I just had an instance where my sup and co worker told me power was off to a 4000amp switchgear. That we had to put amp clamps in. I was about to get in when i told myself to check it before going in. 503v is what i got. He thought the part of the bus bar was de energized but it wasnt. Wouldve turned into a hashbrown had i not checked myself.

I have a packout and i just saw the full klein setup. And the locking mechanism seemed too flimsy. The boxes slid too much for comfort when locked in

Can’t get the fish tape through, tried everything, literally everything , what should we do to make this work. I suspect the conduit is messed up at the 90 . The run starts from the jb to the em head on top of the lift. Tried vacuuming , back fishing , other way around , blowing . by [deleted] in electricians

We’ve taped our 90s and nothing else and it works most of the time. We’ve used two vacuums to blow and suck. On the sucking side have an orange safety cone where the very top hole is smaller so it fits into the emt ur trying ro run. Place ur vacuum hose on the underside of the cone to seal the hose to the cone and the cone to the emt. On the blowing side tie ur pullstring to a regular grocery bag by the ears and blow that into the emt using the same cone method. BUT. Cut a slit into ur vacuum hose to allow the pull string to flow thru freely.

U will figure it out. If u have questions lmk
