Can a power conditioner cause electrical problems?

I recently bought an Isotek Orion Power line Conditioner with Isotek Elite 5 foot Power cord on Audiogon.
Last night as I was hooking up a new amplifier to it, The juice in the electrical outlet cut off.
It went dead.  I had to switch to another outlet.
 I have been noticing other strange behaviors while using this conditioner, including temporary loss of power to components.
Is it possible this conditioner is causing problems? I’m afraid to use it at this point.

Yes, the unit and cord were both used.

The breaker was not tripped. I didn't lose power on any other outlet on the circuit.
In fact, plugged it into another outlet in the same circuit and it worked fine.
Just the one outlet was affected.
As far as I know, the power is still out there.  I don’t want to plug anything in.

Everything is working fine in the alternate outlet.

Elizabeth,
 I gave it a few days, then plugged it in again.
You were right.  Everything’s working!
Thank you so much for your help.
