About ten days ago I posted a problem I was having concerning electrical current in my water pipes. I’m finally able to report that the power company was here and the problem is gone. It was caused by a bad connection (oxidation) in the neutral in the next pole upstream from my transformer. They kept arguing that the problem was in my house, but armed with some of your replies, I convinced them to look upstream at the neutral.
Many thanks to all of you who replied. Special thanks to Bill and Dan who hit he nail right on the head.

That's really cool. A bunch of breaktimers kicked it around,ya showed the info to poco, they fixed it and admitted it was their problem, and ya let everyone know the outcome (very rare).

Do you have the address to the POCO so that I could send them my bill?

A-holes. Hey every group has to have one. And I have been elected to be the one. I should make that my tagline.
