    in cases where the old fixture is being replaced and they have multiple wires without pigtails, I just cut the wires off near the old fixture and leave them as pigtails for the new fixture. ground first, then neutral and last hot. harder to get zapped when you're not grounded. obviously only if the wires is in good shape, decent gauge, connected well and only feeding the new single fixture.

  • @throttlebottle5906

    ok at 16:31, if they ran rigid conduit and transitioned to emt in kitchen, they probably converted from rigid to emt at the panel end also, so somewhere in garage or near is splice boxes or trough. I did see a blank cover below panel at one point, but that certainly wouldn't be big enough. maybe buried in wall or behind junk in garage? it sure won't pull if it's spliced or goes through boxes at angles.

  • @throttlebottle5906
    @throttlebottle5906 День назад

    probably hits the hallway outlet by door (with air freshener plugged in) and maybe other in hallway back towards the panel. likely pulled through and spliced through others along the way too. the fault must have cleared itself when resetting the breaker before, probably a wire nut off somewhere or a device screw nicked into it inside a box. **also, don't think you checked the vent hood, hard to say what circuit it's cobbled onto. lol

  • @throttlebottle5906
    @throttlebottle5906 День назад

    not sure of the age/builder, but it was common to have an outdoor receptacle (front or rear) tied to the kitchen circuit. simply a cost cutting measure to save GFCI, wiring and circuits. good enough to meet code(one at front, one at rear). we did that in new construction in the mid 90's, also garage off 1st floor powder room gfci, sometimes other outdoor receptacles off other bathroom GFCI. still seen it done in 2010+ homes with AFCI/GFCI in panels, they just dangle the front and rear off whatever general lighting circuit is closest.

Google is the way to go… I’m free having tons of 5 star reviews and get a decent amount of work. If I spent money on advertisements I could easily grow but finding decent employees even at $50/h is hard…. Very hard. I’m exteriors roofing, siding etc. also do small builds, additions, garages, and all wood interior/exterior finishes and painting. We’re so spread out tho like 1h 15m from our little town. Filled with rich city folk cottages. The drive kills ya especially if your like me and live 15 mins south for jobs half hour plus away. Hard to be a basic one man show and two guys helping installing. Need a 4 man crew at least that I can leave work while I quote.

    I get that stuff expensive but when you got even basic skills you gotta get paid. Gfci 200ish is about normal with part and cover at 30 to 50 for parts. Or tr outlets are not cheap even in bulk 20ish each? It's hard to have a firm pricing on that too because yoy go to put a cover on it now your cutting hardie plank woops the boxbehind it is broken or dosent have usable threads ect. You can see how all this adds up to oozing money. You sure have alot of metal boxes I may see one per place almost all plastic. I've been doing decora edge alot lately and it's nice in the switch box to just pull the wire and what your doing is isolated without turning off the breaker. One thing people should do and it's required when I do elecical work is pigtailed everything. There us no reason for half a room to go out when one outlet is the issues. In old houses they have alot of feeders and with a simple pigtail you keep them from loss of power. Bla bla all stuff that should be common sense but sense isn't so common anymore (make sure to reuse that 20 year old wire nut 😆 ).

      Know exactly what you mean, some older homes and apartments have outlets and switches "daisy chained" together. guess what? everything in that room and any outlets or 3 way/4way switches maybe even going up or downstairs might be out if you miss 1 wire. I'd still have the breaker off.

      Plus all the driving around… one job could kill your entire day. People sometimes complain of my roof repair price start at $1000. I have to come prepared with everything and return what I don’t need. And drive to far away locations and back. Or 4 times if I forget one thing so repair prices have to be high for rural and size of repair and tools required.

    great video! 20:52 "you should shut the power off" , IMO at least put some temporary tape over the on-off switch, so the homeowner can't accidentally flip it. Also with dry hands you would not get much of a shock in my experience. I never worked wearing nitrile or latex gloves, so I don't know how well the could insulate you.

    That equipment should be worth 100 a clog plus 100 an hour easy! People don't get that tools like that cost money. On a side note the snake looks clean and lubed good for you! I spray ours down as I put it away and there's little to no rust surprise surprise. Something I use for electrical and even plumbing is a baby monitor. I know klein has the Circut tracer and it works fine but nothing beats placing a camera on a tester or drain and seeing what's going on from far away. I don't have to ask tenants if something is on or off/works. Cheap radio frequency non wifi no internet models work great from az. Heck check out resale/used baby clothing shops garage sales name brands dirt cheap. Hope it helps and keep your snake clean 🐍.
