BLOWOUT!
On April 9, this meter box exploded seconds after starting the pump. We train our men to stand to the side of panels and electrical boxes when starting and stopping for just this reason. The explosion startled the xxxx out of Javier but he was unhurt.
Note the hole that was blown through the panel next to the meter. The inside was completely incinerated. We could not determine the cause of the fire. Our vendor, Central Valley Pump, with cooperation from Turlock Irrigation District (our power company), got us pumping again in only 28 hours.
Wow, scary.
