Oct 24, 2021 at 17:48 | comment | added | Harper - Reinstate Monica | Go to the circuit panel and turn OFF all 240V (2-pole) breakers (not the main). Yes, really. Turn them off, even if the appliance is already non-functional. Water heater, range, dryer, A/C, etc. Now tell me the status of the "weak circuits". Are they dead as a stone now? | |

Breveleri | There's one "dual" breaker...that is physically loose in the breaker box...and the label is crossed out, so I guess it's unused - If it has wires attached to it, it is almost certainly not "unused", and if it is in use, it is probably the cause of the symptoms you describe. | |

Everything else must be done by a licensed electrician hired by the landlord. The power company only checked their stuff to the meter, pass the meter is the owners problem. | |
