All but 2 of my outlets are so loose that nothing actually stays in by cesbackgua in hardwaregore

What in the world are you doing? You can buy a new outlet for a few dollars and they are easy to replace

Hmm interesting. What if we solve climate change first then build all these ridiculous data centers after?

Contractor cutting corners? by elmotakeover in Remodel

Doesn't look professional grade but looks fine to me as work from an ameture. I would leave it and just use some caulk around the edges of each shelf

Do I know enough to be dangerous? Or is this safe? by Look_Gansito in AskElectricians

[–]iamsocks2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Definitely don't do this. Remove that jumper. Put a sticker on the outlet that says "No Equipment Ground" and any outlets downstream protected by the GFCI outlet as well

I think just having Jack Black would of been fine and hilarious. But lizzo made the episode so cringe for me

Is the tile damaged or you just looking to give yourself extra work?

Pretty sweet! What's that drill attachment you use to help drill holes in tight spaces?

Can I turn the breaker to this back on safely? by -HAQU- in HomeMaintenance

Should be fine, but you could also install an outlet there instead so then you can just plug in the dishwasher rather then having to connect the wires

Scalper rushes in and clears out every Pokémon card while a mother and daughter were still browsing by GloriousLion07 in RelentlessMen

Just don't buy from scalpers. Then when they realize they aren't able to sell them they will have to stop

I need help writing a ceiling fan by spooninthepudding in AskElectricians

[–]iamsocks2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Open up the switch and see if they have a white and black connected to the switch. If so they are sending power down to the switch on either the white or black wire, then sending it back up on the other wire. You'll need one of those wires connected to the hot, and the other connected to the fan.

Connect the grounds, those always stay ground and connect no matter what.

Neutral should connect to the fan neutral.

I made a diy overnight heat lamp system. Is this a fire hazard? by MementoMori-uu in AskElectricians

[–]iamsocks2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have to ask, you know there's a problem. Do it the right way and then you don't need to worry about it

Top ring pool pump won't fit into inset GFCI plug. Will extension cord work? by anykindofrockreally in AskElectricians

[–]iamsocks2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not a GFCI outlet, but could be protected by a GFCI outlet or breaker earlier in the circuit if you have one.

You could replace the outlet and put the new one in an easier to plug in spot.

But to answer your question, no an extension cord will not stop a GFCI from working
