Kurt although the things you say may, sometimes be a fact, just because you
hear it does not mean that it's an arc. Statistically 85 times out of a
hundred that I investigate a noise for most utilities the problems are not
found to be arcing sources but do sound a lot like arcs. So the statement that
if you hear it, it's a narc it's absolutely incorrect and you should never
assume that just because you hear something it's an arc. Don't assume anything
until you find the source.
It is a fact that more times than not the company being accused of the cause is
not in fact the cause.
However, the more people accuse them of having power line noise the more they
hire me to find what isn't!
Thank you.
Got done did a great job of going out and locating the calls without assuming
would it maybe and voicing a false opinion just to find he's wrong later.
Everything he put in the article was on the money.
Thanks again to done for a good article short sweet to the point and accurate
