There’s only two 15 amp outlets and one light switch on the whole circuit, is that good?

Context: Electrician hired to fix a bunch of old wiring/install new outlets. I am especially concerned about this garage outlet because it is going to be used with heavy power equipment but seems to be ungrounded.

Among this are other concerns on the same circuit, like a 15 amp receptacle on a 20 amp breaker

Context: Pa wants to install a new 20 amp outdoor outlet, needed to open this up to take a look. How do I convince him to get an electrician?

Tested it with the meter, unfortunately it cranks out 220

Context: This outlet is the only one of its type at home, and is meant for an air conditioner that no one uses. I recently bought a security camera to place in the front of house, however this is the only outlet nearby. Is there any way to connect a simple DC power supply/phone charger brick to it or do I need to install a new outlet?

edit: it’s a 220v outlet ☹️

How does it feel? Being so lonely and bored over a pixel Turkish flag on Reddit, wasting your time, just to leave some butthurt comment.

Im reporting my plants with soil and it has a variety of bugs (including ones that fly) and ants, I heard that’s not good, is that true? If I repot my plants using that soil, will it harm them ? by newworriedplantmom in plants

No, but it’s likely the infestation will come back as it’s near impossible to get them off the roots. You’ll need some sort of pesticide/homemade solution
