    Automated purge for air compressor

    Hi Guys, I have an air compressor in an installation where it doesn't run very often and it tends to get a lot of water in the oil. It's a large compressor (7.5 hp, 120 gallons) and when I bought it I used a lot of air but right now it barely ever runs except to compensate for air loss in the...

    Is this where the magic smoke comes from?

    I was running a sub from my ancient main panel and noticed some white **** above the lugs in nearly all of the ancient breakers in the panel. On the new breaker I put in there is just a square with plastic film over that area so I'm guessing this is some type of corrosion and probably bad. Can...

    When to run a subpanel

    Hi all, I'm running a compressor and a welder with two branch circuits off my main panel right now and I'm trying to decide if I should just run a sub panel.
