I have and electrician coming next week who says he will check things out and 
first of all ground the breaker panel to two ground rods 7 feet apart.  I 
thought the grounding was  put at the meter but he says they don't do that 
anymore.  I think the old meter, before we had the new one put in had a ground 
rod beneath it but nothing now.  The only ground I could find to the panel is a 
skimpy wire going to a water line.  All of which looks corroded etc..  I know 
many dollars were spent on renovation and restoration of this place but I'm 
afraid to much emphasis was placed on cosmetic and not enough on electrical as 
I look more closely, pretty depressing.  Well, at least it will be safer.  
Can't thank the forum members enough.Regards,jim/k2hn
