This is exactly why I wired my PD surge after the generator. I had a board go out on one generator, it upped the voltage to 160 and fried my microwave.
Pirate, just curious but was the spike a single spike in voltage that occurred and fried the micro? In my case, the gen began shutting off when you'd try to use the microwave, then when I was troubleshooting the problem I had the micro set for 5 mins and when I came back to check on it my microwave was dead, no lights on the microwave worked or anything, so I assumed it was fried. I plugged in another microwave to the same outlet and it worked, so I brought the Microwave in my garbage about 2 hrs later, plugged it up and its working again.
