Is this how they do it in Florida too?

I believe they do it like that in Florida as well.

Let’s change up the wording a bit to keep things interesting, but still convey the same message.

Getting inducted into the electrical hall of fame, that’s awesome bro! 🔥🔥🔥😂😂

I’m loving it

I’m not a huge fan, but I don’t hate it either.

I’m not a fan of multi-family units, but that’s the way it’s done. Codes are pretty lenient on them, so no one worries about bundling or heat. I’m concerned that some wooden structures might burn down due to tight chases filled with SER cables on some of the projects I’ve worked on.
That’s quite a big word…
I think they’re in flex, right? Or is that MC cable? Either way, the heat shouldn’t be an issue since the conductors are in a raceway. It really depends on how many conductors are in each raceway.
If this is MC cable, then it’s all about cutting costs. Using MC cable is more cost-effective in terms of both labor and materials.
Hey, could it be an exception to bundle AC cable? I’ve noticed this in a bunch of multi family units with metal framing on the 1st floor. Inspectors usually don’t ask for it to be separated due to limited space in the ceilings.
Induction is going to be super important, or a massive electromagnet
Weighty
IBEW doing great work as always
Boring
Hey, why
Feeling sick ðŸ˜
Decreased!
This is the way they wire multi-unit/apartment buildings here in Massachusetts as well
I know how to do flex, but not in this way. I hope the cord doesn’t get tangled. We would connect that. Looks fantastic though.
It’s probably MC cable and not FMC,
No way!!!!!
This is cable in conduit. It’s kind of a necessary evil because we’re short on skilled labor and have a tight schedule for the job.
114 in a single stack? That’s impressive!
Scale down
What about inductive reactance? Can we mention that?
Seems like it would be difficult to pull….
There’s quite a bit of weight sitting there.
Maybe not as heavy as you think. Aluminum feeder and aluminum jacket.
Have they been introduced to the concept of cable trays?
Courageous
Wow, she’s really flexible.
That’s really impressive how neatly those MC cables are organized. Have you thought about piping it instead? Did it take you a long time to do that?
Looking for flex?
I doubt that it’s suitable for new construction. Even with a powerful tugger and sturdy anchors, greenfield tends to get stuck during longer pulls. My money is on it being MC cable.
Whoa, I’ve never come across MC that huge. Is this how it’s usually used?
Hey, I was just chatting with my supplier and it seems like feeders are really catching on now.
Wow, that’s fascinating. I suppose labor costs for piping are becoming too expensive.
Riley O’rady I’ve worked with 250mcm MC cable which can be used for various purposes. Just need to be cautious with schools, healthcare facilities, and government buildings as I haven’t come across larger MCs besides Armor light.
Riley O’rady It all depends on the customer; warehouses usually use MC, but buildings for manufacturing or industrial processes are typically hard piped for easier future expansion or modifications.
Sounds like me… struggling to bend pipe unless it’s for an offset or a 90 lmmfao
It’s not that difficult, just requires some practice. Start with a manual bender and then upgrade to an old-fashioned 555 greenlee as the 855X series makes it less enjoyable.
Precisely
I’ve even used the reenlee for up to 4″ EMT haha
Seems pretty big like greenfield
Riley O’rady, the pipe is actually the easiest part! It took way too long to feed the wire through this flex.
That’s way too close, it will produce excessive heat!!!
Voltage induced.
Bundling those together like that could really generate some heat.
🤢🤮
Haha, yeah we pull off this kind of thing in Florida 😂
Simple
This is too painful for me, too much flexing.
It’s unfortunate that this is the truth.
