Description

Called Pepco. Same Light Pole Also powers our homes. We have half power, but one phase seems to have sparked and caught fire near transformer affecting half our Power Outlets and the Street Light. Funny thing is that everything was fine until PEPCO sent Repair truck last night. Repair man did something to repair wires for neighbors down the street and when he left, 30 minutes later, the Sparks started Flying, the Transformer made explosive sounds and half our power went out. We only have One Phase of Electricity, but we need both Phases for full power and A/C and the Street Light. Please Fix the Street Light and that will also Fix Power for our Homes because the Phase that Powers the Light also powers our homes. PEPCO is passing buck, don't you pass buck too! Fix the Electric Pole and the Electric Light and Tell PEPCO to stop making the situation worse. What they did Melted the Wires connected to the Second Phase Wiring of the Transformer next to the Street Light. This is therefore a request to fix the Street Light since the Street Light Guy came for the Alley Light, but refused to work on the Street Light without a work order. This is a request for the Work Order, so NO ONE in DC or PEPCO should have an Excuse to not fix this Light and Transformer. Please Stay on Top of PEPCO and we are STAYING on Top of your repairs as well. We need our Light and both our Phases of Power. This Pole is on the side of the Street across from our homes next to Luke C. Moore Public School in the Middle of the 3400 Block of 10th Street, NE. between Monroe and Lawrence.
