  • the pipe that run to it goes to the light and the wight wire run to the tornado siren if you follow it you can see it from 0:25 to 0:32

  • @jk1567 the white wire goes from the light switch to the tornado siren

  • flip that switch, i dare you. >;)

  • Heres what I have noticed...

    Thats not a single pole switch, which would have "on" and "off" on the toggle. Its a 3 way switch that is most likely wired so that when the switch is flipped up it will do one function, and when it is flipped down it will do another, but will never be turned off.Either way, Romex should not be outdoors unless it is type UF-B and would not be able to carry the current that a siren draws.

  • @cheetawolf Switch it! xD

  • @WheelockAlarms All that romex wire does is charge the batteries, so that's 15 amps at the most that siren puts on that romex

  • @deafmonk24 "So here we are in Dixon, Tenessee. With one of their Tornado Sirens. If you come down, you follow this power line over here, and you notice that Romex wire. Now, with this Romex wire, you will notice it goes to a light switch. Which, has been turned off. That, is how you put thousands of people's lives at risk. Dixon Tenessee, just why." Is what he said.

  • fail lol u flip it and it gose turns on

  • @jk1567 Whoever installed this one is. The service feed comes in under ground. I've seen it in person and I'm an electrician. The Switch IS tied into the siren.

  • Sorry 16V1T *typo

  • Sentry 16V2T

  • Flick the switch !
