A Correct answer
Explanation

'Erratic' means inconsistent, irregular, or unpredictable in behavior - perfect for describing a power supply that causes machinery to be idle. 'Sudden' is a one-time event, not a persistent quality; 'bad' is vague; and 'least' is grammatically incorrect and semantically nonsensical in this context.
