I stay away from “stud” grade and recommend #1 or “structural select” lumber for all my electrical work.

Hi to all,


this is clearly wrong, any fool knows that 2x4's are only rated for 15 amps, that 40 amp circuit needs at least a 2x8 and as it is exterior it should be presure treated, my god don't you guys know anything ![icon_lol.gif](upload://zEgbBCXRskkCTwEux7Bi20ZySza.gif) ![icon_lol.gif](upload://zEgbBCXRskkCTwEux7Bi20ZySza.gif) ![icon_lol.gif](upload://zEgbBCXRskkCTwEux7Bi20ZySza.gif)

Whoever did this probably thought he was following the NEC…The knucklehead electrical code.
