I haven't seen any warnings about electrocution in water soaked Texas homes.

2. Imagine an electric cord with 2 male ends...

instead of one male end one female end.

Some dumbasses plug one end into the "power out" outlet of their portable generator...then plug the other end into an outlet in their house.

Now, there is power (although very limited amperage) in the house...enough for fridge, a light or two. But they are also putting power into the electric line between the pole and the house...threatening injury to any unlucky electric company worker. Unless they are smart enough to pull the disconnect at their meter. And they aren't that smart, or they wouldn't be doing this.

And they have also bypassed the breakers in their breaker panel.

Just a good way to get people hurt or killed.
