Guy at the big box store said they sell a lot of appliances after an extended grey-out.

After losing power, I disconnect refrigerators/etc. until power comes back for at least 10 minutes. There's usually some fluctuation until the branch is stabilized, and motors don't like low voltage. Everyone's appilances are going to be working hard then.
