Part of home electrical s
I had something very similar happen years ago, when half my home's
circuits went dead. I called my city electric company, they came out, checked my main panel, went out to the transformer across the street, climbed up, and found that the "temporary" splices or clamps put in when the house's electric service was upgraded many, many years before, had never been upgraded to "permanent" ones. Eventually corrosion worked its way in and cut off one side of my 240V service. Apparently the final electrical inspection had never been done, which would have caught that error. That's what I recall of their explanation. They replaced the defective splices at no charge to me. |
