Thanks Mike. This very thing happened a few months ago to a friend of mine. The CATV company went to hook up their line at his house and received a large jolt at their outdoor "D" mark termination. He then called me and said that the power was out in a good portion of his house. By the time I got there at the end of the day the POCO had just re-crimped their connections at the pole. I checked as many of the receptacles in his house as I could and found them to all be working properly. However, at that point in time any appliance that was on or had a digital display prior to POCO's arrival was burnt out due to the loss of the neutral.
