Why does the plug in GAF-500 show proper ground when you hook up as I suggested? Before I did it the tester showed OPEN GROUND.

I know it might not be up to NEC code BUT as I see it: If your wiring does not have a separate bare ground wire (just hot, neutral) you should be able to change your 2 prong outlets to 3 pround...

This was just a joke. My monitor is not 73years old, I am. So it must be my eyes.

I have a 22 inch flat lsc and love it.

Thanks

I replaced all my light bulbs inside and out with fluorescent ones and are very happy with the results both brightness and reduced cost.

I don't see how you can explain it's method of action. You just shampoo your dog with Ivory Liquid and it instantly kills every flea that is on the animal.

As far as why the manufracturor is...

I am terrably sorry, but you don't know what you are talking about. Ivory Liquid is the only detergent that will KILL fleas. I have used it for years and at 73 years old, I know what I am talking...

I am sorry but I thought I had edited and removed this from this post and posted it in a separate one.

Banana stalks will get them also. Also walnut hulls.

I used a funnel and poured about a gallon of gasoline down the hole and it killedthem and a bigt patch of my lawn. I had another one the other day and did not want to kill my lawn so I went to a...

I had fleas once in my basement because I put up a female dog that was in heat and this got fleas in my basement badly.

If there is a ground at the transformer which grounds the main entrance cables then why is there the necessity of a separate grounding rod at the meter or breaker box?

If the entrance cables are grounded at the transformer why is there a separate grounding rod at the main breaker box or meter center?

Meter base? Are you talking about where the actual meter is or the main breaker box? I don't know how it is in the meter center but in the main meter box they are bonded.

There is not a main breaker outside that cuts off the power coming into the house. There is only one Main Breaker and that is in the main panel box inside the garage.

I had my meter center moved to another location due to remodeling. The electrician installed a meter center that had a breaker box incorporated in it sort of like they use in mobile homes. He did...

Why did the inspector want my electrician to separate the neutrals and grounds when I had electrical work done. This is in my main breaker box.

Was that just because he preferred it like that?

Thnks, that is what I thought. I could not see the purpose of double grouning as the housig of the pump motor is already grounded through the green ground wire at the time the motor is wired.
...

If your pool pump housing is grounded via the green ground wire which goes back to the main braker box then why is there a ground lug on the outside of the pool pump?

Anything worth doing is worth doing right. Drain the pool now while you have not wasted too much water, level the ground and re-install your pool and fill it.
Enjoy

Balle is correct. If you are only getting 115 volts to the timer then the times will no advance since it is 240 volt.

I am familiar with qualified domestic relations orders. What I said or meant to imply that any order from state/county court that is contrary to IRS rules will be overruled by IRS.

All and good BUT the IRS rules superceed any court rulings in a divorce.

Sorry, I did not catch that.

You had it covered then.

You forgot the most important ones:

The rest you have covered correctly.

The cord is attached from the niche in order for you to attach the light to the junction box. I am talking about the wiring from your light switch box to the junction box.

Your method sounds better to me. I think I will give me more room by pulling out one of the black wires just leaving 1 wire in the 3/4 pvc. I will then secure a #14 stnded neutral and #14 stranded...

You are correct. His answer was completely useless to me. I don't know what a left handled widget maker is and certinally his directions on how to find it did not help either.

Thanks

Of course if the tree or limb originated from your neighbors property their home owners insurance will cover it if it is live. If dead they will not because it should have been cut down.

How is best way to secure the extra black wire to the tape? Would wrapping it to the tape with black electrical tape be strong enough. I surely don't want it to come apart ald then loose the extra...
