Based, unfortunately, on personal experience, you have a slowly
dying power cable. You have about 8 months (give or take) from
the when the problem initially began. To avoid buying an
overpriced Apple replacement part, check web sites for a
replacement cable.
When you say power cable, which part do you mean ?
My adapter only has the psu with cable and the plug that
plugs into 230V, not the long mains cable.

You will need to replace the unit that runs from the Book to the
adapter. On my unit, the cable from the adapter to the electric plug
works fine. Because I dawdled on buying a replacement cable, I had to
shell out $85 for a replacement Apple power cable. Hence, I have 2
units that have the long electric plug but only 1 cable that runs
from the Book to the adapter.
On the bright side, I unplug the cable at the adapter source and put
the Book and the adapter into my bag because I keep one long electric
cable at the house, one long electric cable at the office, and the
plug only in my bag (just in case).
