I can hit the first skip button on the first screen but I can not skip the scrolling explosions of each line by clicking the skip button on right top corner when it shows up. When will this be fixed?
I am considering a 100 amp circuit although I am not planning to run anything substantial other than a 30 amp heater and few mundane electrical tools like a miter saw, drill press, planer etc not at the same time of course. Although, I want a 240V circuit, for a possible tool that might use it.
After paying north of $30K to this building, I am on a tight budget and trying to do this in the cheapest way possible. Therefore I am considering to go with a 1-1-1-3 Aluminum cable as seen here:
The running distance for this cable with all the turns is about 160-170 ft between the panel and the distribution panel I am planning to put in the new workshop.
As an additional information piece, I have a secondary panel which used to feed the old, small workshop we had. Thanks to a careless contractor, the wire is severed and quotes I got for digging and fixing the cable is much more than I want to spend on that dinky building. This panel used to feed 240V 50A to the old workshop as well as an old and now removed above ground pool. I will dedicate this panel to this new 100A circuit I am going to establish. I was told by a licensed electrician who came for a repair quote that, the panel is service connection 100 Amps.
My desire is to get a 200ft cut of this cable linked above for my needs. I will do the trench digging and conduit plus cable laying myself to cut the costs and hiring licensed electrician to do the panel connection and installation work.
For the record, I am in a semi rural area and do not have to get any permits from the city for digging and cable laying to be code compliant. I also know that, there are no other cables or pipes on the way that I need to dig the trench. Hence the self install of the cable.
Does my plan sound OK ? Or are there any pitfalls that you can see and I don't ?
We live in the Lone Star state, i.e., Texas.
I have avery stupid question which is buggong me for a while. Here it goes:
We have a house, nothing fancy or expensive but fully paid off and myself and my spouse have equal rights on it. The deed is on both our names. I have a car loan solely under my name. My spouses name is nowhere on the paperwork. Car has been totalled and I have been screwed royally by the insurance. Now, I owe the creditor close to $30K with no collateral, which we are paying off slowly. We are currently down to 1 car in the family which is my spouse's, purchased before we got married and the title is solely under her name.
In an unlikely event that something happens to me and I pass away, with $30k (currently unsecured) debt under my name, what happens to that debt. Can the creditor force the sale of our family home (which is our only tangible common asset) to pay the debt back, ending up pushing my spouse out to the street, proverbially speaking? We have no cash, stocks or 401Ks or anything like that. We are both retired on a fixed income, which is enough to live by but no room for savings whatsoever. We have no wills or any other legal papers other than a marriage certificate, showing we are legally hitched to one another.
