On the chance that there is an electrical expert among us, I pose the following question:
I have a surge protector wired into the main home circuit breaker box, and in addition, a receptacle plug-in surge suppressor that I plug my digital scales into as well. (One for shotgun shell loading in the garage; one for handgun/rifle in another room in the house)
Every time we have an electrical power outage due to severe weather, the lights go out, the whole house generator goes on, and the digital scales get turned on even though they were turned off.
Explanation?
