If you were to try this and somehow cause damage to the sub station, would you be held liable?
Actually, this brings an interesting question with IoT - if devices damage or otherwise exploit your utility company’s equipment, is it their fault of yours? Presumably doing anything bad is against your utility’s ToS, but if you didn’t do it knowingly...
- mbreese 7y agoI would imagine that unless you were a licensed electrician, you would be liable.
- KMnO4 7y agoI’m sure you’d still be liable if you were a licensed electrician.
- unnouinceput 7y agoThose are commands for your PW, not for sub-station. Like I said, I tried them, and nothing happened. The author is an alarmist and the only valid point he had in the entire article was default password instead of assigning unique one, which is easily to re-configure. Also the last one I suspect might damage your PW ugly enough if you're in US, but I am in EU where I already have 240V, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
