  Now I am CERTAIN that you either have  a) a UPS, or b), you have had your
  incoming power supply monitored for at least a week recently...

  We had a similar experience several years ago with a venerable and well-
  loved DEC 2060.  It did not occur as frequently or continue as long as
  yours'.  The problem ?  A semi-loose apx. 20-gauge, apx. 2" wire segment...
