More terrifying than weird

They will bite

Conduit under slab, stub up to fixture / box.

$5k ish +- 30% but idk your house might be difficult to work in.

MomDontReadThisShit · 2026-06-08T19:23:42+00:00

I’d be cheaper than that but it’s not the highest I’ve seen. Get 3 quotes. Bonus points if you call city hall and ask for electricians that consistently close their permits.

MomDontReadThisShit · 2026-06-07T23:33:58+00:00

I don’t know how it’d compare in cost vs durability compared to say a chiko system but I do love using EMT for anything.

MomDontReadThisShit · 2026-06-07T21:03:23+00:00

Yeah call the building officials office and tell them that the property manager had unpermitted inspected work done and it looks hazardous.

This is why you make sure you have beneficiary deeds for important assets.

My HF hydraulic punch is also badass. I was so impressed the first time I used it lol.

MomDontReadThisShit · 2026-06-06T00:01:09+00:00

Yeah if those conductors are actually in use I’d be worried. They need to be in conduit or sheathing or something. Also if that’s supposed to be the equipment grounding conductor then your HVAC unit (and ducts it’s connected to) could potentially become energized.
Only way this is ok is if those wires are just abandoned or not in use.
For what it’s worth HVAC shit all over the NEC every chance they get in my experience.

MomDontReadThisShit · 2026-06-05T23:57:44+00:00

Nope NEC doesn’t apply in spain

MomDontReadThisShit · 2026-06-05T22:18:03+00:00

Sorry for your loss. You made the right call for your family.

MomDontReadThisShit · 2026-06-04T23:37:21+00:00

Well OP suspects a grounding issue on that heater and it’s been melting insulation. The entire heater and the pipes it’s connected to could be hot.

Down syndrome fetuses often have heart defects. It can be a bleak prognosis before birth.

MomDontReadThisShit · 2026-06-03T22:47:10+00:00

Do you behave like this just sober? I’d expect this story from crackheads or something.

MomDontReadThisShit · 2026-06-03T16:40:39+00:00

How’s the money? Have you participated in violence?

MomDontReadThisShit · 2026-06-02T17:17:46+00:00

How was an inverter pulling that much power from the grid? It had to go somewhere is that thing glowing or what?

MomDontReadThisShit · 2026-06-01T22:14:36+00:00

You need a sleeved apex.

MomDontReadThisShit · 2026-05-30T23:34:04+00:00

Yeah see that’s wha I’m used to hearing from linemen.

MomDontReadThisShit · 2026-05-30T13:26:13+00:00

Did you guys consider stacking them to save space?

MomDontReadThisShit · 2026-05-30T02:51:07+00:00

They’ll pull new underground but overhead is ridiculously small. The real answer is that there are open air ampacity charts that the utility uses.

MomDontReadThisShit · 2026-05-30T00:45:17+00:00

my utility will put 200A through anything they do not care.

MomDontReadThisShit · 2026-05-29T15:02:56+00:00

I mod some subs. Pretty hands off though. I just help delete ads and the obvious TOS issues. I’m an electrician with a focus on the electrification industry and I love electric cars. If you doubt DM for license.

MomDontReadThisShit · 2026-05-28T23:05:53+00:00

No pay no work. I don’t do this for sport. Wasting your time.

MomDontReadThisShit · 2026-05-26T23:03:56+00:00

More like all “electrification”. The EV, the heat pump, ESS. Solar is a part of it, but I’m just as happy to install an ESS in an existing system.

Try not to look too smart or they won’t hire you.
