    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-line_flicker

    Power-line flicker is a visible change in brightness of a lamp due to rapid fluctuations in the voltage of the power supply. The voltage drop is generated over the source impedance of the grid by the changing load current of an equipment or facility.

  3. Brownout (electricity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brownout_(electricity)

    The heat output of any resistive device, such as an electric space heater, toaster, oven, and incandescent bulbs is equal to the power consumption, which is directly proportional to the square of the applied voltage if the resistance stays constant. Therefore, a significant reduction of heat output will occur with a relatively small reduction ...
