My Sony KF60XBR800 keeps shutting off. At the same tine, it causes the surge protector to trigger and shut off the power. I have to manually turn back on the surge protector. The only other component that's on is my Directv receiver, which seems to be working fine. I've replaced the lamp once before but the symptoms were different. I don't think the lamp will cause the power to blow on all my components or am I wrong? has anyone seen this before?
Surge protectors only work in one direction--from the power supply to the machine and are there to dampen a sudden over voltage surge in power supply-- lighting strike or power surge after grid failure or outage
I am thinking that the unit you keep switching on is an earth leakage unit or circuit breaker that is in the system to prevent electrical shocks from bad insulation or low performing components
if that is the case you have a potential short in the unit and should have the machine checked out at an appliance shop

It turns out the problem was the surge protector, not the TV. After the surge protector was unable to reset, I replaced it and no longer have a problem.
