My coax cables are melting, and I’m trying to work with my cable company, power company, and possibly and electrician. Everything on the internet points to and “open neutral” and I can’t quite get together what it means? Shout out to all the electricians and power guys making sure our houses don’t burn down and our TVs don’t explode, by the way.
Update: Power company and an electrician came out. It wasn’t an open neutral. It was a messed up ground somewhere in my house though. (I think. The pros fixed it lol.) Thank you all for your concern though! Still don’t know jack about electricity.

I had a problem with an occupancy light switch in my house. I replaced a couple thinking they were going bad but eventually I found an outlet that had a neutral wire that was sort of twisted together and no wire nut. It was making an intermittent connection and causing the problem. The other guy is right-find any outlets, etc that are on the same circuit and open them up. Check all the neutrals.
