Somebody stole 3 meter sockets off this meter bank I guess they really needed them..lol Oh well at least they didn’t steal the wire, I did have to wait 3 weeks to get the parts from the factory that sucked. But I got to work it live so that made up for the waiting time, I love working on things with live power it makes me feel alive and I get to wear my gloves and safety gear. The first picture shows the missing parts and the second pic is with the new sockets installed.
Ok man I may just be ignorant, but do you know why they would steal them? Can they get good money for them?

They might get 2 pennies scrapping them there made out of steel. I think someone else’s meter sockets burned up and they saw that theirs no meter here and they took them to fix their meter. This is a gated community and its crazy that people think that know one would steal anything, but I see just as much wire and ac units stolen as I do else where. They pay HOA fees every month and for what most of the time its the neighbors stealing the stuff. The only protection you need is a shotgun..lol
Ok, I just assumed they were trying to sell them. I didn’t think they would be worth anything, but you really never know about people anymore.
