Just moved a doublewide and now outlets are showing 110 volts but all ceiling fans on front side of house is showing 250volts,what is wrong??

Well, start by telling us what you did. Just saying you moved a doublewide does not give us much to go on.

You need an electrician... someone hooked something up wrong after you moved to the new location.

Just talked with people who set up doublewide and they said they were only 4 crossover wires und the house and they were all connected. On basck half of the house outlets and fans are fine but on the front of the house outlets and fans show 250v...

Are the fans running at 250 volts?

Sounds like two of the cross connects are tied between two hots rather than a hot and return. However that gives less than 250v. More like 220, 230 or 240 depending on exact figures at your entry point.

Yes, that's the only way to get 240. Don't plug anything in or run the fan!

Yes they will run but very fast and blowed out light bubs.

Yeah we cut the power off to the front part of the double wide, electrician worked foe several hours but could not find the problem,coming back in am.

They are 4 sets of plugs,3 of the sets have an N on the side of the plug,and 1 set of plugs has a Z on it?? I am assuming an N is plugged into an N and the Z to Z,Is that right??

If an onsite electrician can't figure it out while being there seeing what's what I'm not sure how we can from all the way over here.

I'd let him do his thing in the AM.

And he's going to need a voltmeter to see what each wire actually is... he's not much of an electrician if he doesn't have one. Nor should he make assumptions in the light of what you are seeing.

If someone couldn't figure this out within the first 15 minutes of seeing it I would tell them to go HOME! Someone has hooked a hot to a neutral. Make sure the bigger slot of the outlet ends up being the neutral when finished.

This condition is a serious fire hazard, whomever made the mistake is very lucky, as is the homeowner.

I have personally seen fires started in homes by miswired neutral and causing 240 volts to be delivered to 120 volt devices.

Someone needs to hire a qualified electrician to make any corrections, and check all 120 volt devices that may had been energized by 240 volts.


Someone is very lucky if no damage has been done, and the person responsible must be prosecuted as necessary.
