I have a 3 receiver setup. One receiver is a TIVO with two cables running to it. I have two other regular receivers. I came home one day after having DirecTV for over a year and discovered that 1 of my receivers would not power on. Turns out the breaker was tripped. I un-trip the breaker and go to the receiver. It's humming and then trips the breaker again. So, I think the receiver is bad. I take it to where my other single receiver is and test it there. I get a big shock out of the coaxial as I'm plugging in the bad receiver. So, I decide that the receiver is bad and go to reconnect the single receiver that was at that tv. Now, that receiver can't find the satellite signal. I call DirecTV out. They try to replace the receivers and blow one after the other (and damage the LNB) in both single receiver rooms. Also get a big shock at the splitter. All the while, the TIVO receiver works fine. The two single receivers are on the same circuit breaker. So, I call an electrician. He comes out and tests everything. He says there is nothing wrong with the way my outlets are wired, etc. He notices that the DirecTV system is not grounded. So, he and I hooked up a ground to the splitter running to a cold water pipe. Is this all that needs to be done? I don't want to call DirecTV and have them come out and blow more receivers. The electrician could not detect or think of any other potential problems. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
