We had a problem at the house and I had to unfinish the basement. It's
now just block wall with some kind of paint on it. The electrical aspect is a mess. The service panel needs to be secured and nomex running to switches and outlets is hideous. Everything is just hanging down the wall. So, my question is, can I drill holes in the block or morter for concrete anchors to allow the securing of the panel, the mounting of raceways and new outlet boxes, etc. I found some nice blue concrete bolts (they call them anchors) but it's basically just an 1/8th inch diameter bolt that tightens into a drilled hole. No 1/4 inch hole for an anchor insert needed. Is it ok to put these holes in my block basement walls? TIA |
