  1. Thanks. Here is a picture of the label in the panel, best I can read is 100 AMPS. Download Attachment: AMP. Medium.jpg 55.42 KB
  2. Question: 2/0 AWG going to a 200 amp main breaker inside a box rated for 100 amps. Is this a safety concern? What recommendation do I make? Thanks in advance. Mark
  3. I own a Werner, bought at Lowes. It is very sturdy and is the primary ladder I use. My only complaint is it is awkward to extend and move around when extended. You have to lay it on the ground and slide each end out, then you have a 20+' ladder laying flight on the ground that you have to pick up and lean against a two story house, awkward, especially if there are power lines or tree near by.
  4. That leads to the question why the canvas cover? Why not just the rubber?
  5. Thanks guys, TIJ is great! I guess there is no reason for concern.
  6. A few questions for the more experienced electrician/inspector. Basically I just want to know whatever I can about this wire, its sheathing, rating, etc. In the attached photo, the 3rd and 4th wires down appeared to be aluminum. However the 4th one (with red covering) has a few nicks on it that are copper in color. Why are the nicks that color? It makes me think it is copper on the inside…? The house was built around 1930, the panel was rated at 100AMP, and the main breaker was 70 amps. Thanks for the help. Download Attachment: Wire.JPG 84.88 KB
