That's why I posted it, there were allot of questions as it was bieng installed. I had one person doing it one way and another A different way. Anything else you guys see that needs to be addresed?

I will check if there is a place for it. I put the boxes in but I didn't do the wiring. Didn't notice that the bushing in the panel wasn't there, dang!

Ok, I understand now, why did it come with it attached like that?

OK, ill pull it out.

Which are you referring to here? Sorry, im electrically incompetent! Is this the ground from the CB panel inside (left side) to the service disconnect on the outside?

Ok,I see the now that the meter wires should be on the bottom. I will check the diagram. I think he thought it was that way because its a ground service. This is why the meter socket has the wire to the neutral bar. If PVC conduit is used through the wall between the meter base and the...

What exactly is backwards on the meter socket? And are you talking about the panel box when you say the grounding & grounded are bonded together? They are connected on the bottom. That's why I posted an enlarged pic as Stuart said they should be isolated???

If you notice on the bottom, both buses are connected together. Ground wire comes in on the left, neutral on the right.

I am completely redoing the electrical in a building that I am renovating. All the previous electrical was stolen. I have had two different opinions (from "experts") on how the wiring in the box is suppose to be. I am no electrician, so I want someone who knows what they are doing to give me...

Found some pics before we started.

Got the building close to being done outside, I still need to do the trim. Thirteen days of work into this place! There was 2 of us all the time and we had some help a couple days.

Thanks! This building is in Houston, I did put some hurricane clips on the rafters I replaced, but it would have been really difficult to retrofit them onto the existing stuff. On Guam we build everything out of concrete, walls, roof etc...

We also picked up the roll up doors this morning and my cousin stopped by to help us install them. We needed four people as they are heavy! They set it, while I secured it in place. Rear door. Front doors installed. Office door framed in and the window framed in. Hopefully we finish up...

I had the helper for another day and he continued the cleaning while we worked on the building. This is the slab getting cleaned up!

I hired a helper for the next day so he could clean up while we worked on the building. A friend volunteered to run the tractor while the hired help shoveled all the trash into the bucket. They did a great job and really cleaned up the area. Here is the right side of the building cleaned and...

Started the week by finishing up the the back of the building. You can see the right side of the building in the picture. That side is a real mess with so many vines and trash, the septic system is under there somewhere also. After we finished up the back we started framing out the new...

We didn't do too much today, cleaned up the storage shed so it was easier to store stuff, then did a little work on the walls.

Thanks! I was ready to tear it down and a friend changed my mind. I am glad he did. It is a ton of work, but since we are doing everything, I am getting away with the cost of materials. I love your build by the way! I am from Guam and we build everything out of concrete! I don't see it...
