Keystone State Thread

Electrician , break time.

 

New paint?

 

Yep, wish they would of used a ruler lol.

 

Some serious switch gear you got there. You PM'ing or installing?

 

Ok, is it me or did I miss something? Where is Mark? I liked his early morning hellos but haven’t seen him lately? Mark, you go the way of Critter?
Miss that critter by the way.

 

No. I was wondering the same thing. Hope all is well.

 

Same. I hope not.

 

We just did a big upgrade to back up the whole hospital with gen power. All the meter data plus open close functions is all computer based via a private network. Still learning and playing....

 

Happy Friday all I’m off to cut the grass (hope for last time this yea)

 

Not meaning to snoop Colonel, but I checked his profile. He was on today. So, he's still here.

 

Since I tend to walk through my yard throughout the winter, either as a shortcut to the mailbox or sometimes when walking the dog or burning cardboard in the backyard, I cut mine until the end of October - sometimes even the first few days of November. But, if I have my way, it's going to be every two weeks, so that means maybe 2 more times. It's always a chore by this time if year, just like shoveling.

 

It’s amazing how much smaller (by comparison) the new gear is to the original. Again, we’re talking 40 years. We had ours at the college replaced a few years ago and had room to install an automatic transfer switch- we have duel power coming in - in the same space as the old equipment. Not something I would screw with knowing that it will kill you if you mess up. Local company guys that did it are like, no big deal, we do this every day. Special skill for sure.

 

Fun stuff, I work R&D building the type of boxes that go in those panels.

 

Amazing how much info is packed inside those meter packs. History , live data, trends,trips...... these are Eaton meters. Not sure who makes them for Eaton.

 

Eaton is one of our competitors, as well as GE, Snyder, allen bradley. Got the chance last year to go into the field to see our boxes in action, was pretty cool seeing them not in an office building.

 

Good evening all. Just got back from Mercer NJ. teaching an active shooter preparedness class for churches.

I may have met @TinyTech626 's mom in the class.

 

Job I’m at installed some ABB main gear. Send some swag our way

 

Good morning all!

off to Critter's neck of the woods today for CPR and Advanced Bleeding Control classes.

 

Good morning PA and surrounding areas. A trip to Costco is on the schedule this morning, Then, I think I will enjoy the great Fall weather by doing some cleanup of our porch, by putting away some of the summer stuff. Enjoy your day.

 

Good morning all. Headed to grocery store then the gym. Hoping to get some outside stuff done later this afternoon
