When we had issues / questions about the power in our shop, the local 
utility was happy to bring a data logger out and tied it into our power 
for a week.  They didn't find any issues, but our problem continued 
until a nearby plant closed and moved out.  So, they might be able to 
help, or not, but I believe it was free.  Likely the power was inside 
the range specs, but just barely, and the VFD on our Cold Saw was just a 
touch too sensitive to odd currents.
