Now if you grab the phase (hot) lead it will shock you and I am no physics expert so I cant explain why but AC voltage has to have both leads in order for it to work at full voltage. My guess is the wire had enough tension when shoved into the connector to supply power in the beginning but after driving on rough South Carolina roads it lost its connection due to not being tightened up during assembly.

Your/our South Carolina roads are going to improve now that the gas tax was raised to fix em. Off subject, sorry.
