"Whats wrong with plastic boxes..both the gray type and the Carlon
type?"
For starters when plastic boxes crack you have to remove the sheet rock around them to replace them. Metal boxes don't crack like plastic ones do.. If you strip the thread in a metal box you can retread it without having to remove it. If you are in it for the long run plastic boxes aren't the way to go.
I seriously doubt Mark Wieber is capable of doing any kind of quality work.
Clearly absolutely NO BODY on this particular thread is a licensed electrician. Then again, I guess no one claimed it.
Actually..I was a licensed electrician here in California for over a
decade. C-7/C10
Rodents can chew through everything. Even metal. So plastic that was fitted with the fried chicken greasy hands he just finished using from lunchtime will attract rodents after finished work who can motor through it.
Yes they can. Assuming one has rodents. Given most of So California
has few rats (more possems than anything else)..its not a
concern..particularly in industrial areas where bait boxes are placed
in every..every industrial complex..to make sure rats are are indeed
kept rare. It also works nicely on other rodents such as mice,
gophers, etc etc.
Rodents hurt their gums when they try to chew through sheet metal studs and pot metal couplings, end caps, connectors, boxes, etc.
And yes, everything should be grounded. That reduces a person own potential to be hit with electrocution of 5 millivolts or more. The less use of non-metallic non-conductor, the better.
Unless one runs a ground wire and attaches it properly to each device
in needed applications.
California CODE states that in industrial premises...Carlon type
conduit OR metallic conduit IS required in wooden walls. Given that
it also requires 1/2'- 5/8" sheet rock be added to both sides of an
external wall...covering said conduit..and given that said conduit
would be required to run long spans through wall studs...Carlon or
similar is the obvious choice. As witnessed by a smiling approval of
the building inspector and the proper documents so stated.
"Nice job!"
Was there any other questions?
Ill leave the Banquer commentary alone..with a big knowing grin and a
song in my heart..knowing the poor dumb ******* still cant find a
job..in an industry he has hovered around for 2+ decades.

I'm not looking for work and I'm constantly offered work/jobs.
Mark Wieber is far too lazy and far too stupid to view my open LinkedIn group, CADCAM Technology Leaders, to see what happens when I am offered work/jobs.
