thank you. we were freaking out. I do know the CG boxes receptacles and breakers have not been changed in years. We have been in this same spot for at least 4. I had helped out here last year and at memorial weekend, we replaced at least 15 breakers and a few receptacles.
hopefully last question. since part of the wires on the power cord were burnt, should we replace the power cord as well? And should the breaker on CG box have tripped?
and fyi...we are testing voltage on CG box and then a friend is going to test it with his meter. First test showed 150v, but hubby not sure if he is doing it right
