[nylug-talk] Cleaning dirty power

[Randy Rodriguez]

This discussion brings to mind an issue I'm having at my place.  The
*entire* apartment is powered off of a SINGLE 15 amp circuit.  That's
right, the 'fridge, microwave, TV, computers, wall sockets, lights,
etc.  All of it.  We've become very careful about what's drawing
current at any given time, but my question is would having my boxen on
a UPS prevent the fuse from blowing when, for example, the 'fridges
compressor kicks in?  It doesn't do so now (tho there is a visible
sag, e.g. the lights dim), but if I had the microwave running and all
my machines powered up and the compressor started up, it probably
would.
