Yesterday, 2am, our house had a few moments of celebration. Well, it didn’t involve people... It was a group of non-living things - Ac, fridge, lights, washing machine - all of them started blinking and making noises.
Electricity box and gadgets going haywire. Kitchen lights working as master switches - controlling power in other rooms, etc. ‘‘twas quite an experience.
Today morning we were able to find an electrician who showed up in under an hour to check the power supply and he reported that the house was running at double the power of 440 volts hence the power fluctuations. He was able to do a quick fix and bring everything back to normal. The TV, fridge, Washing machine, AC all started working again! We had started to plan how to empty the fridge, managing our work without wi-fi. Thank God! We didn’t need to do any of those things.
This was quite a miracle for us. We remember a similar incident a few years ago in Chennai where we lost a string of electrical appliances due to power fluctuations. So much so our fridge couldn’t get fixed for three months due to lack of parts and I had to rent a fridge during that time. Lol!
Us getting everything fixed without needing a spare part, the availability of the electrician, are all providences from God especially during this lockdown. And we don’t take this for granted.
Another story of being led. One day at a time.
