Bizarre clock behavior [RE-wrenches]

[Chris Meier]

X10 communication is the system that sends signals through the power
lines. The filters limit single interference that can accrue within the
home power system.

Andrew,
 
We had a customer who used a certain security system that could be
activated via his home phone. He could call in turn light on/off by
sending signals though the house electric lines. The brand name escapes
me but when the inverter kicked on or off lights in the house would turn
on or off. We purchased filters at Radio shack and this solved the
problem and he could still use the security system.

We have a customer whose clock radio is running fast by about 5-7
minutes per day - but only while the sun is shinning - ever since we
commissioned his 2.3kW Sunpower PV system.  The more power he makes
the faster the clock goes.  My only thought is that the clock has such
low resistance that a little extra current is running through it as
power is being pushed onto the grid.

Any thoughts?

more than we could ever use in just about 8 minutes. And it's
wireless!"
