That's OK. Let's keep that a mystery.

Two family service, approximately 50 years old:



1st and 2nd floor Federal Pacific panels without main breakers:



200 amp Square D QO (3) 125 amp main breaker position meter stack for 1st floor, 2nd floor, and new owners meter:



100 amp main lug only Square D QO panels for 1st floor, 2nd floor, and new owners panel:



Updated grounding and bonding to code. This is the first job I had to pull permit for. Pretty cool. The cardboard in the meter stack is for the new owners meter which doesn't get released until the town inspection has approved the installation and the power company receives the cut-in card.

Magnettica - ever do any work in PA - suburbs of Philly?

We could use an electrician like you around here, that actually cares what the finished install looks like.

Excellent work.

Small Bathroom Insurance job - new shower, drywall, sub flooring & tile - everything else remove & reset (Gotta to love the wiring - nope I didn't mess with it at all)

I would have easily had this finished last Friday - but the 45 min mud wouldn't dry out (12 hours later)

Nope - not part of the original claim, nor would they pay for it --- Covers were on everything & all the materials missing on the outside of the bath are still missing (I have no idea what the HO is / was trying to do there)

Not kinda it is butt ugly. I do as I am told now I stopped trying to give suggestions. I just close my eyes and get the check.

We got to wet the stone dust down and level it up a bit more. The sun is killing me and the other old man. It's fun though

Its not done yet. Got 2 more parts to add. Should be done Friday.

Excellent work.
Do I need a license in King of Prussia, PA?

I'm just starting out and could really use the work.

Thanks for the compliment.

Not much to that walkway but at least done by a non-hack licensed contractor so at least you know it's done right.
