my power went off yesterday afternoon around five thirty pm.so no problem just like every time i open up the breaker box going to shut off the main breaker then turn on the breaker for the generator i had the box replaced about five years ago all set up real nice to make it easy to switch over to the gen.well soon as i flipped off the main breaker i saw the appearence of water so i pulled the front cover off the box and the whole inside was water soaked .water was between every breaker down one side only there was even about a sixteenth of a inch of water laying in the bottom of the electric box itself i couldnt believe what i was seeing my elctrician who installed it just lives over the hill about five miles away .he came right over immediatly.with all the high winds and rain yesterday the rain traveled or blew in along the main wire coming through the house to the box where there was a small gap where some of the morter had cracked looks like it probably froze sometime and caused a crack.the buss bar was still dry but barely i think im lucky i still have a home
