To justify their steroid use, especially because they got stuck on bike patrol.

Power linemen have phasing sticks to determine which phase is which.

Datacom wires are, to start, much lower on the pole than power cables, and have markings on the cable jacket to determine what the cable actually is (fiber, coax, tel, etc). Beyond that, there is usually some tagging at each service point.

PBS is being threatened as a whole, and not just because they're inclusive, but because they are an entity for the public benefit, and the current assholes at large hate that sort of thing. I sincerely doubt they want to do this, but if there's any hope of them continuing their mission, how do you propose they handle it? I'm really not trying to be a dick here, and it's horseshit that we're at this point as a society, but I can see where they're at.

Better to lay down one battle to keep fighting a war.

Ah gotcha. It's possible that they were a pain to get to without destroying the plaster/drywall and the previous owner was tapped for money, it happens. But yeah, make sure no heavy loads, especially space heaters, and you're probably fine.

Might wanna have that wiring in your house checked out, that 50s wiring can be a little on the sketchy side.

They certainly do, they advertise it as such and they performers very much tailer the shows to their audiences.

Possibly better than the front falling off.

Used existing pool panel on left, added contactor box on right. Left two contactors control pool and spa circ pumps and always on (no variable speed or hi/low legs on motor), coil controlled by emergency shutoff. Right contactor controls spa jet pump, activated by twist timer and same emergency shutoff. Spa jets are run through the right time clock to allow usage from 7am to 10pm. Left time clock is for lighting.

 

Our morning safety meeting definitely didn't involve us watching the apprentice look for the wire stretcher.

Electronic racking system; story goes that the previous guys didn't seem to like how it seated, so this was their 'solution.' Yes, those are 4x4s and a bottle jack.
