For no apparant reason (refrigerator cycling or heat system coming on, etc) the lights throughout my home are dimming on a consistent basis...then within a second returning to full strength. This has just started in the past 24 hours. What should I check or who should I phone first? I live in a city, on a corner lot with a service pole at the back of my property line that regulates several homes on my block. I have had problems with non-detectable surges in the past. (No visible surges in the lights, yet enough to damage an old computer. This was resolved when I purchased a UPS protector for my current computer system) but the surges/spikes have never been to this extent of dimming the lights. The home is 33 years old......but with all modern appliances, etc. Is there any immediate danger? Thanks!
