I'm glad I get to share this one with you all.
In the effort of transparency: I do not yet have my electrical license (I have completed the required on-job hours, as well as a four-year nationally accredited program through NCCER at SCC).I am currently working towards finding someone who will sign off to let me take the test in Raleigh to get my NC electrical license.
For this particular project, I am helping as a friend. I have not been hired in any official way since I lack licensing credentials. The homeowner is acting as GC on the permit.
Okay, now that's out of the way, lol, I can get to the project scope. 150' underground electrical run to get power from the house main panel to the new 'tiny home' in the backyard. I know we live in the Sandhills so digging isn't horrible, but 150' at 18" deep warranted a ditch witch rental in my opinion lol. The trench was dug, inspected, and approved. The conduit was laid out, the wires were pulled, ground rods were installed at the structure, and again, inspected and approved.
That's where I am currently on this larger (for me) electrical project. I'll update as things move along. Thanks for checking it out!
