I've known of houses with broken down insulation in the lead in wire,
creating a high energy bill. So, it's a real condition.


More total bull****. That would burn the house down
long before you got the bill. As Mike said, if the
connection where so hot it was shining brightly in the
daylight... and indeed that is what it would take to
create a high energy bill, and it *would* set fire to
something.
