so, you got a suggestion of a surge protector. which is always a good idea; they can't hurt in any way.

but because you mention "unstable" electricity and high voltages, not lightning, i'm afraid surges might not be your problem/concern. rather, you're some place where the power grid should run at (for instance) 120V, but is occasionally running at 130V or 140V (or worse?!).

is that the case?

if so:

  1. do you have any idea how high the voltage is getting to?
  2. read the label on your piano's power adapter. it should look something like this: https://learn.adafruit.com/assets/1104 you'll see there is an "INPUT" line. yours will have one too. the example supply just lists "120VAC" as the input. yours may say "90-220VAC" or "110-140VAC" or any number of other things. so long as your country's power stays within those bounds, you should be 100% ok. the power adapter was designed to work within those bounds, and will usually work _better_ the higher the voltage, so long as it doesn't go over the maximum number.

    if you can't interpret what is written on the back, please post a picture here and i'll look at it.

    if your power adapter can't tolerate the voltages your country is producing, you've got two options.

  3. the simple, expensive option is to buy an automatic voltage regulator: https://www.amazon.com/Tripp-Lite-Conditioner-Regulation-LS606M/dp/B00006B83G/ that will adjust the voltage up and down as necessary to produce 120V from whatever your grid is giving you. these things are also heavy and might be expensive to ship to you. if you're not in a 120V country I can probably still find an appropriate one, but i'd need to know what country you're in.
  4. the more complicated option is to try and replace the power adapter with one that will handle a wider range of voltages, while still being compatible with your piano. that might cost only $10-$20 (plus shipping to wherever you are, but they're small.) i can try to find one for you, but i'd need to know at a minimum your piano, a picture of the power adapter, the power adapter's plug, and what country you're in.

    neither option will negatively impact the quality of your piano's sound.

You see anything cheap? All the A/C conditioners appear to be quite expensive.

This one is 70 bucks, but claims to regulate the voltage and clean up noise: http://www.amazon.com/Tripp-Lite-LS606M-Conditioner-Outlet/dp/B00006B83G

It feels like you would at best buy one and run extension cords to the light houses.
