DEW attack in Canneto di Caronia?

[Waterglass]

I suppose some external and unusual phenomenon can't be ruled out. I'm just think all the basics need to be covered first, even though it sounds like you have been trying to do that, as even if you got a paranormal society or some other org to investigate and actually get them to come out, they'll just be asking the same questions. Half tongue-in-cheek I am tempted ask "have all the neighbors around your lake used the same electrictian?" Maybe its worth a second or third opinion.

Ground wired to neutral at 12 outlets is a no-no. If the electrician your hired was responsible for this, I would immediately fire them. Typically, you only see this on old houses that have had the receptacles replaced to three prong outlets without the appropriate wiring upgrades. House would have to have been built 1970s or earlier to find something like this. If house was built later than that its a huge red flag about the wiring in the home. Loose wires are also definitely a problem.

With a simple voltmeter you should be able to check for ground loops by measuring between neutral and ground. If the bonding is proper, there should be no voltage present. If there is voltage between neutral and ground then there is a wiring problem somewhere. Circuits need to be on when testing this.

A wifi blaster shouldn't prevent a phone from taking pictures or videos. However, an extremely strong local source of RF interference could cause a smartphone to malfunction. Even something as simple as a CB radio could interfere. It would probably be at least 5W or greater though. Not something one carries in their pocket.

Any RF signal can be blocked with an appropriate jammer so Verizon or AT&T are also vulnerable. A standard Wifi jammer centers on 2.4 Ghz, but probably spits out garbage all across the spectrum. Providers that use PCS frequencies or AWS band phones would be most likely to be affected by such a jammer. Verizon doesn't use those frequencies at all to the best of my knowledge. AT&T does use PCS and some AWS in select markets, particularly in areas that were originally "cingular wireless." The "grandaddy" original AT&T network is 850Mhz same as Verizon.

Thanks MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No, all homes didn't use the same electrician. 

I am now wondering about the boat radios as 50+ pleasure boats pass by here daily.

I will now replace all OEM receptacles as the home was built in 1994. I plugged in a charger into a garage receptacle yesterday and sparks came out from the hot prong slot. Not a few sparks but a couple of seconds worth of sparks. I may also replace the switches as I already replaced 25 in the home as this guy was "Mr. Dimmer". He had over 30 dimmers in the home so he was a Don Juan with the ladies? Those were the old $3 round cheapo ones. A hole also used them to control the ceiling fan fan. He is who I think wired the home as he considered himself a "Handyman"  Yea, right Handyman WRONG! I am surprised he hasn't had a fire here but this is all on me now and I am bringing all up to Code. The home used to be like the Munsters when the HVAC came on. Lights dimming and flickering. Had that fixed in 2020 with two Siemens Panels and all new Breakers and Eaton Whole Home Surge Protection in the Panels. 

I also know of two receptacles in the home that aren't grounded. I tried all but ???? The Master Electrician said that the entire wall sheet of drywall would have to be removed to determine as to WTF is going on. I will do that as I don't need him for that as do my own drywall and I can wire. I also have several testers and I don't buy junk. 

My families safety is #1. Same for my dock and any transient voltage. I ripped out all their dock wiring in 2019. It was compromised big time.

PS: A a point of reference this prior homeowner who had it custom built in 1994 was a graduate Electrical Engineer, Pennsylvania State University and a Safety Manager at a local Nuclear Plant.  IMO a regular in real life time Homer Simpson. Everything in the home was cobbled with garage sale junk. Lights, toilets and electrical supplies. 

Here's one of my "wins". The Master Bath was so filthy we NEVER used it until I remodeled. I designed and did the drawings along with 75% of the labor.  Its all Travertine and cultured marble. I landed it all for $36,000 as I was the Master Contractor under the County Building Permit. IMO its glam enough to do porn movies. Ha.

Exactly! Knowledge is always a step to get even more knowledge.


One thing about capturing strange phenomena on camera is that using more than one camera, if possible, will give us much more information, specially if the cameras have some kind of synchronised clock and are relatively far apart, as that, along with some trigonometry calculations can give distance/altitude/speed/etc.

I have three wired RING cams. Two are offline. I can bring back online. I also have two Trail Cams that aren't WIFI and satellite connected with Verizon. My wheels are spinning.
