    Electrical Service

    Have very old meter coming into my cottage. I need to replace the meter. There are many meters at Home Depot. How do I choose the right meter and meter pan? I have a 240 Vrms service @ 100amperes. Thank you. Fred

    Kewtec KT77

    Not used my Kewtec KT77 since it was recertified in January. Switched on on Wednesday to be told it needed a service! How do I reset? If I leave it on it clears in 30 minutes. If I switch off and switch on it starts with no problems. Robert

    As above, This is a vacant premises where the supplier is charging monthly even though no electricity is needed. They are refusing to cancel the supply. Is there a requirement to maintain a supplier on a connection, even if it's not in use? Many Thanks all

    Can't setup generator in close proximity to service panel.

    How many feet can 10-gauge Romex run (inlet box to service panel) and still properly support 30-amp inverter generator? Do I also take into account the 25-ft of 30-amp wire (3-pronged locking) that connects the generator to the inlet box?

    Parts for vintage service station lights..

    I have some vintage service station lights similar to the attached photo. However, they don't have any sockets, nor anyway to connect them to the conduit. I've been unable to locate these parts.

    Under ground service to weather head or service head.

    What is common practice when hooking Armoured cable to a weather head. Do I need a aluminum weather head or is a threaded PVC one ok? Do I use a weather head with threads so my teck connector can screw straight in.....do I need ground bushings at both ends? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks,
