Some Sort of New Safety Protocol?

Joe,

I'm typically just a lurker on ECN because I'm an unlicensed, homeowner electrician. Yeah - one of those DIY'ers that most professional sparkys get the shudders over.

Still, the only red tag I ever got was for Fire-stop 'cuz I didn't know about it. My wiring is neat, labeled and properly installed to the point of torquing terminals.

I guarantee that you'd rather work in any panels I've installed rather our old main service panel.

Had I known about ECN, I would have taken a picture of that old rat's nest!

Anyway, I took this picture at a restaurant near where I live. I had my camera on max zoom, but was across the brook in their parking lot. If you look you can see conduit, a j-box and tools on the wall.

I especially like the "grounded for safety aluminum ladder".

Is that how we're supposed to work?? [Linked Image]
