Poor power in the house

Just moved house and had the electrician come and redo the fuse board and give an overall inspection of the house.

Its ok for normal stuff but my setup - Rega Brio and Planar 3 could do some a nicer supply.

Just wondering what I should be looking at, I see a lot of conversations about power supplies and cables but a bit lost on what I should be looking at.

The power in the house not the power coming to the house

Was thinking of getting the Rega Power cord and the TT PSU, but open to other suggestions, I am based in the UK too.

Thanks

Thanks for the replies have been looking into surge protection, also the TT PSU as well.

What about for the AMP? Would a decent cable help there also? Been looking at these -  Stratus 7 Power

Definitely. Aftermarket (audiophile) power cables do make a difference in sonics. But it takes some research and auditioning to find the right cable.
  Check online to see what other Rega amp owners are using. Check the Rega forum.

ZeroSurge makes a bunch of good gear to clean up power and keep transient surges from backfeeding into ground lines (they patented series line surge supression). They in the East Coast timezone in the US (-5 GMT). Call them up and see if they have any suggestions.

PS Audio also make some really nice power conditioners, etc.

A shunted breaker feeds back into the ground...which is not good for sensitive electronics.
