Here are some items that I think may be confusing some for the HI point of view.
–Proper grounding of dual main panels.
–Examples of main and sub panels where the main panel may be only a couple of breakers at or near the meter base.
–How to inspect and make appropriate recommendations for sub panels in completely separate outbuildings (detached garages, for example).
–acceptable and unacceptable wiring examples in attics and crawl spaces
–how to inspect and make appropriate recommendations for breakers serving heat pump and a/c compressors.
That’s all that come to mind, but I may think of others. The trick, I believe is to help HIs understand how they should inspect and make recommendations for such situations without getting tangeled up in the NEC. :mrgreen:
lol…Ben…I am their for only (2) days. My understanding is you wanted an electrical panel type training…lol…ask for electrical panel issues as their is no way we can cover the whole ball of wax…you already did that with someone else…
How about some discussion on electrical equipment like garbage disposals, Air conditioner Max fuse, circuit breaker, range, dryer 220’s is a ground required at metal siding, cable, phone ground/bond and any other related equipment we may encounter at an inspection.
And maybe a few minutes on electrical report verbiage.
Hello Ben, Paul I was wondering if and when you might be doing a episode on the commercial side of things. Just a thought. Looking forward to your upcoming episode. I have been involved with electric for 30 years and it is always evolving that’s why I enjoy it and am looking forward to real estate inspecting always a different day. Thanks for all you do.
I found him and took him to dinner. I tried to learn him somethin’ about how electricity follows the path of least resistance to earth but he was havin’ none of it.
I can talk electrical for days as you all know. I hope nick will have me back for more episodes on many pressing electrical issues. Commercial electrical would make for another great episode…its all up to Nick and Ben as I love coming to colorado.
I took him to a nice Italian (of course) restaurant last night, but I forgot that the menu was written in Italian. We did spaghetti & meatballs. Somehow the waiter found an American beer for Paul. No Coors even though we were a couple miles from the Coors Brewery.
