I know having power cut and then come back on over and over, causing the air conditioner to shut off, and then power back up seems a bit unnerving, but I don't think it hurts the AC. Now, the start up for these AC pulls a hefty amount of electricity. If this happened at home, your electric bill would be affected as each start up pulls more energy than running. But, your AC is designed to automatically cycle on and off based on your thermostat setting. So is there really any difference between the thermostat telling the AC to stop, or a power outage making it stop? (Personally, I don't think so) ... It's just a bit annoying and concerning every time you hear the AC kick on!
