Hi all,
I'm working in a home that has 53-110 volts on the grounding wire. This was discovered by the cable guy's, apparently they have changed out the modems and cable box's three times(Internet/TV dropping out) I started t/s the problem and found, a multi-wire feed the 2nd floor.
Problem was, as I opened boxes and light fixtures and checked for junction boxes in attic, to find where the neutral and grounding wire were joined or sliced together, the voltages started climbing, 110V. I opened every switch and ceiling fixtures(no recessed yet) hoping to find this splice. I know it the multi wire circuit, cause it drops to 0-1v when turned off.
Does anyone have an idea that would help t/s this better or If this has been posted before i would like to get that post please, thanks you for all your ideas and comments.
