Our DPX-250 seems to be prone to the having the main breaker (on/off switch)
tripping with power fluctuations. (The SGI-Indy usually is unaffected). We may
have "dirty" power here, I am not sure. The problem is, of course, that when
the system shuts off, so do the cooling fans. It occurs mainly in spring
and summer with thunder storms.

Does anyone know if a uninterruptable power supply (USP) will help us with this
situation? Any info or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Curtis
