I swear, there must be a vow that all licensed electricians take before
setting out to work on their own. I believe it could be summed up thus: XXXIV. Thou shalt never affix identifying labels to any household breaker panels. What is it with these guys? Yesterday I saw a new client, looked at their panel in the garage to try to figure out which one the back-porch light was on, and, sure 'nuf, not a SINGLE MARKING anywhere to disturb the pristine beauty of the blank box. I guess it just isn't macho enough to actually let the poor ******* who owns the house know which breaker goes where. (On the other hand, another client is the ultimate counter-example: both of their breaker boxes have envelopes taped to their doors, inside of which is a complete list of breakers and devices on each. But I suspect that's because one of their sons did a lot of remodeling work for their parents.) -- The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter. - Attributed to Winston Churchill |
