If you call and explain the dimming to electric company they will come out and put a monitoring device on your meter. They leave it for ~ 1 week. They did this for my house and found a bad connection out in the street. My neighbor was pissed cause they tore up his driveway to fix it. Sorry this is going out to all but for some reason I don't see Liz's email address..

Hi all,
I think we have a bad refrigerator here, possibly problems also compounded by an inadequate elex cicsuit. Elex is owned & paid by landlord, who thinks this is "no big deal" & "happens all the time No problem."
Maintence is not this building owner's favorite occupation. Person is on a tight budget just like most of the rest of the world.
Proibem: Lights go dim whenever dying refrigerator comes on. This unit rins apprix 40 minutes per every hour, even on cool days with minimum opening/closing.
I am concerned about longevity and function of my computers. power supplies, modem and router (I own these & they are nice). One printer already fried when Handyman shorted hot and cold elex together in the process of replacing one light swich in kitchen. Hope never to see him again, he's not a bright bulb.
Is there some way to monitor the currrent on the elex line for several days and record what's going on? If so, does someone have a monitoring device that could be loaned and set up to do this?
I am in Woircester near Elm Park, & am a very good cook. Have decent chairs & workspace with fast internet... could provide free beer & P1zzA or lunch if needed during setup period.
Thanks mightily, Liz J
