Just ran into one of these murray panels with the MTL breaker, thanks for the video😊

Exactly what I was looking for to test the volt read at the back of the dryer.

Dude use your meter and show me that you that voltage is 220 volts

3 years of inflation

Welp I'm glad I watched this video before doin so 😅

Why did you tape the white ones black? I thought white is neutral

What about a dryer connection thats 10-3 no ground. Would it not run said display or blower motor? Mines wired 8-3 no ground no issues though. I did debate for a long time whether the neutral wire should hook to the neutral or ground connection of the dryer.

I was trying to figure out why mine had no pigtail wire on the breaker and didnt realize it had a bus bar on the panel the breaker utilized instead of a wire. Thanks for saying that at the beginning of the video. Makes cents now.

Goat status

Thank you. I never knew this. I've turned off my main breaker twice. The house is 20 years old. Luckily I didn't have anything break. I'm keeping this new information in the brain bank. Thanks!

Hi, does that mean I can run two separate panels from one meter?

HOW ON EARTH

Lol. Yeah if you’re in sandy soil. Try that in some Georgia red clay. 🤣 The last time a drove a ground rod, I used a fence post driver. I pulled it off the rod and into my skull. Poured blood, about passed out 😂 , luckily the homeowner was beside me (he was a paramedic) so he took to my wounds. Maybe I’ll try the water next time . 🤣🤣🤣

Thanks COOP ...

Thanks COOP ..

Thanks COOP ...

So where exactly are they needed in the house ? Bedrooms only or more areas ? I’m confused on that

Let's get to it!

If that's the only reason why it shouldn't be done, then I'm not concerned at all about 2 neutrals under 1 screw...

But why might some breakers be off?

What a missed opportunity of hooking up the switch, which is the most questioned and hardest part of the installation.

I have a 100 amp fuse panel that has some circuits/ fuses removed that arnt being used yet others have double lines running to them Can an electrician come in and sort it out by removing the double lines running to them and spreading some out to the unused fuse spots? I’m positive a lot of them are not being used or do I have to upgrade to a breaker panel first? I’m not blowing fuses and have the correct size fuses and I’m not in need of more power I would just like to sort out the panel I also have 3 circuits that are nob and tube which I don’t use any of the receptacles from these , I would like to disconnect these from the panel and run new romex and receptacles to the areas of the house that have the nob and tube receptacles I’m not using I’m completely lost and getting conflicting advice on what’s mandatory any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Hands down good job plan and simple good job

NEC 2023 applicable articles: Conduit size: Ch.9, T4, art. 352 Conductor size: Ch.9, T5 Equation solution: 2.5" PVC SCHED 80 (over 2 wires @ 40% column) = 1.647 #4 THWN = 0.0824 Equation states that there is already (10) #4 THWN conductors in the conduit: 10 X 0.0824 = 0.824 Leftover space within the conduit: 1.647 - 0.824 = 0.85 Out of all the possible answers on the table above, only 10 additional conductors within that conduit would meet the appropriate maximum fill: 10 X 0.0824 = 0.824 = 0.824 < 0.85 (✓) 12 X 0.0824 = 0.9888 = 0.9888 > 0.85 (X) Both 8 and 9 conductors would fit inside the conduit, but the conduit would have not been filled to its maximum capacity, while using 12 conductors would overfill the maximum permitted fill. Therefore, 10 #4 THWN would be the appropriate amount of conductors to put in a 2.5" PVC SCHED 80 that has already been filled with 10 additional #4 THWN conductors.

What the brand name of this unit and where can i buy it

It would be nice if you could show us or make a HOW TO FIx , a main breaker if it doesn't come back on .

That's exactly what I needed to know, but no Noalox?

How would I do this with #6 aluminum wire? I’ve seen it done with blue wire nuts but I know they aren’t rated.

The meter combo as mentioned in the 2020 NEC has been put on hold because of Covid. It has been revised in the 2023 NEC and will be implemented sometime in early 2024.

This was a big help. I can buy the 6 AWG nut but it doesn't come with instructions like that!

Good information, though he talks way to fast.

Great info! And explained promptly. Appreciate it.

why not show how you connected the switch-on-wall connections?

This was on my master electrician exam

How do I splice 3 of these ?

Great ! My electrician will only charge me 500 bucks!

I like your video, explained very well, question though an old homes, if there is no earth ground do you have to install it and/or where do you ground your installation?

Keep up the great work brother love a consistent info 👍🏼🇺🇸

Excellent!! You held my attention all the way through. Thank you for being here on KZbin and also thank you for sharing your knowledge. Kind regards, Steve.

Thank you for explaining this.

You skipped the wiring of the switch.. that the while reason I watched this! I'm confused on the red/vs black

14 seems rather high, but I suppose the size of the room plays into this.... plus low versus high locations within a given room. (standard wall height, countertop, and above bed height)

So if theres a forty foot drop 29 inches to the right of a panel what would you do

I’m no electrician but this was very informative and educational. Thank you for sharing.
