Here is a hypothetical with it's roots in reality. A house is undergoing major renovation with all wiring disconnected. Temporary wiring is then run from the panel by the contractor and utilized for all tools and site needs.One line also feeds the work trailer with a small refrigerator which is on constantly. The main panel box is not grounded, and the grounding clamp on the grounding rod is loose. Sometime during the night, the neutral conductor at the service point drops out due to a faulty, substandard connection utilizing an undersized and dissimilar metal connector. What can we expect?
