Hi everyone - I recently had major voltage fluctuations in our house and an electrician detected the problem to be a loose neutral from the main transformer to the house. Moreover, it seems that one end of that line is copper while the other end is aluminium - so his recommendation is that I get the entire wire replaced. I am planning to do that.
Can anyone please help me understand what to expect in this process? I am told that the process can take several weeks to line up all the stakeholders in the project (the electric service provider, the excavator and the electrician) and during that time I will have no power to the house so I need to find alternate living arrangements. Also, I would love to understand what this may cost us - even if it is a ballpark.
Many thanks in advance for your replies.
