    There's no 220. I was / am a commercial electrician.

    Hope you turn them off. I could show you a video of one cross phasing, and it sets the dummy in front of it fully on fire.

    I'm just too tired. Need to get a top set done on Casper anyway.

    Gotta get teeth cleaned too.

    ****Disclaimer **** I do have alert set for a galactically stoopid number.

    Brain farts were getting bad yesterday. That would be why I stopped playing with the Electric.

    Yes should have been 240. Yes I shut that stuff off before playing with it.

    The guy before did stuff that "worked" but was definitely not to code/standards. Dude had a low amperage 240 and a string of 120 outlets run off the service interrupt switch for the well. Pulled all the added extras off the switch. And will replace the switch today.

    Federal breaker box in there currently will get replaced with a QO Square D

    You know there's different AIC ratings for the breakers right?
    Might wanna see what some are in some of the other panels.
    Most common for that voltage is 12000, but sometimes you do have to go higher.

    Well just got bribed. Warehouse move Good price per load. Going to be more time loading or unloading than driving. They figure I can do 4 or 5 moves Sunday.

    Enough to pay an electrician to Verify my work and do hookups so Dave does not stress out the cats....
     
    sawmill and Dave_in_AZ Thank this.

    Well I think my new compressor in my APU just died.

    I'm looking at the invoice, and it's a written warranty, still in time, so I guess it's good I didn’t book another load, and that it died tonight, since I'll be home tomorrow.

    I think it's the compressor cause everything turns on except the compressor, which is what it did last time.

    Rebuild whole system again??? I hope not, but it is what it is.

    When my APU did that it was the CCU board. About $330 and an hour to install it myself.

    What is the CCU board? How would I determine that?

    It worked fine up until last night. It even worked earlier today when I turned it on during my break, now is kaput.

    IF you have a Carrier it's in the black box that contains the compressor and blower motor under the sleeper. I didn't do a lot of troubleshooting with mine, I just talked with the Carrier dealer and they told me that 90% of the time the board is what's fried. You remove the cover of the black box and it sits right on top of the evaporator coils. A few screws and a few plug in wire harnesses and it's in. The hardest part was moving the mattress up so I could get to it.

    Patience has 0 to do with it. I'm just tired. Be home tomorrow. You don't know how hard it was not to book myself out for what would have been another 11 days, perfect circle lol.
