May 22, 2019 at 2:04 | comment | added | Sagierian | As I already mentioned, the person that installed this did a bunch of things wrong. One thing they did wrong is they ran two separate 120v circuits through a 10/3 wire intended for a single 240v circuit, and used the same neutral. The insulation was stripped off the wires in the conduit, which is why the wires appear separate where they come in the box. I'm not going to try to fix this, as it works ok (and would be nearly impossible), but if something were to go wrong, I would just run entirely new wires to the circuits. Also, I'm planning on running two new circuits through the empty holes. | |
