RSmike,

I see all the new "plug and play" systems as a sign of progress.

Furthermore, if I am a building owner, I have every right to get the most functional and code compliant system for the least money possible. If that means using all modular wiring systems, so be it.

We don't have a right to dictate to customers what they should use if they aren't willing to pay for it. The beauty of the selection on the market is that we can choose the best product for every situation.

Sometimes, that means using all pipe and wire, like a pharmecutical plant. But there are many times when flexible/modular wiring will do just fine.

Here are a couple more of the pictures I took.

This is how the exterior light was mounted, and then a picture of the flying splice that was buried in the attic insulation.

Nice looking panel, well done. Still amazed at what people do with electricity even after living with it for over 100 years. Send more pics as you go along. Looking forward to seeing them

Do you remove the ceiling fan that was shown? What did you do with that?

I'll make you a deal...

Fill out your profile & I'll answer your question.

Thanks,
Dave

Since you brought up the subject of profile, I looked at yours, then at your homepage.

That paint scheme on the truck is a real eyecatcher!! Do you have other vehicles (or even equipment and tools for that fact) marked in a similar manner? With all the guys here who talk about equipment and tools being stolen, something marked like that would really stand out .

One truck so far, but I went through a can of orange paint marking my tools last Saturday. My motivation was the recent theft of tools in Greyslake which isn't very far from here.

BTW, I mark my tools with my driver's lic. # and Illinois. Any police officer in the country should be able to look up that number if the tools were stolen.

Dave

Done.

I'm enthusiastic about rewiring that fan & the interior lights...as soon as we have a contract.
