Please help me to identify the purpose of this box. It sits under the roof and between my and my neighbor's houses (semi-detached). It was installed before I became an owner, so I have no idea what is that. It looks like it was sealed with duct tape which now came unstuck and the box now opened...
I am connecting a manual transfer switch to a subpanel. In order to minimize drywall work, I am mounting the transfer switch to the surface of the drywall. The subpanel is flush mounted (even with the surface) to the drywall. There are 14 THHN wires that need to get from the junction box into...

I'm taking a look at the 120v wiring in an old travel trailer that I recently bought, and plan to live in full time soon. It has some quirks that I will explain below, but first here's a pic and diagram of what's going on:
Here's the breaker box as it sits now
And of course, a diagram to...

Hi everyone.
I hope this post finds you well. I have recently hired an local electrician to extend my living room lighting a few cm forwards. Long story short, he didn’t seem to know what he was doing and now my light is On even when I switch it off. I have attached my previous ceiling rose...

hello, we recently had our siding replaced with hardie board. Where there was a wall mounted light the siding installer left 4" round hole that is slightly less than 1" deep. The old wire just comes out through a hole in the plywood sheathing and there is a 4" diameter x 1/2" thick electrical...
Hi Guys,
I have seen this in a loft and wondering if it is legal, the junction box is open of course.
also one cable (1.5mm flex connects to a 3amp labelled FCU to an extension lead).
it seemed the cables weren't able to fit as it was jam packed and someone added some wagos ontop.
Can i keep...
New construction in USA. I think that the builder put ceiling fan rated boxes in the ceiling. But when I remove the cover, I see a strange box. Picture attached. It's hard to make out all of the details, because the painter sprayed it.
Have you seen this brand/style box before?
There are two...

Two electricians looked at the breaker box in an older mobile home in the US. They said things are fine and the electric company just wants money. The electric company says in order for them to turn on power for the mobile, the breaker box has to be moved. They cut the lines at the top of the...
Noticed this product being promoted earlier on Youtube (can't remember who and don't remember any mention of it being a paid promotion) and just had a look at it. Maybe I'm being over-critical, but it looks as though someone decided to reinvent the wheel and decided a pre-punctured tyre would be...
Hoping someone might find this a challenging puzzle - I'd be grateful for any help and sorry in advance for the lengthy description!
I think I’ve inherited some creative wiring.
I need to replace a 3-way switch on a circuit that worked fine for years. When I removed the old switch, I found 5...
