I had a problem with my electrical at home. I hope I could get some feedback here. I experience some electrical spike at home. Whenever anyone switch on or off an electrical appliances, my speaker will "Dup". My friend told me it was irregular voltage. So far, 1 power supply (PC) and 2 DVD players have been toasted. Should I call TNB or should I call an electrician? in addition, after checking with my friend regarding electrical bill, I noted that my bill is far higher than my friend whose usage is slightly higher than mine. (No foul play) Is this somehow related?

They got the device to test.

If you switching ON/OFF, either speaker got sound or some light blinking, maybe the switch is dirty with some carbon on the contact. Either change that socket switch or clean it up the contact if you know how.
I have this problem and mostly the light in blinking. I search the switch and clean the contact side.

Also check what recent equipments you add. Sometime is the equipment that cause the problem.
