Cardinal Electric, this is Hank — what's going on?
Caller
Half my house lost power. Living room and kitchen are out, bedrooms are fine.
Hank
Okay — quick check first: have you tried resetting the breakers? Look in your panel for any switches that are halfway between on and off.
Caller
I checked, none of them tripped. They all look normal.
Hank
Got it — that's not a simple breaker, that's a panel issue or a feeder problem. We can get a licensed electrician out today, service call's $129. What's the address?
