I would add a conduit strap to each of those conduits about 8 to 10 inches below the timer box.
You are definitely correct. Great catch! Thanks
Next up on the list for me to do at our house we just moved into about 3 years ago. Wife insisted on having an electrician do a bid; She determined that my offer of just a dinner and a kiss was better than the $300.00 bid the electrician gave her to do the job. 😆Works for me, Happy wife, Happy life 😉
Sounds like it’s a win all the way around. Please be safe and if you have any questions, please ask. Thanks again. Your Electrician Buddy
@@YourElectricianBuddy Safety first, Already replaced our main panel from a 1960's Bryant panel to a new 200 amp SquareD and attached two new grounding rods and attached it to the poured cement pad that had a grounding lead right next to the Service Entrance location, no one bothered to tie it into the bonding for the house....🤔 Sometimes I scratch my head when I see safety things not taken advantage of...Passed inspection with the city and the inspector asked if I was an electrician. Nope just had to do tons of things in the military and as a firefighter. Now retired. 🥳
@@BackwoodsLaw definitely your training is paying off. Sounds like you have retired with good health. As for safety, yes I have come across some really scary things. True we are always learning and the longer time goes on safety has to be refined daily.

Thanks.
Great work
Thank you so much 😀
Great video! I have an old house with a metal box on the inside of the home. I want to use that for power to run to my new box outside. Is it up to code if I drill through that box?
Thanks for the compliment. Most metal boxes have a 1/2 knock out stamped in the back. But if not you can drill out the hole and insert a plastic snap-in connector. Here is what I use. RACO Plastic Connector, Snap-In: Thermoplastic, 1/2 in Trade Size., Item 1RVZ1 Mfr. Model 4714. This is a Granger number Hopefully this helps. Be safe! Your Electrician Buddy
