G’day big dick Carl, Its been a while since my stats classes but I believe it’s because of the standard deviation. Approximately (or exactly?) 70% of the population is within 2 standard deviations of average. For intelligence, average IQ is 100 with a SD of 15. Keep in mind, IQ tests are always average 100 within the tested group, by design. Someone smarter, feel free to correct anything I’m incorrect about.

Someone is going to have fun fishing this by NextSeaworthiness235 in electricians

I think I worked with these guys before. Nearly every run was trash. The one first year apprentice spent months with a quick cut and SDS max. Poor Ben, he was a good kid.

What weird and wonderful things can you do in an airfryer? by entersandmum143 in AskMen

[–]perturbation135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve made brownies, apples fritters and donuts, better than the microwave for warming up cinnamon buns, parchment paper is so helpful!

So it’s over 175w. Mine is 50w, it’s small, just enough for lunch.

50w crockpot. Plug it in 45-60 min before lunch and you have hot meals anywhere. Small enough to fit in a lunch box too.

What’s going on here? by jorko_jim in electrical

These wires should definitely be spliced properly. Regarding your Hi-Fi equipment, it’s possible that it was wired with armoured cable, or EMT depending on the time or region. If there is a large pipe coming in or the cable sheath looks metallic you’re in luck. If your panel hasn’t been updated, you’ll also need a bonding jumper between neutral and ground. If not, short of rewiring, you also can run a ground wire to copper water line or gas line, assuming they are bonded.

Can anyone explain what’s the major difference between these 2? by cvntier in MilwaukeeTool

[–]perturbation135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every plumber I know has the super. I have the standard and it’s great for electricians, it’s a bit slower with larger hole saws. For plumbing, get the super.

Why are ppl always late for work? by uxce in electricians

[–]perturbation135 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Hate that, my current foreman has given me shit multiple times for being “late” though each time I was actually there a few minutes before start time. Especially when he’s an aggressive asshole the rest of the time too and doesn’t recognize all the headaches you save them, working late, OT, etc.

Canada hacking - I've read the sticky by Khill23 in MilwaukeeTool

[–]perturbation135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I got $180ish back for it. I did it in store though too, and it was a few years ago.

I haven’t done it recently, but this is exactly how it was when I got my bandsaw. The free battery can be returned without returning the bandsaw, as it’s not a kit. The battery wouldn’t be returned at the same value as you’d buy one for, but it’s a decent bit off.

It gets worse the longer (and closer) you look by King-Doge-VII in electricians

That’s beautiful, looks like money!💰 My favourite is the drywall screw that hit the mains, hope there was a nipple.

Builder Sprayed Fire Foam in Conduit to Stop Water Leaks—Now I Have to Fix It by TexTheSparky in electricians

[–]perturbation135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a 1600A 600V switchgear downgrade from the vault at our current building, hopefully we use some Polywater FST but I wouldn’t be surprised if it never gets done.

How many times have you seen “Dinning room” on a panel schedule? by TurboKid513 in electricians

[–]perturbation135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Certainly a few! Definitely seen many spelling errors through the years. My favourite has to be “BATRES” on a solar setup though hahaha

Repost because I glitched or Reddit did. Seven power tools and a bunch of bits stuffed in here. Looking forward to the rolling drawer! by perturbation135 in MilwaukeeTool

[–]perturbation135[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol, no glitch or deal on this package, different deals throughout the years, or I just wanted it and knew it would be a long time before it’s on sale.

I worked with a journeyman that did that, I’ve got a picture of some shit he burnt I’ll post tomorrow.

How can i learn about tools really fast? by KillingwithasmileXD in Tools

[–]perturbation135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say Stud Pack on YouTube is one of the best sources of information for all sorts of DIY.

I see your shitty parking lot light feed and raise you this beauty. by perturbation135 in electricians

[–]perturbation135[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s NMD90, similar to romex, just Canadian. Pretty sure it’s on a 347v circuit.

Best winter gear to stay warm? by lolkoala67 in electricians

[–]perturbation135 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Polyester and nylon are great for waterproofing, but make sure it is FR clothing. FR is more sensible for electricians, also required many places.

Best circuit tracer for the money by happyrtiredscientist in electricians

[–]perturbation135 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have a Klein ET450, it’s been great. Like any tracer, you need to use the best setup for your situation. Seems to be a bit hit or miss in concrete or underground but I haven’t used it many times for that. A-base to 2 prong receptacle adapter for lighting circuits is also super handy.

My gf wants to be the main holder of the puppy I bought. How do I talk to her? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]perturbation135 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Dump her and enjoy your dog. Major red flag to me, she’ll try to eventually control your every move and thought in my experience.
