I guess he assumed that there was power, or no power, but there was no state of "not enough power", just like me.

he said "don't have the power required to complete a wash cycle", meaning the power the stay continuously long enough to finish washing.

I understood it as during the washing cycle power demands fluctuate, peak, and there is not enough power for that. Like memory, your process starts, has a memory peak after 15min and you get an out of memory error. Does not run through.

You're both possibly right -- as in I've seen both those things happen several times a week, for months.

Thanks for the information.
