    Power buzzing after 5pm, help please!

    I've not been using the electrics, so I wont need to replace anything that blows up. It doesnt seem to do anything to A/C stuff like the landlords white goods.

    Power buzzing after 5pm, help please!

    Right - this has been going on for too long now! Between 5pm and midnight every day my electricity supply is faulty and items such as my TV and computer buzz from their power supplies. This is loud enough to stop me watching tv :( We've had two electricians look at the property and both...
