    Hi everyone, any chance for some help? What could cause the kitchen lights, that are on a circuit that has recently died to come on when I turn on the stove, a couple other circuits have died too, one only has 70 volts between hot to neutral , but between hot and ground it's 110, I've investigated a dropped neutral with a multimeter with the old style (Edison) fuse box opened up, and everything is checking out ok, I guess I do not know what the proper test is to find problem. I always use new insulated gloves, tools, and shoes. The two 60's(main) two 35's(stove) the two 20's(waterpump, Washer) and six 15 amp(rest of house) fuses are all good. Please help, Thank you.

    Awesome video dude! Just found your channel. I had a customer that was having random voltage spikes at there house. Found an issue up at the transformer and called it in to the utility company they came and fixed it. Long story short customer called back lights flickering again and as I was testing their main lugs I was getting random voltage spikes up to 190 volts on a single leg. Utilities came back out and by the time they got there it was back to 120v. Any idea what could cause a voltage spike like that coming from the utility company?

    Common misconception: "phase" = a hot leg. So how is both a 240V circuit & a 120V circuit "single phase"? Phase is a hot-to-hot connection. In single phase there is only one possibility, A-B. In 3-phase, AB, BC & CA (3 single phase options) are possible, that's the key.

    I like a man that thinks ahead. Unfortunately energy is going to be free, very soon. Wires and meters were never necessary. Just a way to know how much to charge. Along with the control we allowed them to have. No what nesara gesara is, BRICS is changing everything. Know how to think. Not what to think. Worst think you could ever give any inspector, is a badge. I feel sorry for what electricians have gone through.

    When I hear "It was 75 yesterday and 15 and snowing today" I thought, huh, sounds like Colorado! Thanks for this video, trying to diagnose flickering in my house and have already gone through a bunch of stuff and still scratching my head. Something like a vacuum starting up on one circuit will cause lights to dim on a different circuit, even with "flicker free" LED bulbs.

    2 prong receptacles must be replaced with gfci receptacles and labeled "not grounded" whenever new 2 prong receptacles are not available per code. Cheap house flippers won't spend the $10 even though the GFCI becomes a selling point, and all downline receptacles are protected as well. New code may want AFCI/GFCI combos now.

  • @timcarver2914
    @timcarver2914 Місяць тому

    To be fair, LG should have made that internal wire be white, so the correct thing to do would have been a little more obvious. The wire needs to be moved from under the screw bonding it to the frame and attached to the neutral terminal (where the white wire ends from the cord). It has to be attached to the neutral, it can't be just left taped off, because the dryer likely has some 120v loads (timers and such). It is amazing to me that the outdoor service panel bus was left hot and unattended by the electrician while he went inside the house. I could see leaving the panel open for a few minutes if it was indoors with access to the area controlled, or if an adult was guarding it, but in this situation any curious neighborhood child able to reach that nice shiny bus could be killed. If I was the professional liability insurer and saw this video, I'd revoke the policy. This whole thing is just too much.
