I like playing with just 110-220. Still work on the buddy system and a believer in the one hand method working on a live circuit. Ya have not lived until ya play with 100-200KV coupled with RF. It has a way of reaching out and touching you. Still have a mark.
I will agree that if your going to pull the main to go in and tighten up stuff. I had many that were not secure after 30 years. I also since I was replacing a couple of breakers swapped a bunch out. they were cheap. I also got rid of the aluminum wiring that I had (220 only thank god) Good luck in your quest.[Flower]
So vossman, are you still among the living ? What did you find ? Hopefully you took pictures to post up.
110 only tingles.
I am off shift on Tue so i will do it then. I will take pics.Quote:

Top one is the light switch, you can see the broken piece and the arc burn on the plastic and metal. The bottom piece is the outlet that is cracked and where the wire was inserted was broken off.
So not sure if its actually fixed but we'll see. Thanks for the help guys.

It also looks like the plug needs a haircut....
If you want a surprise have a good hold of a bare telephone wire as someone calls into the house.. :O I work on LV systems and the old phone ringing gets me worse than any 110 ever has.Quote:
