We started electrical work on the garage started Friday morning.
But, first a few more before pictures.
The service panel in the basement. It has a good number of those dual breakers that have two circuits in one spot.
More garage wiring that isn't to code.
My wife took off Thursday actually and dug out a trench where the pvc pipe was run for the wiring to the garage. I felt bad for her, because it was raining most of the day too! What a gal, eh?
Friday morning my father in law began to take apart the service panel. SO many wires... I'm really glad he was there and knows what he is doing.
While he was busy doing the wiring inside the house, my wife, myself and my mother in law ripped out the wiring in the garage. After that was done, we started putting new recepticals, other needed boxes, and started wiring.
Here is how the recptical boxes were mounted to space them out for the mooney wall.
Checking back in with my father in law, he had the new backing board made and the new service panel was installed. He had already begun hooking the circuits back up.
Back out in the garage again, I mounted up the old service panel that was in the house. I chose to space it away from the wall to get more insulation behind it.
That about buttons it up for Friday's work. More to come, soon!
