Type in the capacitor specs and do a web search. This item is available from a number of internet sources.

HK, thanks. Using that calc I have slightly over 13 amps-I installed a lot of lights w/40 watters. Will up grade to 20amp/12 gage.

Question: Are the amps listed on a fluorescent light ballast the amount continuously drawn, or the max under certain conditions?

I recently installed some older T-12/magnetic ballast lights in my...

I tried to cover everything in my post, but omitted the fact that the small run of FMC will be IN the eve, not exposed to the elements, and connected to a surface mount flood--so my question is...

I'm installing an under eve outdoor floodlight, the standard two bulb type, going to use 150W floods. I also plan on using two switches so I can control each lamp separately. It will be wired with...

Code generally does not allow CATV cable and electric light/power conductors in the same raceway. There are exceptions, but with your current setup, it cannot be done.

Operator error -did'n mean to quote myself. As for the over ride setting, I guess I'll call the softener co. again and get more detail and describe the situation in more detail.. Thanks for a...

I have a Fleck 5600SXT electronic metered water softener that was in the house when I bought it. The softener appears to be working normally, but I have a question on the flashing service icon to...

I had the water anlayzed at the county health department, and I confirmed the program settings through an internet search and also with a call to a local water softener company. I guess I'll watch...

Strat,

I was thinking that also, the load in general won't be great, lights and some power tools, but I will have a true 5HP compressor on the set up, so I'm not really keen on using a reduced...

My ongoing project;

Small subpanel in attached garage- feeders will be #6 THHN copper and eqpt. Gnd. #10 THHN copper. Per Table C.1, 3/4" EMT will take four #6 THHN. The run will have two 90...

You have a real mixed bag of info here. To accurately determine your wire/breaker size look at the metal tag on the motor, hopefully the tag is still there. It will give the rated horse power,...

The OP said DAP was used first, & it was replaced by Mono Ultra bath and still having a problem. That leads me to believe it's not the caulk. I've used GE silicone and it is a good product. Strong...

In case u don't see it below, the gaskets should be available at any plumbing supply. Home depot and Lowe's don't sell Rheem/Richmond, at least in this area, so they wouldn't have it, unless the...

Thanks for the help guys. After reading your replys it made me realize it was my error using the term bonding versus equipment ground. When we relocated the panelboard and installed a service...

I highly doubt the caulk is the problem, especially if you had to replace it three times since summer. No caulk breaks down that fast. GE and DAP are both good products-just make sure you use a...

Need a recommendation, or maybe some clarification, for sizing a bonding wire.

Installing a small subpanel in an attached garage, and the feeders will be #6 copper. Per Article 250, it states...

Thanks guys. The upper crawl is the "attic" area. The sealer I see on the boxes now makes sense as all of the conduit going from the hallway through the garage wall is also fire stopped/sealed. I...

My question concerns sealing a box cover to the junction box.

I saw reference to this on a home improvement show. Also, some junction boxes are visible on the lower level near the parking...

I like things easy so the 1 1/4" it is. Yes, the wire is dual marked THWN-2 or THHN

Question concerning the use of 1” or 1 ¼” EMT. I’ve referenced the NEC tables for conduit fill, but I’m concerned about the ease of the wire pull, and the amp/derating factor, which I am not that...
