Dirty/bad power - possible?

I'm no electrician, so I'm hoping someone can help..

Over the last few years, we've had a horrible run of electrical appliances dying.

- TV
- DVD player (or two)
- Stereo (twice)
- Computer
- Dishwasher (just recently - trips the power safety switch when we try and turn it on)
- One element on stove top (recently, maybe not related. other 3 elements are fine)
- Iron (just today - trips the power safety switch when we try and turn it on)

Is it possible there's something wrong with the power coming into our house that's causing these electrical appliances to fry?
Or is it just bad luck/bad coincidence?

Is it something an electrician could check for?

Thanks
