Quick question, i'll make it as simple as i can...
i have a rental home with fuses. Theres a main box, with 4 fuses (the small round type). Above those 4, are two "MAIN" fuse things....when you pull out the MAIN fuse thing, there's two 60a time delay fuses in it (they look like huge old-car fuses...cylinder in shape and maybe 3 inches long). Remember, there's 2 main fuse things
So my tenant calls, says 1/2 the house is out of electricity (was running multiple space heaters)...she changed all small fuses and no go. so i tell her to check the main fuse things...none look blown. So i have her physically swap the 2 big car-like fuses from MAIN FUSE THINGY 1 with the big car-like fuses in MAIN FUSE THINGY 2. Nothing...no power anywhere. So she switches them back, and BAM...all the lights are on everywhere.
WTF??anuy ideas?
