I suggest plugging the machines into a power strip with SURGE SUPRESSION. these strips may cost a bit more but if the power is wonky in the house, or there's a lightning strike, it can save your electronics. Also, unplug the machine when not in use.
don't know HOW it happened, but all my equipment is plugged into surge protectors. just lucky ,i guess !
