The Elect service guys say it is squirrels jumping on the transformers and blowing themselves to bits. So the power outage is only a fraction of a second most of the time. Other times we will have it go out for 5 to 10 minutes. The momentary outages are what I am curious to see how this setup handles the situation. As far as I know I did nothing special to get it to work. It just did. -- Dennis M. linux user #180842
