Doug1647545489 Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 So you shut off each breaker one by one and couldn't figure out what the draw was? I would think if it's a real reading and the meters not fucked, it would be easy to figure out what was sucking up all that power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks to be the Dryer after the breaker test (new only 6 months old) an appliance tech is coming out on thursday to look at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dakotart Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 Possible that the heating element is not shutting off properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennyFKINPowerz Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 Yeah, there is nothing wrong. Of course not. And they wanna raise our rates!!!!! Fuck thos motherfuckers. Just another money grubbing corporation trying to drain every penny they can from their customers. What ever happened to customer service? It used to be that you could call a company and as a customer you recieved a certain level of respect because they wanted you to be happy so you would come back and spend more money. Now a days you either have a bunch of retards working for 10.00 an hour that hate thier jobs and dont care how you feel as a customer. And a bunch of overpaid asshole executives sitting in a penthouse sized office setting policies that "sound like a good idea" but dont work for shit.

CRAWDAD Posted October 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 Possible that the heating element is not shutting off properly. The meter is only spinning like crazy when the dryer is on. The meter spins normal if it is off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clifford Automotive Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 I was thinking that maybe something is shorting out! If something is shorting out your meter wont turn. Had this happen at the shop. Melted a lug inside the meter, and the shop continued the circuit through the air compressor. Pretty neat to walk in a only have half the shop light up, then when i fired the compressor up the other half lit up. Edit: Sounds like you got it JJ.

CRAWDAD Posted October 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 Well the appliance guy came out and checked the Dryer. Everything checked out fine. So I called AEP back and told them that I had an electrician out and an appliance guy out and everything checked out fine! Oh now they are going to have a rep in the area contact me to do a few checks! Said it my take up to 3 days to get a hold of me! Waiting!!!!!!!
