They have someone who is willing to redo the service as is with regular breakers. They want me to do it, but I will not cut any corners to please their cost. Like many other resi's up here, most of it is two-wire. Some of the two-wire is protected now by GFCI's. They are friends, but I won't do the job unless they comply with what I want done. It's either done the way I want it, or someone else can do it. No hard feelings.
I don't need the job that bad to cut corners and leave the old work. My way or the highway, now comes the bashings
Maybe not, anyone disagree? I ran loop impedance testings on all of the circuits, and all of them seem fine. I don't care what my meter says, it's protected properly, or not done by me.
Go ahead, let the opinions rip:smile:
FYI-if you end up doing the work be cautious-those shingels look like ASBESTOS....
