Question – Shocked with the Circuit Breakers Off?
|
|
Why did my electrician get an electrical shock if he turned off all the breakers?
|
If the electrician has turned off all the breakers in my apartment, why would he get an electrical shock from the wiring in the light in the hall?
[ad#block]It would seem that there was a circuit that was still energized. I can only speculate that he overlooked one circuit breaker, or another source of power to that area.
