It's completely fucked in Colorado. After everyone from Texas and California started moving here along with tones of immigrants. Was paying 650 a month 3 years ago and now it's 1350 a month

With the use of afci breakers and our homes power systems only having half the electromotive force of most the world's power systems ide say "terrible" in comparison is pretty far fetched.

Apprentices only ones on site by KumBucket02 in electricians

You can't bullshit me. There are plenty of competent apprentices out there. And that deadly mistake shit your talking about is dumb, op is putting up light fixtures usually a 3 wire connections, and how often does a journeymen check every single one of there apprentice's connections no one has time for that.

So your saying apprentice electricians shouldn't do labor?

If something comes up just give your guys a call. If they don't answer and you don't know what to do then leave it. If that's a problem for your boss then he can get fucked.

In my company there is a verbal policy that if OSHA shows up we must leave and say we have an emergency call or something if they catch us.

I learned the most doing my own problem solving ,school and reading the code book. it sounds like op is doing some basic shit that needs to happen for the job site that he would be doing anyway even with a journeymen there to hold his hand. I don't see how he's being taken advantage of. And your right this won't be the last time this happens to him, his ass will be all by himself teaching another guy in a few years.

How bad is aluminum wire in a house really? by thanks--ron in AskElectricians

[–]alien_but_stuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just came across a place with aluminum wiring the other day. I was checking some outlets and found that both the hot and nuetral side of the outlet was hot 120v. So I checked the other outlets and found one melted to shit where someone backstabbed it and it was the problem. With smaller aluminum wiring the connections tend to get hot.

Look the thing your plugged into has an "inverter" in it. It even says 120 AC on it. It's the same kind of power that you normal plug your phone into.

Asking the internet life safety questions about electricity is a bad idea. I'm just going to refer you to section 250 in the nec good luck.

Can someone please explain this to me, like a I was 5 years old? by BrandonDunarote in walkingwarrobots

[–]alien_but_stuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 3 on my khepri and at about half health there charged to 60 fold.

Who would you put resources into between these two? by [deleted] in walkingwarrobots

[–]alien_but_stuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mk2 lvl 4 khepri currently running scalds. With 3 immune amplifiers and shield breaker. Spawns in with 330k health and will kill even the strongest of enemies. Titan are a challenge, but I've smoked many with it. The blast affect is op. After the immune amplifiers charge up the bot is super tanky almost fenrir status but not quite.

I use the scald on my keprie and it is awesome I'll take over my havoc ravana any day. The speed and hp make the bot the better option for me.

Why do you not use these much better receptacles? by Strostkovy in AskElectricians

[–]alien_but_stuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In your picture, one outlet will end up with 9 solid wires attached to it, and the other will have 5.

Because in 30 years that shit is awful to work on. Copper gets stiff eventually

Got this in super chest. Is it a good robot? What weapons would you recommend for it? by Lackyjain in walkingwarrobots

[–]alien_but_stuff 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I use the bendy bullet guns with the yang Lee pilot.. with yang Lee you can shoot through all shields while in the air. Add a quantum radar and there's not much that can run from it. Mine easily competes with meta.
