  • Be careful when changing out buss bars. U L listing may go to way side. Start messing with that could run or say can run into problems.ever talk to u l lab rep. They want a ton of money to recert that panel.i change out th o new panels no messing with panels guts for me .late

  • @albduke1 Very good point thanks for bringing that to or attention!

  • Just to let you know that i enjoy your videos and visit them several time a week well I was wondering if you can put videos of different jobsites of how to run pipe and especially how to make racks for pannels and disconnects also if you have ideas on how to make reccess racks for A/C units I would really apreciate it THANK ALOT AND I REALLY ENJOY YOUR VIDEOS its hard to find people who wants to teach all this things your posting thanks

  • @JESUS1982M Thanks for your comment! I am glad the videos help. As far as your request I will be going to a project where they make steel decking for pouring concrete on soon and expect to gather a lot of industrial applications.

  • Most electricians fail to remember, you don't have to replace the entire service panel because of a burnt or damaged bus. Just replace the bus. You save your customer a thousand dollars. Just have to know where to get a bus replacement. Luckily for me, I know where to find them today, which I knew that twenty or thirty years ago. I like making money, but I don't like ripping off my customers when there's a cheaper alternative. A bus replacement $30. to $100. plus labor.

  • @laspulgasgunners Yes that is a option IF you know where to get them. When I did this change I didn't have the option. I now have a supplier that sells interiors only. Most often,like this project your also replacing breakers too.

  • Well sparky another call I had ,big multi meter service had a couple main breakers roast plus buss is burnt . Equipment is older cant find parts .you get new breaker fab some buss for temp .i had apartment manager sign waiver that was temp. Repair then they dont want you to come back for what ever. I think next time will ask inspector at city hall what to do write up on invoice temp. Only pending notifcation of local inspectors let city know let them make call on u l listings etc. or call lawyer
