So Siksukr.... will you be baking me a cake??
Reset ... like in turn off and then back on again ?

Well the first part is easy. First find the big black power line that runs out to the island. Then get some rubber gloves and an axe, preferably one with a fiberglass handle. Then shut of the power using same. One stroke if better than 2 or 3.

Turning the power back on is somewhat more complicated. First got to Lowes and ask Pepper for a bucket of wire nuts. Put on the rubber gloves (and boots if you got 'em) and wire nut the wires back together. Remember white to white, black to black, green to green, purple to chatreuse, etc, etc.

Voila, the power has been reset.
