I suspect the circuit tracks the sine wave curve of the incoming grid power (like a zero voltage switch circuit does). If so, the shut off will occur in a fraction of 1/60th of a second.

Let’s see if Newsom signs it. With the way he tried to push through liability limits for electric companies (who seem to be too good at creating wildfire disasters) I have my doubts. His presidential ambitions have led him down the dark path of caring more about corporate sponsorship than voters.

Wow, that’s a lot. For the record: except for smog testing there are no inspections in CA. And I’m not even sure those are required state-wide.
Just not a good one.

I asked because in Southern California the occurrence of breakdown seems quite low in comparison. Maybe because the weather isn’t as hard on cars?
