Amateur wiring?

The Realtor asked me why I thought the garage sub-panel was wired by a amateur.

And what did you say :smiley:

Let’s see where do we begin…

So do they have the black as neutral on the other end of circuit as well… or are receptacles wired in reverse. There is not a single wire in there done properly.

No, it was done by Ray Charles between gigs:mrgreen:

The list was long. The panel was dead. No power to it. The wires coming from the house to the garage were only 7 ft of the ground. The panel in the home had no breaker marked garage. So I think they just taped into a branch circuit to get the power. Never found the source. Deferred to a electrician.

Lots of code violations for sure, and black as a neutral is a big one.
