What is the name of your state? California
Recently a squirrel got between two power lines and caused a power surge that damaged most all of our appliances. Southern California Edison has denied my claim on the basis of Tariff Rule 14 which states:
SCE will not be liable for interuption or shortage of supply, nor for any loss or damages occaisoned thereby, if such interruption or shortage results from any cause not within its control.
My insurance company won't help because they say the surge happened at the pole and not at the house. My only option is to take SCE to court. Do I have a case against them or should I just consider this an expensive lesson on the importance of surge protectors?
