I just replaced a light fixture in an apartment complex.I discovered that the bonehead that did the install did not run an equiptment ground when he installed the entire circuit that the light is ran off of (dumb a**!!!!!!!!)Does anyone know if it would be up to code if I where to just drive an 8 ft. ground rod and ground the fixture/entire circuit off of the rod?I have looked everywhere.Cannot find anything in code books.If someone knows where this is in NEC, please include the location.Anybody have any input?
It is not whether 80 ft, 8 ft 0r 1 ft., it is the conductivity of the ground that is at issue. Of course, generally but not necessarily true that the deeper the ground rod penetrates, the better. I suggest you get someone who knows to check your grounding system before you become a bonehead yourself.
I have to declare a major in my schools engineering program at the end of this semester, and I was wondering what type of working enviroments I would probably be in with either major and a bachelors/masters degree? What are the jobs like in each major? Desk/factory/lab etc? I know there are lots of options in each program, but what are most of the jobs in each respective industry like? Thanks!
There are more USA jobs in electrical engineering than chemical engineers (see the source below) which may explain why I don't see that many chemical engineers. The few people I know who where chemist or chemical engineer moved into others fields. The one exception was a friend in college that I loss touch. Last I heard he working in production. All the EE that I know work in desk or lab work with occasional developmental testing of equipment in the field.
I live in Houston texas and am planning on getting a degree in either electrical or mechanical engineering. What do they both involve? Which is better pay and more job offering?
Job outlook is the same. Salary. In most cases, electrical engineers get paid a little more ($3000-5000 more per year on average). But it is not always the case. It depends on industry, location, job hazards, job title, job responsibilities, education, and experience. For both majors, the starting salary range is $45,000-60,000 per year. After 5 years of experience, the ranges are around $63,000-73,000. After 20+ years of experience, the salary for both would be around $88,000-98,000 average. Mechanical engineers solve problems related to mechanical issues whether it is quality, reliability, maintainability related or HVAC and plumbing related, or if it is related to designing a mechanical component with strict tolerances. For example, my mechanical engineering friend is working on this hugs project. His company is developing just one of the gears that will go in future Subaru transmissions. He has to design that single gear to strict tolerances to withstand extreme pressures, speeds, and temperatures. Electrical engineers solve problems related to electrical systems. They design electrical systems for buildings and equipment, conduct electrical surveying, quality inspect circuit boards and other electrical parts. They design or improve electrical components as well.

use a non contact heat detector. fluke and many others make units that can sense the IR radiation at the terminal and determine the temperature from it.
Conduct regular maintenance tests for the electrical equipment.The following actions should be taken to reduce the probability of potential electrical deficiencies at this facility.The Hazard
potential electrical deficiencies means the possibility that this facility will not work due to electrical problems in other words, future problems caused by lack of maintenance on the electrical equipment. Therefore, the sentence could be rephrased as follows: The following actions should be taken to to make sure all the electrical equipment stays in good working order.
I'm currently doing a 3 year advanced diploma for electronics engineering program. However, I don't feel it could really lead to much possibilities. What do people think?Are there any electronics engineers here in the room?? If so, what challenges do you face??
It's pretty booming right now, and probably will be for the next couple of decades at least. As far as possibilities go, what are you looking for? Some EE's start their own companies and make millions. It's as much as what you make of things as it is about hopping on the right train to take you where you want to go. The downside of engineering has to be the pressure and the deadlines. Marketing and money drive engineering. And the market doesn't want to wait forever for the next gismo. Your design has to be finished by a certain time or else the whole bridge project gets held up, etc.
For a treadmill.I could get a manual for reallly cheap but I had my heart set on an electrical one.I've never really used a manual oneWhat do you think?
Get the Electrical one you will like it more.
HI I need to know if anyone knows the MN electrical code for how many can lights I am allowed on one circuit using 14-2 with 15amp. also I would like to put some in my soffit outside, any type of can required for this? Thanks.
The number is eight.and this is it
