The topic is simple. Unfortunately some use English as a

no idea what the many electrical problems are. They 'assume' a
protector will solve all electrical problems. But again, this is
really simple stuff made complicated only because some make
recommendations without basic electrical knowledge.

Finally, a voice of reason; good post. If the earth-loss was the OP's
fault, shame on him, but if it was the grid side's fault, then shame plus
ALL BILLS to them!
