Steve:
No the panel is either RX or the old BX no bonding strip. In the basement ''Monkey Faces" are so pervasive it could pass as a zoo. The K&T is everywhere and it isn't the problem its all the splices that are everywhere no boxes just splices and cheap tape.
The owner first said well we got a new panel... and its hell-ooo but the rest of the house is a violation, there is no grounding ....although the water line is run to the house But they still use the well-pump and thats another nightmare two pumps two tanks only one is in use but both are so corroded probably drop half the voltage before it gets to the pump...
You are right I gotta say something to somebody......
But this is the same throughout the county especially in the City.
The thing that gets me is you try to do a good job be on top of everything and Nobody listens.
Alot of this stuff is section 8, which is paid for by our taxes, that is for sure and cant change that, leastwise it doesnt look like it but we as taxpayers pay on the average 800 dollars a month for these dumps, I say at least, cant we get our moneys worth.
Just Un'dirtyword'believeable
Steve, thanks for listening.
