I'm licensed out here in AZ, and had lunch at an Irish pub in Scottsdale.

Owner started talking and wanted a quote to connect the 2 buildings via fiber. He mentioned that conduit already exists and would love to walk me through everything after lunch.

Conduit starts inside the kitchen and goes outside, to electrical panel, and and the bottom of the panel is more conduits to pass through to the other building.

Owner is dead set on wanting it ran though the panel but what is the n.e.c code on this so I can just run him a new conduit. Gab between the 2 buildings is like 10ft, overall fiber runs would be less than 80'.

Just to clarify I'm not running it in the panel. Just seeing if you know the nec code off hand to show him and do a conduit.

Just rented a car for the wife in Florida. I just noticed that I would have to be present to pick up the car (I will not be in Florida). If I give my wife my driver's license, and she is a listed driver would it be an issue? Or will i have to make an account for her specifically?

This is only my second turo rental and my first was about 3 years ago for context.

Any of you have any weird attachments or bits for your drills?

For example, I have a cable puller attachment for my drill. Both are greenlee products. But on straight pulls i can pull cable 140' in a minute, just have to setup correctly.

Then I have slotted bits for bridal rings

Just about to sign a contract for a hotel in AZ. It's weird how it worked out. Original bidder did a quote for labor and materials but wasn't licensed in AZ. GC reached out to me about doing labor so other company can still purchase materials.

They sent me a list and it's an Amazon special. Cat6 cable is monk brand, and monk keystones. Any of you guys ever run a certification with this type of cable, and anything to watch out for?

I have completed an install and all signals have been received except 1.

This is point 71 (though not 71 points just the numbering convention by designer)

Issue is that the alarm system at the store sees the alarm, faults the alarm when door is open and alarm goes off as well. When call the monitoring station they see no activity on point 71.

Steps I have taken:

Verified S/N number

Verified it is set for exterior (roll up door)

Verified wiring at terminals

Old sensor removed from programming and new sensor installed

All 3 steps above for new sensor

Physically removed sensor with station on phone and bridged the terminals

Station sees 71

Remove bridge

Station reads it as door open

Install bridge

Station reads as door closed

Remove cover

Station reads it as fault

Arm alarm and fault 71

Alarm at store registered door open and alarm go off

Station has no record of 71 going off

Dmp will not provide support since alarm is not in service

Station keeps pointing me to dmp

Station received all info except for alarms

Any suggestions? Or a known amount of wireless sensors that can be handled by 1 system.

Wireless translator has been installed and moved to 20ft of the sensor and still same issues.

Edit:

Total 28 wireless sensors according to the map.

I didn't read the sow totally. But one of those jobs where some Indian dude in the UK wants to keep you on teams the entire time.

My fusion splicer broke, not a problem going to the truck to get my unicams (job did not state fusion or mechanical. Dude in the phone wanted to know why I wasn't fusing the fiber. I said it wasn't in the sow how it got completed. (430pm literally in the middle of nowhere. Dude from India calls, go borrow a fusion splicer, go rent a fusion splicer, go to the store and get the broken parts.

I said no it's after hours no place will have anything, can you borrow, can you repair, can you......

The kicker the fiber was the main part but had to run cat6 in a trailer. Total time 2 days was 17hours, and 180 bucks in travel for the 2 days.

For those that asked, Corning unicam, fujikura90s, no certificant on fiber or cat 6. But did a switch test with fluke link iq

Hello all,

I have lived in Maricopa since 05. I founded my business here and thought i would try and reach some of you fellow maricopians.

I have a customer that needs fiber pulled into the mdf from the telco closet. Currently the do not have anymore sfp slots and are wanting to convert to cat6 for the connection. Any ideas on products?

I was thinking a media converters but only used them starting as ethernet, but I did see a product that looks cheap as hell but does fiber to ethernet.

You guys got any suggestions?
