Master Electrician stuck in the body of an Electrical Inspector.
@wdlindsy Looks like we are entering into a phase that reminds more of Stasi or Gestapo, rather than doing it out in the open. A stark reminder how the system of oppression adapts to public backlash.
@ironicbadger It grinds my gears so much that they say 325 x 325 x 325 mm3 on the bed. Solve the equation, it's a lie! Units of measurement are part of the equation.
@ironicbadger They were probably not thinking of frozen water on the ground when they saw the sign. You gotta love the standard issue delivery driver footwear as well.
@ironicbadger The batteries, inverter, charge controller etc. are not the big issue. Like you mentioned, the brains is the issue. And it can get very interesting, very quickly with the power company, inspection and UL listing requirements, etc. The building industry is, like most others, securely in the fangs of big tech, but there are initiatives. Don't give up on this and please keep sharing!

An interesting scenario I have not seen before:

This Electrician needs a nailplate on their steel studs. Because they had an obstruction, they drilled their own holes in the steel stud, instead of using the premade holes. Besides structural concerns of field-drilling steel studs (see manufacturer instructions), I did readily find a suitable solution:
