What is also dangerous is a loose neutral.  You have three wires coming into the house.  Black to black is 220v.

From either insulated black to the bare neutral is 110v.  If only the neutral is cut to the house, the 220v will balance

according to the two totalized 110v circuit loads.    It might be 200v on some lights/outlets and 20v on the other lights/outlets.

A guy had a power transformer burned on a subwoofer.........I told him you have a loose neutral - it will burn down your house.

After I get a whatever, his house burns to the ground a month later.  Basically you will have some stuff bright and some stuff dim.

It will kill electronics quickly.  Ask BT Express about his stuff when the tree branch unplugged his neutral.......................

If this happens,  pull the big breaker to off.  If your 110v/220v outlets are over 130/260,  call Alabama Power.  If they are over 135/270, shut it off

and call Alabama Power. 

Knowing the electrical pressure  (volts) and water pressure (psi) wouldn't be a bad idea.

A UPS is handy for your computer/modem/router/majicjack.  PM me for anything electrical/electronic.
