Electrical sparks require immediate attention
Sparks were flying just above the breaker box Friday morning. I investigated.
 Twenty-some wires entered the box trough one hole. The hole with sharp edges, was maxed out.
There were wires in there, which should have bypassed the breaker box completely.
With the main breaker off, I had to gently pull wires out of the single hole and insert them into a second hole, all by flashlight.
I found the damaged wire, inspected and patched it temporarily.
Asked around to find an electrician who could replace the box.
Next thing I know I have the city light truck in front of my house.
They estimated it to be a one-and-a-half hour job.
Saturday, two electricians showed up on their normal day off.
I couldn't ask for better qualifications, than two guys working for city electric.
During the dis-assembly, they were astounded how shoddy the workmanship was.
Quite often they were chuckling and on the verge of hysterical laughter.
They worked nine to five, they'll be back Sunday morning to finish the job
