My lights would momentarily dim when my neighbor's AC would kick in. I called the power company one morning and the were there by the afternoon and found a loose connection on the drop to my house. When in doubt, give you power company a call, it won't cost you anything and they just may find a problem on their side.
Power problems.... Ground, dedicated lines, ect
Might have listed this in the wrong place. Sorry for the double up.
Here is a topic I would love to know the "real answers". Who do you hire to check out your home power coming from your local power company? I had a "local" electrician install 2 dedicated 20 amp outlets. But something tells me my power is not "right". For example, the lights dim when the air conditioner comes on.
1. Can you call your local power company and be assured that the power coming to your breaker box is "right"? How do you get proof? What questions do you ask and are shown that it's right?
2. Is there a brand of breaker box better than what may be installed?
3. Ground? How do you "know" you ground is fully grounded?
4. How do you check outlets? Or find outlet problems?
I have read on here and agree that the best way to build a good system is to start with your power coming to your equipment.
I am using a Furman Elite 20 PFi. Which is their latest greatest before going to their reference products.
I also contacted my cable company and they are changing the signal booster to the new model that is supposed to be up to date.
Any help or info would be appreciated.
