Last year F&F were "changing taps" at our sub-station so they temporarily fed us from a more distant sub-station. Sitting at the computer my UPS unit kept beeping. Went down to my workshop and the flourescent lights were really making noise. Put a meter in one of the outlets - 149.6 volts! Ran around unplugging everything I could. By the time I hit the second floor it toasted two TV sets. That one cost F&F $750 for two new TVs because I had the record that my UPS made of the over voltage condition.
Which just goes to show, if you want something royally screwed up give it to private industry.
