If you are referring to your home it is due to spkies and surges in the electrical service or a loose connection in your service...if you are referring to a car it is due to a bad alternator or ground.

Most power strips have a small neon lamp that indicate power is on. These small lams will start to flicker near the end of the lamp life--much the same way a flourecent light flickers near the end of life. The power strip is still usable, but with flickering or no power-on indication.

However, there are those power strips that use LED lamps which have a longer life expectancy and will not flicker at end of life.
