Oh man, don't engineer anything, go to lowes or HD, or electrical supply use and get a fan rated fan box, metal or plastic, either threaded rod expanding type, side hanger (it won't twist the joist, don't worry) or pancake or joust straddle type. Trust me, this is what I do, well, it's not all I...

Bx cable sheeting is rated as ground. A lot of metal boxes are not flush with the wall, so he might need a self grounding Rec.

You can use a grounding clip instead of a ground screw, or drill and tap a 10-32 hole for a gr scr, but easiest thing to do is use a self grounding outlet, thoung I would first check to verify 120v. to the box to make shure the box is actually grounded. In old buildings, things have a way of...

Love the B GT and don't think I've ever seen a jag wagon, cool!!!

I just spent a lot of time flushing my old brake fluid with 185k miles on it out, and the new stuff looks the same as what I flushed out. Don't get too excited, they probably did flush it.

where you put the breaker wont matter as far as voltage drop on the busbar

Toggles will be fine, and just use shims of some type, like fender washers. Of course , don't use bantam plug, but toggles will be fine, 3/16 or 1/4"

There is no worst part to owning a lift!!!

Sycom is great stuff, its what I install, and many utilities. Sycom also will replace it if it gets smoked.

remove the wiring and pipes, install the new joists, then reinstall the pipes and wire. Also, I bet theres some kind of steel plate, teco maybe, that you could use in a shorter section with a lot of screws that would work well.

just measure off the wall however distance you want it from the wall 4' apart

Love the marquette engine anylizer, my father had that same one in his shop back in the day. Like you're speakers and brackets too. Very nice garage!

looks like the gr bus is connected to the nuet bus by flat bar going behind busbar assembly, if so, thats not good if thats a subpanal

Yea, mine were straight lug kits

No man, its not a code rule, its what the manufacturer lists as the hightest branch circuit circuit breaker is approved to go in that particular panal. I've never seen a sq d 200a br that can go in a panal besides being a main br, but, if they make one, and the panal label approves that breaker...

What Alcamist means , I think is, say you have a 200A exterior MB loadcenter, largest circuit br you can put in it is 100a or 125 I think. But if it has feed through lugs that aren't being used, you can use them to run a 200a line to whatever you want. Also, you can get a lug kit (I forget what...

I have NEVER Ben able to pull a wire out of a lug after I've tightened the lug, not even been a loose one. But there are time when you get those luge that when you go to tighten them, the setscrew tends to bind. That's the only thing I can think of that has caused you loose connections. You...

no, it cant jump the score, but any cut into the conductor will derate it, also wiggling it was a bad move. It wont help get a better bite on the conductor, but will open any cut in the wire even more. You must have enough slack to maybe cut that one or so inch off and strip it more carefully...

forget it, it probably has other abrasions from when installed too. But if the copper is nicked, you must replace it. Don't even bother with tape. It will serve no purpose.

It sure is, I know all too wade. You shure that isn't a 42 space panel, I don't recall there being a 32 space available. If so, tellem you want a 42 space panel. And you want full 1"'spaces so you'll have more room and won't need to use halfspace or twin breakers when it starts getting full...
