    Electrician needed in SJ

    ok so now check power at the outlet that the AC was plugged into, test (with multimeter) from ground pin to one blade, and ground to the other blade as well, hopefully you will read 120v (should be from ground to hot, hot being black and connected to the brass colored screw) this will confirm...

    Electrician needed in SJ

    ok so #2 you would need to look inside the receptacle outlet to see exactly how it is wired. yes that is a voltage sensor stick you used. You now need a voltmeter to determine if you have a neutral or not. If your neutral wire somehow blew open then you should still read 120v from hot to...

    Electrician needed in SJ

    Oh yeah longshot but check any and all GFCI receptacles too....they have their own test/trip button, it could be wired upstream from your outage. Doubtful but possible.

    Electrician needed in SJ

    Do you have a voltmeter??? Are they three prong receptacles (grounded)?? Or two prong (ungrounded). If you have a voltmeter, test across the two vertical blades (hot and neutral). if 120 its good, if not then check between ground and hot (hot is usually the smaller blade) and ground is the...

    Electrician needed in SJ

    How do you know the outlets are hot?? Using a voltage sensor stick? If you have hot with a voltage stick, you have an open neutral. Hopefully whomever wired the house did not connect both wires in and wires out of every outlet to the receptacle. There should be wire nuts connecting power in...

    Evaporative cooling!!!

    My house has an added "family room" with open beam ceiling added onto the kitchen. Last year I added a MisterCool mini split 24k unit to help cool the non-insulated roof area where my tank sits. Love the unit and its ability to cool as well as heat when needed.

    Walnut Creek tank buddy

    Wow this is something I might want to get into as well, I live in Pleasant Hill right by Dick's Sporting goods. I think that if more of us knew each other locally that it would be much easier for whomever is "watching" your tank while your away....they could have some "backup" people nearby...

    Pump that fits 5g container or advice

    I 2nd this pump, bought two of them, one for mixing saltwater and one for refilling the tank from my brute. Could get by with just one, but preferred two so I have a backup. Before I was using the spare pump for my skimmer, and I think I waited too long and now my skimmer pump impeller is...
