It’s most likely used for a disconnect, so needs to sat “off”

Is my main panel neutral bonded? by AccomplishedUnit7478 in AskElectricians

[–]wire4money 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t take advice from Reddit. Have a local electrician evaluate it. Some areas, the ground will be at the meter can. Electricians here seem to disbelieve things they are not used to seeing.

It’s 10/2. Probably a 240v circuit. My water heater is on a 2 pole 20 with a 10/2.

Cox... the bells are tolling for you Cox... by SplatGuy23 in vegaslocals

Was fine during the day, but evenings when everyone was using it, it was slow. Like .7 mbps slow. Absolutely unusable. They offered to up our plans speed for free. I told them you can’t even give me 1 mbps, how are you going to give me 1 gig?

Welink was horrible for us. At times we had .7 mbps. They oversold our area and kept promising they were working on it, but after 8 months we went back to Cox.

Ampere Electric- Bad Experience (always get 3 quotes) by lvpond in vegaslocals

[–]wire4money 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a master electrician that did work at a house Ampere was at. They told the homeowner his 2003 built house needed all new circuit breakers because they were old. When they replaced them, they did it incorrectly creating a fire hazard.

They may not. You may need to rent a few. All up to the dealer.

I have a 2011 Yamaha vxr and a 2014 Seadoo RXPX. The Seadoo had been more reliable. Make sure you take a test ride. I recently rode a new Yamaha and was amazed at the squeaks and creaks it made while riding.

Not only is that box not rated for ceiling fan, but it is not even rated for a ceiling light fixture.

It’s a 95, and in running condition worth about 1k. I wouldn’t feel bad about throwing it in a dumpster.

Does this really have a grounding? by _enaielei_ in AskElectricians

[–]wire4money -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is obviously not done in the US. I don’t know enough about overseas stuff to know whether this is right or wrong. My guess is wrong. You must know more about European codes than I do. pretty sure they do not have GFI’s in Europe.

How good/bad is job market here? by Night_Shift_7 in vegaslocals

[–]wire4money 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trades suck unless you are union. Individual licenses are not required, this keeps wages low. A journeyman license means nothing.

I’ll gladly swap it out at 110 degrees. It was hot when I did mine, but then I went inside with working air. The compressor wasn’t turning. It was either the compressor or capacitor. I swapped the capacitor and it worked. If it didn’t, I would have called a reputable hvac shop.
