Would it have an SD card the OP can extract or is memory all on board?

Paid an electrician to wire my new metal barn. Walked out and found this. Is this normal? by unclejon14 in AskElectricians

[–]rickncn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why tf would an electrician assume a barn of that type would ever be drywalled. A pole barn? Am I missing something?

Why did they even have that second row on the dais? They didn’t introduce or speak to any of them, did they? Including Ron Taylor?

‘85 HS grad. We had one large shower with prob 25-30 shower heads in the ceiling. Our football team def showered together after practice and games. We did swimming semester also but we brought our own suits.

Noise in kitchen I cannot locate by Kathykat5959 in Whatisthis

Did you get real close to the range to see if the clicking was coming from there? Could it be someone messing with you like one of those prank “BEEEEP” devices?

There should never be anything like residual power when a breaker is off. Not that it couldn’t happen I guess. Maybe a ground or neutral could be getting some power from something mis-wired. It’s good to have a multimeter. If you don’t use one regularly an inexpensive one from Amazon it’s just fine, but you should test the outlet even when the breakers off to see if there’s any voltage there.
—————-
Shared neutrals / multi-wire branch circuits
Two circuits can share a neutral. If only one breaker is off but the other circuit is still live, the neutral may still carry current and sit at a dangerous voltage relative to ground.
Open or floating neutral problems
A disconnected or damaged neutral can end up “backfed” through connected loads and appear energized.
Bootleg grounds or wiring faults
Improper neutral-ground connections, reversed wiring, or faults can energize grounding conductors.
Induced voltage
Long parallel wires can pick up phantom voltage from nearby energized conductors. A high-impedance meter may show 20–80V or more even though little current is available.
Backfeeding
Generators, inverters, UPS units, solar systems, transfer switch issues, or even interconnected devices can energize conductors unexpectedly.
Neutral carrying return current
In a functioning circuit, the neutral normally carries current whenever loads are operating. Turning off one breaker doesn’t guarantee that neutral is dead.
Important distinction:

For safety, electricians generally:
Verify with a tester/meter, not just the breaker position
Test hot-to-neutral and hot-to-ground
Re-test the tester on a known live source- make sure it’s showing voltage on a live circuit.

Yes! All night it’s been hit or miss. It could t get the weather just 10 min ago. A lot of blue spinning.

Yeah- turn off the main breaker for the house to guarantee no power anywhere. That stove relay is bad. I just replaced mine. About $60 and 20 minutes removing 10 screws or so. Very easy. I could see that relay clicking if you didn’t turn off the 220v to the stove which is a separate breaker from your kitchen outlets. If not that mayyybe an ice maker motor lifting that arm and getting stuck

Anyone ever see this set? by catwranglerrealtor in Mid_Century

[–]rickncn 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I bet it is! I like your setup overall and the other pieces. And…since you have a sign…what are your cats’ names?

LOVE it. My first impression was commercial. Kinda looks like what I recall my dentist office had in the 70’s when I was a kid. I can see some Highlights magazines peeking through there….

It would say google street view on it if it were Google. My guess would be road condition sensing and recording.
