We end up losing power a few times every summer, but mainly it's because of the humidity and high heat - thunderstorms and the such happen, and wires end up coming down. The electrical companies around here aren't exactly the best at answering calls either.
As far as in my house - my dad is a hell of an electrician - he did it for a few years before he went into carpentry, so we hardly ever have a problem in our house.
