Hi... I was wondering, I have a fridge and microwave plugged into the same outlet. When the microwave is on, lights dim in my apartment. Back in May, my fridge compressor was suddenly shot. We got a close to new fridge given to us to replace it. Within 2 months, the fridge stopped working, the freezer is working because this one is 2 separate parts instead of one. My question is... could it be the wiring in that outlet? Could it be the microwave sending a surge every time its used? I don't think it's a coincidence but I figured I would start with asking since getting our landlord to fix anything is like pulling teeth. Thanks for any help!
