Hi singingfalls,
Thanks so much for coming back to share how you resolved your reboot issue. This is definitely something to keep in mind for any similar cases, we appreciate you sharing what happened! If you need anything else, please don't hesitate to drop by the community again.
Thanks for the update! So many times around here, people just fade away, and you never really find out what happened.
"Please keep in mind that main breaker box terminals are very hot. I was advised by the power company not to change out the main breaker without calling the power company so they can shut down the power to avoid electrocution and or any unnecessary light shows."
Some of us here suspected that you had some sort of electrical problem. Heat is not a good sign! Back when I was an industrial electrician, we had a company come in twice a year and take infrared photos of all of our electical equipment, looking for hot spots. Saved the company a ton of money to fix the hot spots on down day, rather than suffer an unplanned outage later.
If the terminals in your panel continue to "run hot" after tighening the connections, you may still have electrical problems.
Thanks gaines_wright,
I only meant that it was hot with regard to the fact if you didn't know what you were doing it would light you up like a light bulb. The box itself wasn't actually pumping out BTUs.
All the best!
