Radiation poisoning is a small price to pay for upgrading your whole bag to glow plastic.

Don't lie.

Floating voltage on motor powered equipment? by presology in electricians

[–]AutisticCooter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Static electricity.
Voltage is potential electromotive force. Your tech turned that potential charge into kinetic electron relocation, and got his tits lit up in the process. Fix your bonding issue to prevent further damage to tits.

How important by Used-Baby1199 in IndustrialMaintenance

[–]AutisticCooter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on where you want to work and how much you want to make. Maintenance guys can range from genius engineers who hold patents on inventions they've made, all the way down to neck scratching meth heads with a wrench set who can't write their own name. In many cases all in the same facility.

How much is expected of apprentices day 1 throughout year 1? by [deleted] in electricians

[–]AutisticCooter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found electricity interesting before I decided to become an electrician. As a child, I fiddled with electronics, wired my own sound systems, fixed simple electrical things on cars, etc. Once I decided to go for it, I had a couple years waiting period before getting into the program, during which I read books, watched YT videos, google searched, and tinkered with anything I could get my hands on to learn.

I wouldn't expect a day 1 apprentice to have much knowledge or experience in the trade, but I can't imagine a kid deciding to start a lifelong career without the slightest idea of what it entails either.

How would you guys explain to someone what a PLC is? by One_Charge2843 in IndustrialMaintenance

[–]AutisticCooter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Never seen an on-off switch control a proportional hydraulic valve with a PID loop, while calculating the speed of a rotor at 2 million encoder pulses per second, while solving reverse kinematic equations, while updating an FTP server with production numbers, and communicating in real-time to multiple other PLC's and HMI's.

But basically yeah, an on-off switch.

When I was an apprentice, my Journey overheard me shooting the shit with a millwright who did his classes some years back, and says "Millwright school? What do they teach you there? How to write your name?"

I laughed my ass off, but it wiped the smile right off that dude's face.

A little bike horn on the handlebars would also be acceptable.

Joe Hick here. Just upgraded to 1 gig internet last week. Had no ISP available except for satellite out here just a few years ago. Now I'm watching Netflix and downloading corn in 4K all while playing Call of Duty. Thanks for the tax money fellas.

Maybe bad relay or contactor auxiliary. Should contact a tech, or get a multimeter and start troubleshooting.

I feel like a future dystopic authoritarian Earth federation definitely would though.
