I'm stumped,
A home inspector tested the water line entering a townhouse and found 1.7 amps. I also found 1+ amps on the water line. I thought that for sure the foreign amperage was coming from the service, but I disconnected the ground from the water line there was still current on the water pipe. I turned off the main breaker and it was still there. Also with the power off I was getting the same reading on the neutral, with the ground off. Has anyone had a similar experience?
Thanx Alex
