Thanks for posting those pics, now I am embarrassed about every NM job I have ever done.

While it does look amazing, I would have used emt and gutters, would have looked cleaner and would be a lot more maintainable.

very nice job, I printed one of the pictures and everyone that has seen them are impressed with the neatness and attention to detail, as well as the obvious pride involved.

This house has a rounded stainglass ceiling that will be back lit when done. I can't wait to see it finished.

Now that in itself would be a sight to see!. smile

I just posted these pictures because I thought they looked great. I didn't mean to embarass anyone at all. smile Hell, I thought I did neat work, but this EC was extremely neat. I will try to get back inside when they call for more inspections and I will try to get more photos for all. I want to see for myself the lighted dome over top of the great entry when it is working. I will also try and get some pictures from the outside of the house in general.

That is the some of the best NM work I've ever seen. Congrats to Harold for a job well done.

And here's more from Harold:

Remember I said I was inspecting a very large house. Well I am starting to go back and do final inspections. I took pictures of the wiring that was very neat if you remember. (See neat wires picture.)

Well there is this domed area in the front hallway that is real neat. Here are some pictures of that domed area. I will continue to send more photos as I get them organized.

This picture shows how they framed the whole area out:

The next two pictures were taken inside of the attic showing 8-500 watt quartz light illuminating the back of the glass dome. There is a thermostat inside of the area which kicks on and vents that area if it goes above 90 deg F:

The picture below shows how large this house is. If you look at the picture, there is a large track hoe and smaller front end loader in front of the building:

Harold, that is something else entirely! Beautiful! Let's hope 'she who must be obeyed' never looks at these pics, or we'll have the flipping roof off again!

Residential construction definitely isn't my favorite type of electrical work, but even so, that honestly had to have been a fun house to wire. I bet there are all sorts of neat bells and whistles.
