Electrical permitting question

3600W @ 7200V is only 2A. Voltage don't kill, amperage does. Anybody with an MSD and shitty wires can tell you that.
OH? touch the battery terminals.....100's of amps at 13 volts, can you feel the shock....?

See above, been hit with well over 2A many times, still kicking.

You sure you guys aren't secretly turning into democrats? Awful lot of sandy vajay-jays in here. Should I wear a mask while doing electrical work to protect me from random ozone discharge?:flipoff2:

Another one, electricians who get shocked a lot are somone I stayed away from
 
Even funnier is I fucked up the math, it's 1/2A not 2A. Glad all you electrical lawn chair QB's caught that.

You should seriously go out an buy a lotto ticket before your luck runs out.

In my 35 years at PG&E, I know friends and colleagues that at best have lost limbs due to line electrocutions. Several never made it home that night to be with their families.

You treat electricity as a joke.....:rolleyes:
 
Well FWIW the transfer switch was in full effect this morning. Lost power most of the day.

Amp clamp on the feed from the transformer was at 0.2 on both legs. Looks like I did something right.

Then I sent the kids to work in the blowing snow and wind.

You monster:laughing:
 
LNI inspector just left.

He looked at the external wiring, fiddled with the switches on the transfer panel and signed the permit. HE DIDN"T EVEN LOOK AT THE INTERNAL WIRING.

What a crock of shit.

Ive noticed if you do nice presentable work the electrical inspections are usually never more than a few minutes long. You probably did a good job :beer:
