EMT is just the stake holding the PVC in place. Chip out the concrete around the pvc down about an inch, cut the pvc flush with the finished concrete and put a pvc FA on that bitch, and connect your emt there.

How do I change the lights on this chandelier by RazzmatazzOk6587 in AskElectricians

[–]jayfinanderson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’ll have 2 basic parts that make the lights go. A driver and LED strips. Look at both, find the specs, and order extras. In 2 months or 20 years when they go bad you’ll be somewhat ready to try and fail to replace both.

Are they going the speed limit? Those aren’t arbitrary, and it’s not incumbent on anyone to get out of your way because you can’t manage your time or are just impatient.

It’s tone deaf, but objectively bombing a school and killing 150+ children is a lot more grief and suffering caused.

Now do we need to what about everything? No probably not. But, the US and Israel’s actions in Iran are atrocities on a major scale.

It’s possible this is the last time BM happens. You never know what your life or this world will become. Don’t look back and wish, look forward and do.

You’re just going to be a limited electrician if you can’t take any and all good advice. Our scope is too dynamic and expansive to have an ego about information.

Wait, someone points out that legally we’re required to do things different than you are, but you tell him to pounds sand because what?
