I checked everything and it didn’t make sense…. Every time I switch the boxes on, they go off again. The thing that puzzled me even more was that the AC remained on throughout.

To cut a long story short, when we finally convinced the Ministry technician to come out, he confirmed that the earthing of the house has a current! This is not good.

The reason: They broke into the substation and stole a cable. The technician was not at all surprised saying it happens all the time! He smiled and said “Ali Baba had been there”. He showed me what they had done starting with the breaking of the padlock outside.

As a rule, I don’t wish bad things on people – but I make an exception here. It would be so wonderful if they get electrocuted next time they attempt this! I pray this happens soon.
