We are privileged to be able to take care of and help several restaurants in the Treasure Valley.
We had a call today from one saying that an outlet was a little wobbly and the cord was sitting weird.
We found that the cord had been pushed in so hard, more than a couple times. They had bent the yoke on the outlet making it sit inside the box past the mud ring, therefore making it wobbly and sit weird. It's a good thing, for them, that the Electrician that put the outlet in had taped over the set screws. That's not code, it's just a practiced standard. They also wanted to put in "kid proof" outlet plugs to keep the grease out better. I can see metal covers with gaskets coming in the future, they didn't want to spend the money yet. They were thankful for the easy fix.

We had a fun one this afternoon with some crazy voltage output on the line side of an AC disconnect, 55V to ground on each leg and 239V phase to phase. Nothing visibly marked in any of the 4 panels throughout the house... no main breaker panel, just 4 sub panels with a main breaker disconnects in the garage. After tripping the breaker, finding the breaker, and found out what the wire looked like. Aluminum 10/2 from the panel, spliced in to 12/2 copper going to the disconnect, ALL on a 2 pole 50A breaker... no dielectric grease on the splices. Note the free air splice. It was only a matter of time before the corrosion took over... oh and a little heat from the arcing wires in the wire nut.
The feeder wire came in over head, from a pole in the neighbors yard, and in to the gutter. 4 line side taps in to each "main breaker", which then fed panels through the house.

We had the opportunity to help a family this last Friday. She had prepped for these lights quite a while ago during their kitchen remodel, but never had them done.
There's before and after pics of the kitchen during the day when we put them in, and pics she took that evening.
We think they turned out amazing. They are a 4000k strip and have a 100w dimmer/driver combo.
If you've ever wanted under cabinet lighting let us know, we install them quite often and they WILL change the look of your kitchen.
