Re: [IRCA] Electrical QRM question

["Kenneth Nawalkowski" <kennethnaw@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,
    Another possibility is a poor or loose connection in the wiring 
somewhere or a corroded connection at the ground rod. I would check all 
connections on every wire in the service panel and everything ahead of the 
panel coming into your house to make sure none are loose or corroded.
