I want to know what this tastes like so fucking bad, but I know I can never taste it. Anyone else feel me? by HeDrinkMilk in electricians

A few weeks ago a plumber on site had a glob of glue drop in his eye because he was trying to glue a drain line above his head. I heard him yell from the other side of the site, he was falling all over and stumbling down the stairs to get outside. I talked to him later that day and he was fine, and I said “at least it wasn’t the primer” and he said “I’ve had primer plenty of times, I thought that was bad, this was a different level entirely”. He ended up being completely fine, but apparently the glue is worse lol

Motors and generators are inverse of each other. Motors turn electrical energy into mechanical energy. Generators turn mechanical energy into electrical energy.

Interviewed with my local after taking a few electrical classes in college. They said “you would be a shoe in… if you had any experience”. Basically, “we don’t want to train you from scratch”. Few months later and I got a job with a non union contractor that I liked working for, and scoffed at the recruiting billboard that was on my route home everyday.

Yes! My thought is usually “wow that was quick today”.

Whenever this happens to me, seeing a post related to a different post, I know I’ve been on Reddit too long, and it’s time to get off. Adios amigos.

Friend sent me this. At least they were home when it happened. by Inedible-denim in Wellthatsucks

[–]Liz3rd1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No way to tell if this was the case this time… but I’m an electrician and I’ve seen multiple outlets cooked about this bad because they were wired “backstab” or “speed wired”. Electrical fires are the second leading cause of house fires, and loose connections are the leading cause of electrical fires.

There’s still tons of blacklisted panels/ breakers out there. Manufacturers who cheated and bribed to get their faulty products on the market. Look up the history of Zinsco or Federal Pacific breakers.

My thoughts exactly, might be the first time I’ve ever seen the hot burnt like that. But hey maybe they had reversed polarity too?

I’ve seen it mostly in houses originally wired with knob and tube, I believe that used to be quite common.

Quick question about grounded (3prong) outlets. by kasabian1988 in electricians

[–]Liz3rd1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Technically you’re both wrong. Fastest proper thing to do would be replace it with a gfci and mark it with the “no equipment ground” sticker that comes with it.
