Oh OK then that's another l thing I misinterpreted the meaning of then. Yeah you're right I agree and I know all this. I was raised to do **** the right way and not half *** stuff. My dad told me a million times "there are no shortcuts in life" and "there's only one way to to things in life...

No I won't do that because I'm sure you know more than me about this stuff and you could be of help in the future if you wanted to and I'm not that petty im just grumpy so I'll just apologize and if you haven't blocked me yet maybe you will see this. So I apologize for the disrespect, I...

Thanks, I can process replies much easier when they're worded tactfully like this. And that's why I came here, for help from professionals. And that's what I got. You all answered every question I've had so far and I am following all of the recommendations that have been made to me except I...

Texas uses 2020 NEC also. It would probably **** to do electrical installs across multiple states and have to keep up with all that. Thank you for all your help 🙏 I think by builder I meant the electricians that the builder hired, or residential electricians. I was just sharing an observation...

Ok so then I'm calling the power company and complaing tomorrow then because the licensed electrician built the pedestal and then the inspector from power company came and infected it, then workers from power company came and connected it a few days later. So all those people should have been...

So there is not a single code that is open to interpretation or a gray area in all the electrical codes? Out of all those codes there is not one word or phrase in any of them that an inspectors decision and the builder's compliance is dependent upon interpretation of the language? So builders...

I did nothing, tbh I never even gave it a thought until now. I assumed the electrician or power company handled that correctly. I'll go look and take a pic... Ok it looks like just a metal lock nut and pvc screw on piece that's like a lock nut/cap thing. Not sure what that's called but I'll...

Ah OK gotcha. A lot of the codes seem to be almost a bit discretionary like it depends on the inspector's opinion and depending who inspected they may pass or fail it. Or they will have an "unless" caveat like "you cannot use this unless it's doing this" when overall for the hardware it doesn't...

Ok I got it visualized and locked in, thanks for the help. Do I need to use the same size grouding rods for the pedestal as in the shed? The pedestal is 200amp service. And I payed that dude $1,650 for that pedestal + install which I've no clue if that's high or low. I do know now after messing...

I have no clue what's in that conduit. I'd be happy to cut that tag of the power company off and look inside though and post a pic if you'd like. Actually I'm curious myself now so I'll do that soon. The yellow cable on the right is just an extension cord running temporary power to my shed. The...

Oh and I bought a 100 amp breaker already for the meter pedestal to supply the shed, you and I think one other person said use a 90 amp...will a 100 amp work? And if you don't mind would you explain the reasoning behind using a 90 amp please when you have time? It seems like I should use a 100...

Yes meter is to the left, I'll attach a pic. The electrician that installed this meter pedestal said no ground rods were needed. I asked him 3 total times if he was sure about that and he confirmed. He also took 6 weeks to build this pedestal. He also didn't have an in use weatherproof cover on...

So the grounding rods need to be 8 feet deep and 6 ft apart, now will they connect to the panel with copper wire or will the rods extend up to the box which seems doubtful cuz they'd be 15 ft long so I'm guessing connect with wire? And the wire for grounding rods will need to come up thru the...

Excellent thank you. I can do these things.
