Because the faut would have been in the cabinet, which could be a street or two away and maybe even on a different little substation..
Also some stuff is more susceptable to low power causing problems, to get techie a badly made switch mode PSU can open up the voltage line if the power drops and it has a fault, so instead of getting 12v it's not uncommon to get a to higher..
Lightning strikes (miles away) and other problems could also exhibit the same symptoms
