Yeah. The buildings in my area are pretty old. The power line and related infrastructures are built when people use electricity in a wild way. I don't know how to translate the name into English, but the idea is the power is delivered by a single live wire, you connect it to the device, then connect the other end to ground. The infrastructure built at the time is pretty rough.
In the my house, all wall plugs are single zoned, one phase, no GFCI or something equivalent. If one point get shorted, the whole breaker pop off. If any house on the street don't have the breaker, the main breaker will pop. And at this time, we have to call the organisation who take in charge and let them fix the problems, which usually takes half of a day. This time, the main breaker poped again.
But I don't why it pops every time there is a heavy rain, despit the infrastructure is really old and not well designed.
