just got electricity turned on my home notice a wire from elec.box to cable conn.reading "gnd wire if breaks call cable co."Looked at moms house no wire but when using the appliances the cable tv gets static-e
Grounding sensitive equipment is critical these days. With all the voltage surges and brown outs, we need to protect our hi-tech stuff. Cable TV and the telephone company use a hard wire ground to protect their equipment as well as yours. In a house the ground is usually run to the electrical panel. The electrical panel should be grounded either to a grounding rod driven into the earth near the house or connected to the water main entering the house.
In your mom's house, the static you may be getting may be due to no ground. Also, the appliance she is using while you watch cable may share the same electrical phase in the panel.
Have your mom's electrical panel checked for grounding. Call the cable guy and instruct him to install an equipment ground.
Maybe it was a Friday and he was in a hurry to get home.
