Sounds like you blew a terminal on your compressor. Which means it will need to be replaced.

The tech that came out said that the terminals were blown out and that it was probably caused by a strong surge. He compared it to a lightning strike. Needless to say the unit is toast and I'm filing a claim with Entergy.
Same exact thing (surge) happened to me years ago, although the surge occurred for reasons unknown to me. I had to replace the unit. Friends suggested that I file a claim with Entergy and that they would take care of it, but I didn't do that. I wish I had now, but I was young and skeptical they would cover the loss at the time.

Entergy burnt my house down and they got off scott free! I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you.
Just an fyi, two houses caught fire at the exact same time. It was known that a bad transformer feed our subdivision... for years.

My guess is he is talking about loosing a leg of the 220. I agree with you though it’s already single phase. I doubt very seriously he has a three phase unit
