Those fuses at the top of the pole are very big and make a loud sound when they trip. I don't think they are 120 volt fuses. I think they must be 7200v.

Hi Kerry.

Yes, I know the fuses on the top of the pole that are very big are indeed rated PRIMARY voltage --- might be 7200 or something else.....7200 is very common though.

What I meant when I said 120v is only coming from 1 leg FROM the transformer is that maybe one of the windings in the transformer went out....so the other 120v leg is dead.

OR what might be going on......is different transformers are used to feed different legs of a secondary 120v circuit on the poles.......and it's configured incorrectly.

A call to your power company.....if you could ever talk to a lineman or engineer would straighten it out.

YOU are sure that one leg of your fuse panel/box is not off, correct???

.........LOL..........you get to talk to people who barely know their own name.

You NEVER get to talk to a person with some intelligence.


I want to speak to Dell to find out which onboard video they are using on their motherboard on a specific desktop. NFW can you get an answer to this question. Every single one of them reads the same script that I can read right on their website.

I knew BC would get my humor.
