An “open nuetral” electrical house problem.

748 views

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.

A neutral is just a ground, it’s the white wire in your electrical box. You can pull your outlets and see if there is a loose white wire
