We lost power for about 10 minutes yesterday, but long enough for the generator to spin up. Afterwards, none of my 3 Z-wave receptacles (Enerwave ZW15R) were communicating. Generator power isn't the cleanest, but is it likely to be the cause of these devices falling off? If so, could someone recommend a better brand?

Once back on "regular" power tripping the breakers should reset the state of the switches. I see this from time to time when we loose power. A power breaker flip solves this issue.
Two of the receptacles are on the generator circuits and one is not. The one that came back is on a generator circuit, so of the two that are still failed, one is and one is not tied to generator.Last edited by phuz; April 10, 2018, 12:58 PM.
