    Hi, I was wondering how many holes can you make in the top plate for wires going to the main panel. I didn't find much in the electrical code book accept they should be at least 1 1/4" from side of the stud.
  • @Faruk651
    You can’t double up wires on studs? How do you guys wire stuff in a 2x4 wall?
  • Would like to see more close up shots Box & hruund make up splicing. Stacking
  • @dredlew
    I want to upgrade my panel from 100amp to 200amp. I have an old box and not only am I upgrading box but the amps. My question is will the inspector come in the house to test all the outlets or report me to the county for any other building code violations. Its a 100 year old house. Im just wondering if they would do that? Thank you

    I used to ask my ( old) boss about if neatness matters because I have seen what looks like art and I have seen horror shows that pass inspection…..my boss answered that yes, it matters, to the two most important people…….you and me
  • Very interesting, just out of curiosity, what part of the country are you in? Not judging but we terminate at the outlet a little different in Aspen Colorado, still very interesting.
  • @jphomebrew
    Why is it wet inside? We aren’t allowed to rough in unless the house is dried in
  • Is that junction box installed low enough in that room above the door rough in? ruel of thumb is from the ceiling 4" minimum down FROM the top of the installed smoke detector and no more than 12" down from the bottom of the installed smoke detector.
