A story i'm sure some of you fellas can relate to......we pull a permit on an older 3 unit rental , new owner with renovations going on in every end of it.

It's one of those jobs that never seems to end , and it drags on for months , with the trades appearing as necessary

So the owner calls , one unit is being rented on the weekend , but some funky things happening.

We arrive to find a BX circuit , does the whole 2nd floor, some dead receptacles, many reverse polarity

I can't imagine we would drop the ball so badly, but looking around revealed a new fan light install that we couldn't recall doing.

On closer dismantling and investigation a steel pancake was found made to an older buried octagon (the ring was a ceiling medallion with the 'receiver' stuffed up in the floor) >>>
