Thank you for sharing.

You’re welcome. I think 1/2” PVC pipe has a 7/8” OD. However, please double check.

Thank you for posting.

Yes, it also works with PVC pipe. Just have to make sure the OD of the pipe works with the ID of the Red Disc. The RDS-C fits a pipe with 5/8” OD and RDS-G fits a pipe with 7/8” OD. Hope this helps.

Yes I will do that .....

It depends. The ones I have dealt with the neutral tab should NOT to be broken. If it is broken, the outlet or outlets downstream will lose their natural. This is because, in this case, the neutral is pigtailed. Hope this helps.

It is difficult to say which wire you have to remove. However, if you follow each step in this video, your three way switches will work correctly. Here’s another video that I have that explains how it works in a classroom style: 3-Way electrical switch, how does it work? th-cam.com/video/cCcOydFhI_0/w-d-xo.html

Thank you for the post. However, it is not a violation in our city.

I wouldn’t say that. Split outlets are not very common these days and this is an easy mistake to make.

I would start by replacing the cartridge.

Thank you for the post. Definitely an option when both hots are coming from the same phase.

To split current loads. Hope that helps.

Usually a 240v application on a 1 phase system. Your plug needs to be rated for it though.

Thank you for sharing.

Correct, if each wire comes from a different breaker, A and B. I’ve seen it wired both ways. When both wires are from the same breaker or phase, you’ll not notice if the tab is not broken. However, if the wires are from two different phases, you’ll notice it quickly, breakers trip.

Thank you for sharing.

Roger that. The longer version shows how to break the tab, as noted in the video’s description. Hope this helps. Do not make this mistake, why a switched outlet is ON all the time, how to correctly wire it. Longer th-cam.com/video/E4vh9y1hm2g/w-d-xo.html

You can definitely do that. Back in the 70’s and 80’s the split outlet was common in living rooms where there was not ceiling light. This method of wiring allowed for having a lamp to be plugged into the switched outlet that was controlled by a wall switch near the entry and TV plugged into the other outlet. Very common, but forgotten over the years.

No thanks. Repair instead of replace, reduce waste.

Thank you for that tip.

Great tip. Thank you for sharing.

Good question. The heating elements are 220-240v. So when you measure across the heating element terminals you should read 220-240 v. That’s why you do not see a ground going to the heating element terminals. The ground from the breaker panel connects to the ground of the WH, grounding the case. Hope this helps.

@@JustForYouDiy so if you lose one of the 110vts the element just doesn't get as hot? I should only have readings on the element wires when it is called for heating it up? Both should be 0 when off and each 110vt when on? Thanks again, followed everything else. I'm actually trying to trouble shoot an issue with a automotive parts washer that has two elements in it.

I've always switched the bottom outlet as the lamp plug is there to stay, leaving the top outlet available to the possibility of being used by a temporary device .

Switched receptacles became a fad in the 50s, but started falling out of favor by the late 80s. They were also a favorite for cheap builders because they can eliminate a light fixture.

This mistake, not cutting the tab for a split outlet happens often. Very easy mistake to make since default for outlet out of the box is tab installed. Common application for split outlet are: Living room without a ceiling light, garbage disposal, etc.

Garbage!!

Disagree. They work and look great.
