Check to see if there is any corrosion in there. A new service head isn’t that expensive. If you need to replace the service entrance cable, that is going to be a little more. I would guesstimate 2-300 for a electrician to replace the head, and about double that if he has to replace the entrance cable. That’s if its a simple easy to get to and not too long of a service entrance. The power company ties into the service drop, so it would have to be coordinated with them. > Is your service cable in conduit, or is it just SEU strapped to the house? It is only a ranch house, the it is pretty short and the entrance is not that high off the ground and the entrance cable is pretty short, so hopefully it would be easy for the electrician to get at. I am not really sure what the answer is to your last question though (conduit vs. SEU). --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/home-electrical-question/201522)._
