Instantaneously exploding appliances? Yah, right! said by Xzibit :Or cause this story is fake. said by sonofjay :Uh huh, it was obvious. We should all believe what everyone writes in the first person here at DSLR? Link anyone? So, apparently three posters here have never had the lights in a customer's house dim out or flash when they've disconnected a cable at the ground-block. Trust me, it DOES happen. It's not a regular occurence, but house fires have happened, techs have been injured, taps blown off poles, other drops feeding from the same tap have fried, drastic humbars, amps or LE's blowing fuses...
Yah, it's real. I hope it never happens to you.
We take our chances every single day in the field. We do it for a paycheck, we do it for our families, we do it because most of us really want to do our best. We do it for you.

Upon disconnecting the incoming line, every appliance in my neighbors house instantaneously exploded, a crack opened in the ceiling, and the melted insulation on the cable wire was revealed. Instantaneously exploding appliances? Yah, right! |
