Re: Opposite of Power Surge, a Power Wane

Breaker! 50amp GE, has solved the problem, so far everything is working as it should... (fingers crossed) Thank you all for the input!!663Views0likes0CommentsRe: Opposite of Power Surge, a Power Wane

Thanks, have a 'Smart Surge' protector, two lines, with white arrows indicating 'line 1 and 'line 2' with green indicator lights, 'line 2' indicator light is intermittent and 'buzzez' in and out, am thinking about getting a better protector, had one and burned it up using it with my gens one time.... Thank you again, and does that sound like a solution?663Views0likes0CommentsOpposite of Power Surge, a Power Wane
To anyone interested/up to a bit of a challange; for approx. 3 - 4 days,some electric appliances seem to be experiencing a Power Wane, the Washer/Dryer outlet stops feeding electricity, the Microwave appears to have a 'short' the time goes out and the display fades and blinks, can set the time and a couple minutes later it goes and then the fading ... The electric fireplace emits a low 'beeping' and will not turn on. After un=plugging for a time and then re-plugging they seem to work fine for a while, then gone. I thought it may be the 50amp coach parked beside us but he is gone now. Have been in this spot before and no problems, have not heard of any others here, with similar problems, any ideas will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.3KViews0likes11Comments
