Messy electrical I found on the internet.

I sure hope those are temp feeds.

But why? It's just electrical. Go cheap, that's what I say. How do you say "I don't need no stinking staple", in Spanish?

The service wires don't look so good.

Yeah forget the staples, in fact, lets forget the darn jacket. I mean, its only a little 75c sheath, nothing more. Have you seen how cheap them single wires are, just buy one big roll of 1000ft black wire your set:laughing:

I was in a cave and they wired the wet cave with extension cords and single rolls of wire, I did not want to touch any railing on the steps


If you are reading this, good for you!

It's just that where I'm from, if it's new residential, it is almost a certainty that someone from Central America did the job, and many look similar, though not usually as bad, as the pics above.

Just busting your chops. I always say you get what you pay for. I could never figure out why people decide to do some parts of a job right and do not care about the other parts. The way I see it, if EVERYTHING is not done right then EVERYTHING is wrong. I would of probably thought that was a great job before learning what I have learned here I must admit.

Panels are ugly.

Staples are over rated.

I don't see an issue with "bundling". This is just a crapload of circuits. It's not like they will be all pulling 20 amps all the time.

I would sure as hell put some nail plates on top/bottom plates, even if it wasn't required.

Yeah, bundling in a resi install is not a big deal.

If the wiring was exposed they should use more staples.

Monk wired that, right ? :laughing:

I've seen those before, pretty clean. I would just run big pipe though. Thats just me.

Here is the flip side. An outstanding job, done in a 2 million+ single family residence.

I forget the name, but the guy who did that job posts pretty frequently on one of the professional forums. It is very nice work, indeed. I just wish it were in pipe.
