my refrigerator compressor kicks in.
I've hooked my kill-a-watt meter to the receptacle to see what the difference was when it actually kicks in, but it is pretty minimal (~200W). The voltage is ranged from 109V-115V. What can I do to correct this problem? Do you think a new fridge would be the cure (current fridge is only 6 yrs old)?
