Comments on: Meters that Endanger: Shocking Details from a Whistleblower https://stopsmartmeters.org/2012/01/20/meters-that-endanger-shocking-details-from-a-whistleblower/ Fighting for health, privacy, and safety Thu, 29 Jan 2015 13:11:53 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.5 By: Terry Stephenson https://stopsmartmeters.org/2012/01/20/meters-that-endanger-shocking-details-from-a-whistleblower/#comment-1134607 Thu, 29 Jan 2015 13:11:53 +0000 https://stopsmartmeters.org/?p=3402#comment-1134607 Being an Electrician in Alabama, it caught my attention when they began installing the smart meters en mass on area homes. The company they contacted to do the work went from house to house installing the meters and I saw not one case of the installer being gentle. In several cases on older homes, the existing power meter had been installed for many years and had been seized into the socket. This led to many meter sockets being broken inside as the installers banged the new meters into place. Also the new meters are slightly thicker and were not designed to fit under existing meter covers which had to be forced around them. There has been a large uptick in meter socket replacement jobs due to the thicker sockets being installed and causing loose connections. While I can not say with certainty that they have caused house fires locally I can verify that they do provide the requisite temperature to do so.

The shielding can be made from aluminum screening(such as from a screen door) The magnets can be purchased from a cabinet supplier. Make the shield so it can be removed for meter servicing and replaced after servicing. In fact an aluminum turkey roasting pan will also work. The shielding will not stop “dirty electricity” produced by the so called “smart meter” You have every right to protect your health and your privacy. We are supposedly living in a democracy. We must fight to keep it! Never give up1 never, never,never, never.

You will stop over 95% of the radiation, and probably stop the accompanied radio communicstions.

That’s all. Imagine you take any wire that comes to your house from the electricity pole, and insert your own piece of wire into that wire. Basically, splice the original wire, insert, say, same piece of wire, and that’s it. That’s your electricity meter. Any meter works like that. So, any violation of specification such as plugging one million stoves or heaters into that circuit will cause any wire to melt. Meters have nothing to do with anything. Common sense has to do with EVERYTHING. Do not plug more utilities into your electric circuit than is allowed. Else, anything will burn: wires, meters, walls, etc. Good luck.

The man removed the box until it cooled and put it back on. This is the second time this has happened. The first time the guy said he couldn’t touch the meter because it was so hot. He got a coat out of his truck to remove it with and threw it on the ground. He spliced a wire that he said could be causing it. My 3 year old grandson lives with me so this is scaring me.

I need help with having the smart meter removed from my mother’s house. She has congestive heart failure already, and the meter is right below all of the bedrooms. Who do I need to contact in Alabama, that can back us up on this. She is sick, we are both depressed, and both very aggressive most of the time. Once again, Please Help!

Thanks for caring enough to ask about me, Paul 🙂 I’m still here… It’s just that your comments have had such a numbing effect on me (as well as other readers, I suppose) and so I don’t bother responding to your drivel. If anyone cares to follow up on your unsubstantiated claims, then I would refer them first to the comment string at the following link – https://stopsmartmeters.org/why-stop-smart-meters/ Ciao 🙂

The electrical properties of this pulse just happens to be the same size of an average adult human brain. My area was at 3:12 a.m. ………….Richard,,,,,,,Richard? Where art thou?

I have found many more that are experiencing the same thing and coincidentally that’s when my analyzer detects abnormal activity.
