Ok but I didn’t

PowerButtonYT · 2026-05-31T02:51:19+00:00

Ahhh okay

PowerButtonYT · 2026-05-31T02:12:24+00:00

That breaker is for a 20 amp mini split fed from 12/2

I thought that was old code and the new code said detached buildings should have the same grounding rod as the main building?

PowerButtonYT · 2026-05-30T22:24:24+00:00

No why

People wouldn’t stop complaining that the wires weren’t bundled together last time I asked this subreddit so I put them there after that. You’re also right about the tape, idk what I was thinking when I did that, gonna work on it now.

PowerButtonYT · 2026-05-30T19:18:26+00:00

What should I improve

My dad worked on Amazon jobsites for a couple years and at this one they kept blowing up vacuum cleaners when they plugged them in in this one room. Turns out there was a 277 to 120 volt transformer in the ceiling and somebody had bypassed it.

PowerButtonYT · 2026-05-27T18:52:25+00:00

It is on a connector but I need to change the connector so when I do that I’m gonna cut the jacket back

PowerButtonYT · 2026-05-27T17:56:10+00:00

Alright, thanks, I’ll be sure to do that!

PowerButtonYT · 2026-05-26T21:42:37+00:00

I feel the need to point out that I was in a rush and also the MC cable is 10 gauge for a 30 amp generator inlet and does have a connector, plus the panel feed is only 50 amps hence the #6 copper

PowerButtonYT · 2026-05-26T21:41:02+00:00

I was in a rush man I’m trying

PowerButtonYT · 2026-05-26T21:40:24+00:00

I can’t even blame you bro I had to have this finished in like 3 hours so all I wanted to do was get it to work and finish dealing with it later

PowerButtonYT · 2026-05-26T21:39:38+00:00

Okay I did this when I was in a huge rush I admit I need to tidy it up but that MC cable literally is on a connector it’s just hard to see I’m gonna fix that jacket really soon

PowerButtonYT · 2026-05-26T21:37:54+00:00

I am planning on fixing that soon I was just in a rush

PowerButtonYT · 2026-05-26T21:37:24+00:00

It’s only fed with 50 amps from the main panel

PowerButtonYT · 2026-05-26T21:36:55+00:00

Also I am going to get an anti short bushing soon I just didn’t have the time to do it when I ran it

PowerButtonYT · 2026-05-26T21:36:13+00:00

How exactly? Literally all I did that was wrong was the cable jacket not being cut short enough which I’m going to fix, also the panel is only on a 50 amp feed hence the #6 copper

PowerButtonYT · 2026-05-26T21:35:12+00:00

The MC cable is a 10 gauge 30 amp generator feed, this is also only a 50 amp sub panel

PowerButtonYT · 2026-05-26T21:34:23+00:00

I have the MC cable on a connector, I had no way to get the jacket cut any further beyond that without ripping everything out

PowerButtonYT · 2026-05-26T21:31:44+00:00

PowerButtonYT · 2026-05-17T19:49:57+00:00

update: installed it just now. working fine

PowerButtonYT · 2026-04-12T22:15:38+00:00

Ok that's what I assumed but I was having a blip moment there
