i had a similar problem at a friends house turn on the lights in the kitchen & they looked liked like spot lights. called power company out they cleaned neutral atb pole , then all was fine so we thought.come home about 12 that night & notice security light not burning.go in the house turn on lights in kitchen ,look like spot lights again.call power company again.they check things at meterbase & get 240 too neutral. get in bucket truck & check at pot ^ find same thing,now mind ya this is 2 a.m. in the morning. they finally find that the neutral connection inside the pot is bad. replace pot with a new one cut it back on ,security light comes back on, voltage is back to normal. they also pay for his appliances that were burnt out due to the overvoltage.pot is sent too scrap yard!does these apartments have two seperate pots or pad mounts? if there 800 amps each i would guess there would be 2.
