    Good stuff. I had to apprentice for a foreman that couldn't follow the print properly. He kept doing his own thing and blaming everyone else and they wouldn't let me transfer. I remember he tried to throw me under the buss but I stood up for myself. That's not how this works he shouted! Every time he failed at building a transformer rack I had to shoulder the bundles of strut several flights up to a roof along with everyone elses material. I put up with it for months until my back got really sore. Did you know a conduit runners injury can inflame your spine? Know how to read your print for the love of all things sane know what you are doing and don't waste someone time! Going to remove this from my feed because all I get is PTSD when I think of electrical work these days haha.

    you mentioned 2 ground rods because it is in the desert. what is the purpose of that?

    • @WARHAMMERELECTRIC
      @WARHAMMERELECTRIC  Před 2 lety +1

      Short answer : is New Mexico ground isn’t very good at ohming because it is so dry here - longer answer: our state requires us to install two because most areas can not produce the min ohm resistance of 25 however if we had one more ground it make the difference needed.
