UPDATE: I woke up this morning with fresh ears to hear a transient humming slowly and peacefully pulsating up and down the circuits. I was already aware this building has janky wiring insofar as transient voltages. I learned about transient voltages several years ago with my off grid setup. I’ve met more than one “master electrician” who does not understand transient voltage and I’ve seen more than one location wired incorrectly most probably resulating from this ignorance during some stage of assembly, this location included. All else equal, you cannot have more than one neutral ground bond, and in spite of passing inspection this home has many of these.
When before this was expressed as light bulbs burning out, now with our common choke using only one ferrite magnet you can literally hear the transient voltage slowly expressing itself up and down the sum of circuits. When before all this extra energy was dumping into places like my body, now it is expressing as this transient resonance. Fascinating.
Anyways I’ve got some investigating to do. I’m glad to feel that when before the transient voltage was expressing itself in a rather unhealthy way, both for me and for my electronics, now that extra dirty electricity is expressing itself in the form of this transient hum. And again, fascinating.
An aside?
I probably need to improve our novel common choke design in order to perfect. I’ve found also some material about NASA (whom I don’t trust in the least but to their credit have developed many a novel things) floating their ground “up in space” seeing as how there is no ground to speak of, allegedly, up there. So floating ground may or may not also tie in while I’ve some interesting developments in lightning arresting, or should I say resonating, also ping-pinging around up there in the noodle. The bottom line is that surplus energy always needs a place to go, even if it’s only in circles as it were. I’ll update soon.
Placeholder, note to self: yesterday my dead phone turned itself back on. At the time the coil was set as open without the ferrite (but I was in a tizzy to get the news out so it may be the order of events that the ferrite was in fact installed), for posterity. Probably just a coincidence…….
For those who might also grok, I do see where this is going for some cool segways, Gerard Morin (look him up). Segways I’ve been titillating at for years but never had the time nor inclination to pick at until this adversity struck me and the need to help my fellow man as well came in. Weakness becomes strength, did you know that’s enumerated in King James? God bless the good fruit, and maybe even some of the bad fruit, thine will be done.
