I admire all of you, but I have 30 other things on my to-do list before I can police the internet.

How many violations can we name on just that step? Obvious ones: Stealing power (no meter), no OCPD.

Anyone that would even consider doing that has no business being anywhere near electrical wiring, IMO. If you need temporary power, rent a generator!

In general, if you need that level of detail, you are not qualified to do something like this. It's sort of like taking your first flying lesson in a 747 jumbo jet ... by yourself, with only instructions you got from the web to tell you what to do. wink
