The shower fusebox controls the 2 back bedrooms and one wall [the side that was torn out]. Which I always found odd, as they are on total opposite sides of house.That's about all I know off hand. I assume the other box covers everything else, but couldn't tell you which controls which or if at all.
From my understanding Hornetd, that was kind of along the lines of what was going to be done. I don't understand electrical stuff much, it took me awhile to understand you can't simply 'just get rid of the shower box and tie everything down to the basement one." Though I was told you could at least make it so it all could be controlled from the bottom one, if I was understanding right. The shower box was going to be put it a weather box regardless of being flipped or not, because well...it's in the shower.
Now I have no clue how things will be done, other than I plan to print off some replies here and talk in more detail if that point ever comes and I can replace it. I hate it's in the shower, especially in it's present condition. It's very loose, and poorly connected as it is. I am really disappointed in myself for not just sticking to who I had choose out in the first place to do the job, I let the contractor give me a lot of hope and in same breath take it away.
I have a fire hydrant directly on my property, no wells and water should work from home with no power.
