manleyhouseWell, MG&E canceled on us this morning due to the rain and other outages that take priority, so I'm scheduled for Wednesday morning at 8am, hopefully I can be in to work by noon.
So, instead of doing the house hookup we continued work on the garage wiring. Pictures are in the gallery, many need to be rotated but the rotate feature seems to be broken. I might re-upload them after editing sometime, just tilt your head to the right for most of them for now.
The trench and PVC is done and the wires have been pulled. The garage panel has been replaced and re-connected and the new air-compressor and welder outlets have been added. When the inspector stopped by today he said the trench looked good and could be back-filled (might do that tomorrow after work). He also said that what we had so far and what we had ready looked good, we just needed to tweak some of the grounding which we have since done.
Tomorrow I'll try and fill in the trench and cleanup some in the garage.
Wednesday after the service is disconnected (at the pole and the meter pulled) we have to (hopefully the isolated thunderstorms are isolated somewhere else):

- remove and replace the wire from the meter and connect to the new main panel
- run the wires and conduit from the new panel to the disconnect in the basement
- separate the ground and neutral in the basement disconnect (remove jumper connector?)
- have the whole shebang inspected
- have MG&E plug the meter back in and restore service so the house has power again
