I am at my wits end.
We have lived in this house for 5 years and just started to feel a mild tingle or shock when we touch the coping or concrete of the pool. My 5 year old was the first to mention it however myself and my husband feel it as well. We have had Duke Energy engineers out and they say that the voltage is so low (.5 - 1.1) that we shouldn't be able to feel it. They were not much help and suggested we look for a break in the bonding. Yesterday we had a pool electrician out and he dug up a corner of the concrete and rebonded a small section. The volts dropped to .01. My husband jumped In today and still feels the tingle. Does anybody have any clue how we can feel a tingle when the voltage is so low. Has anybody had a similar experience and found a fix?
I hate to think we will not be able to swim for the rest of the summer but am worried nobody will find a solution.
