Reply to "Is my Z4000 killing my TIUs?"

Yes , your in coming line voltage is probably spiking from voltage surges coming into your house! I wold contact your power company and have a meter put on your line. And have them monitor your incoming power for voltage surges I seriously doubt there is any thing wrong with our Z4000! Also I would suggest you purchase an UPS power supply which will not let a spikes go thru to your Z4000 ! I recently had to repair a tiu which was damaged from surges coming into the house and told him to do the same thing ! He purchased a UPS switching power supply which runs off of a battery to create AC from a DC and the incoming power keeps the battery charged and when you loose power momentarily there is no spikes created because the AC is developed from the doc battery! You can buy battery powered UPS at many stores such as staples, etc even seen them on eBay ! Good luck. Keep us informed how you make out ! Sac Tech Alan
