911 and the local electrical company have been contacted. A storm came through, we lost power, it came back but fluctuates. We then noticed that the local transformer was on fire. I was alarmed at the sound and concept but my husband wasn’t that phased. How common is this and how much should I worry? We are not in a fire prone area.

Thanks. It’s been reassuring to hear these types of comments. They put it out overnight and now we’re waiting on them to fix the transformer. Sucks to lose the AC during a heat wave but glad that they were responsive.
