Municipalities Do It Best

I thought I should share this. I have made a number of posts lately regarding unsafe wiring. This is NOT home owner wiring. I was digging through some photos and, again, this is a photo I took near Cancun, Mexico. This is wiring in a public park. Seriously, this is a panel in a municipal park. And, to make it sillier, I did not have to open the cover to get the shot -- it has no cover. Is it dead? Is it vacated? I think not, as a few wires came out the top and seemed to be routed to some lights. I did not have my inspection tools along to test it, as I was on vacation, but it was quite the sight to behold.

Thanks for hanging in there.

OK Steven, just the fact that you decided to take a photo of this is bad enough, but to actually test it if you'd have had a tool is just too much!! LOL I say this as I'm packing my cell and laptop for my own vacation. Thank goodness we have regulations here, though. Wow!

Andrew,

Yeah, planning an Italy vacation to begin in a couple weeks. Figuring out how to maintain my business, keep a handle on AR and also the Bellingham Tech College program which has a class starting a couple weeks after I return. I always end up bringing photos back from Italy that I use in the class or here. Some of them make good points.
