another good vid sparky.. newer codes require the exhaust fan to automagically come on when there is cooking "507.2.1.1 Operation. Type I hood systems shall be designed and installed to automatically activate the exhaust fan whenever cooking operations occur. The activation of the exhaust fan shall occur through an interlock with the cooking appliances, by means of heat sensors or by means of other approved methods."
just to let you know that your videos have help me alot I know its alot of work but I'm really hoping you do a graph on how the FIRE SUPPRESSION CONTROL BOX works with a diagram just how you explain the time clock with the contactors like I said I know it takes a lot of time but I'm looking forward to see it on your next videos THANKS
@imcj0526 I have to admit that I had to look that one up. The box complies with a few but not all requirements.
I have built at least 20 of those with various configurations over the years and all of them have been inspected and all have passed.
The major thing that most inspectors required was that I put a permanent label stating that this box contains more than one power source and note each source.
How many wires you got in those conduits? Looks a little packed.
AND is that some un-capped grounded conductors I see on the right side, and one on the bottom? You can always get a nick in the jacket that would energize those conductors. I always make sure they are capped or tapped if they aren't in use.
@Ripu2 Yep, by the time I got to that project they had all the wires pulled in which by the way was pulled in by a 20 year JW??? All wires have been capped.
I don't have the concentration or patience to be an electrician. I just know I'd turn on the breaker and *boom*, I wired something wrong. I'll just stick with DIY 120 volt items, IE security light, ceiling fan, etc.

Would this be in the "restaurant from hell?"

shouldn't the components be mounted on a back plate? The box looks a little thin to tap.

@studpuppy69
The lower the voltage, the higher the amperage. 110/120 V has and can kill.
Careful.
