I was about to start a thread on this subject but looked at the suggested threads and decided to join the conversation. However, there is very little information here so far. I have a small lower box that is tired and I want to use it in a perfectly sized position just to the side of my mill...

You're right, time to let it go. ***** range could have an electric clay pigeon device too. Another panel makes a lot of sense. I believe I'm done here for now. IDT I'm going to hear any more from the project. Thank you all, gentlemen. It's been my pleasure. Maybe when something else comes...

OK. Does that assume some idiot didn't connect that extra wire to a ground rod? Let's say this '***** lighting' has a lot of steel frame work, some in the ground. I would not even suppose they provided an UFER in the frame work anchors, but the question is, can someone think they are providing...

I agree, one extra neutral which makes me wonder the same as sparky. Is that their idea of a GEC?

The more I look at it, shouldn't the left bus be the EGC that also should be connected to the GEC of which we don't see any. Also, the red wire on the RS neutral bus that goes into the non box connected KO is, well, what is it besides just wrong? I think I see where the neutral bonding screw...

Thank you, @Sparky. This is not my job. I don't live in TX. I'm just familiar with the owner. At first, the observatory builder was going to attempt this but I said don't touch it, get someone that knew what they were doing (licensed, if this is in an AHJ that requires one. I see in TX that the...

I'm sorry, I don't understand your post ^^^ at all. I realize the existing panel with all of its violations does not exceed 6 switches and certainly won't after the 100a breakers are removed. But I did a search on sub panels in series and the requirements of disconnects, when and where, and even...

So, there is a question involved aside from the mess that constitutes the panel. The plan is to add another sub, probably need 50-60 amps for a small outbuilding that will contain an observatory. Small motors, some lighting, although that's not going to be much, a computer, and a small window AC...

According to the original post the 2) 100 amp breakers were for ***** range lighting. The rest is for the birds.

I like and have many of the LED bulbs with the photo eye in the house near windows and on the patio. They seem to last a long time. I don't write this stuff down but they don't need replacement often. I'd say 5 years average as a guess. Some longer. Another idea I have used if the wiring is in...

Thank you, WD. It would be in the ceiling joists framing and unprotected. The height to the bottom of the lowest beam is 7'. The joists are not quite 8' from grade. Is there, was there an 8 foot rule about exposed NM-b? Also, I need to run up the wall from the only receptacle (I forgot to...

What is a way to not need a GD GFCI? I think maybe hardwired? If so, is MC allowed? I really don't want the opener to not work when needed. I know it shouldn't trip if everything is done correctly, but there's always that one time and it's hard to get to. Minimum electrical in garage. Just the...

I've had these for over 30 years in use and never a problem.
