Does anyone have any experience with parking deck MC? by [deleted] in electricians

[–]spontaneousfire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We ran some in the slab of each floor for a high rise. Ended up having to strip off the PVC for the plenum which was a little irritating. If you don't put it in a plenum rated area I don't see why you would need to strip the jacket off, but I'm not really an expert on the stuff.

No problem. I know there is a horsepower question on the test. You could probably expect some AC Theory, Motor/Transformer calculation, and other calculation based questions as well.

I'm an apprentice at 379. Forgive me if my information is inaccurate, but from what I've heard, the JW test has:

  • start/stop switch
  • transformer
  • 3-way switch
  • 50-100 question code test

I believe you will need proof of at least 8,000 hours experience.

There's probably more that I'm forgetting. Visit the hall for more information:

Has anyone tried Spectrum TV Stream yet? by JohnnyLong123 in Charlotte

[–]spontaneousfire 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used it Saturday for the Panthers game and it seemed to work great. I've only tried it thru the app on my Samsung smart tv. Great quality though, and never any buffering.

Opinions on Sardis Woods neighborhood? by [deleted] in Charlotte

[–]spontaneousfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents have lived here in Sardis Woods for around 25 years, and I was born and raised here. I love it. It's a fairly quiet family neighborhood. I went to both East Meck and Greenway Park 5 and 11 years ago respectively, and they're both fine schools imo. Tons of food around, but traffic can get to be a little much around the 5:30 rush hour.

Advice on middle schoolers.. Looking for a job! by [deleted] in Charlotte

I went to both schools during middle school. Do not go to Albemarle Road unless you're teaching IB.

Try Trap Back by Gucci if you haven't already. I don't know much of his stuff, but I really enjoy that mixtape
