    Wom, I've worked on systems that were wired by that electrician.

    One conveyor system I had to work on had a wire trough with several hundred wires in the trough.............all red wires, with no numbers on the wires in the trough.

    Another system set up by the same electrician had wires that changed colors several times through the runs...............seems he got a deal on some short spools.

    LOL,

    That's a huge problem in South America.

    People climb the poles to steal the power- they put up their own lines that lead to their homes.

    They just hook the wires over the power lines and voila! Free energy.

    You should have seen the wiring jobs insides those homes!

    Man, they'd never get away with that here........they'd get hanged !!!!
    We had an electrician die here some years ago, when he went into a roof space to do some wiring. Seems that he knelt on two three inch nails that had been driven thru an electrical cable and then connected with wires to a new power point by the previous owner.
