Oh Dear...

It is an electrical mystery of epic proportions. It looks like whoever wired up the garages originally screwed it up right royal, to the point that the wrong units are powering the wrong garages. The electrician has gone to talk to the association's maintenance manager.

Yay repaired! So, does that mean that in doing so, the electrician unhooked someone else's garage from our power? Cascade effect?

As long as we only paid to fix our problem, I'm okay with that. If we're paying to fix other units' problems, I'm not okay with that. Or if the association built it wrong, then they should pay to correct it.

I'm glad you're going to follow up. Thanks for taking care of this.

The electrician's boss told him to charge me for how long my individual work took, and the electrical company will make the association pay for the "investigative work caused by multi-unit miswiring."

Yeah, someone else's garage is unhooked from our power. It is going to cause a cascade of outages as they fix each one individually.

There is still follow up investigation to do on my part.

Hooray for the electrician company being good guys.

Should we notify the other units of what's going on, if you haven't already? Especially since somebody has now lost power?

The association maintenance man did the notifications.
