    When people grow up around that type of electrical environment, they don;t know any better. 26 years in the electrical trade and this statement is still true
    I’VE NEVER SEEN A HOUSE BURN DOWN FROM A BAD PAINT JOB !
    Please if a home owner stick to non hazardous type repairs. and leave electrical work to the certified/state licensed electricians. we have electrical fire every 38 seconds & 53% of electrical fires are caused by the home owners. don’t make your home less safe for your family !

    that makes no sense. if your getting 220-240 at 2phase then what are you getting if you measure across the 2 phases? How do you get 408 in a 3 phase when your just getting 220 between each phase. you should be getting 408-410 between each phase and 110 between each phase and neutral. correct me if im wrong
