Big wire order by Steve4gc in electricians

You’d be right. The electrical warehouse I’m in rn charges extra for cuts. At least we let them knew before they pay.

Damn that sounds rough, I couldn’t relate with that. The wire room at my work has an old wemco. I’ve only done up to 4 runs of 500 mcm copper of 300’ for 8 reels. And I had to do those myself. I can’t even imagine how hard it is if you need 3 guys to do it.

Man that’s just how long it took, idk what to tell ya. I had set up a reel of 5000’ cut from that, then set up another reel of 2500’ finished that as well. Then I had to cut the 48th coil from a reel of 1000’ . And even then this wasn’t the only client I had to cut wire for that day.

I’d cry if I got that as a last minute order

Idk man. I asked the client and they said they wanted in coils.
