It would appear that there was a surge connected to that: first the chlorine generator for my swimming pool packed a sad, then my computer's power supply literally exploded with a loud bang and a cloud of smoke and then our water pump died as well, due to a melted capacitor in the motor. All within 3-4 days.
The water pump repair man related that one of his air conditioning units and one computer there died also.
So it's time for an insurance claim, I think. But I cannot for the life of me remember which exact day the power outage happened.
Can anyone jog my memory, please?
