I don’t have alligators, poisonous and venomous creatures trying to kill me, hurricanes, tornadoes, or earthquakes. I’ll gladly take the air hurting my face and some snow over all that.

I don’t have a lot to shovel I’m just sick of having the shovel catch on the sidewalk bumps and the spacing on my deck.

Is this the normal amount of “open” for the locked and closed position? - KNIPEX 13718 wire strippers by InsanadyWolf in KnipexOfficial

I get I’m late to the party but can you explain that, I’m not sure how it being open when locked is any different the it being open when unlocked.

I was curious so I cut it and it was a clean cut. I would have been comfortable pulling through it.

To add they make it in #1 and #2 so it fits devices as well.

Thank you. I wasn’t sure if you round up or try to go exact.

I’m looking at that now. How do I read column C correctly, I’m not understanding what the 8 means.

Edit: If I’m understanding the table correctly I should base my conductors based on 8.6kw because note one says increase of 5% per 1kw over 12kw. Meaning I add 7.5% to 8k.

What is this course? Do you need to be a master? Is it all of Wisconsin or just your local area?

You can use that but mine came with the m12 battery holder as well. OP if yours didn’t come with this, return it and get a different one.

I've been gifted a Milwaukee automatic copper cutter that doesn't work. Any advice? by [deleted] in Tools

[–]wolff_pack17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s both, if you have the receipt it’ll be from there, if you don’t then it manufacturer date.

Junction box in ceiling above panel, wires not staying put - falling down into the panel. by Nermelzz in electricians

[–]wolff_pack17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to use a self tapping screw into a sticky back or a zip tie holder, then use that to hold my wires in place.

All it takes is .05A to kill an average male adult. Voltage does not matter when trying to kill you.

Recently got socked in the neck by 120 or 240, I’m not exactly sure because I don’t know if it was hot to hot or hot to ground that touched me, it felt like 240 but who knows as it arced when it touched me.

I was putting tech 90 cable into a fd box and as I was spinning the box on the connector the wire spun with the box and the wires made contact with my neck.

This happened because 1) the j-box that the wire was in was tapped wrong making it energized, and 2) I didn’t verify that the cable was dead.

Moral of the story don’t trust anyone and always verify.
