Anyone have power flickering problems last night? - macuu222 - 08-08-2019
Anyone have power flickering issues last night around 10PM. We live in lower HPP and noticed the power "flickering" last night. Just enough to set the clocks blinking on the microwave and range. Then it was back to normal about an hour later. Not sure if it was HELCO or just us.

Called Helco...they came and checked the line to the house. All is well. So I guess it might be a loose wire in the breaker box or something more. But Im not an electrican...so gonna call one to have it checked out.

I had this happen once. Turned out to be a flaky ground, inadequately bonded to a water pipe, I put in a proper ground clamp and ran a heavier line to the panel, problem went away.

Try pressing the reset and test buttons on your GFI outlets if you have them. Worked for me a long time ago in a place far away. If it's a loose wire in the breaker box you will usually see a discolored wire. Good luck
