Never Bury Electrical Cable

Never Bury Electrical Cable. Not even the type intended for that purpose such as UF cable. The soil is dirty, and you will end up getting dirty power going to the building served by this cable. Dirty power is destructive to electronics and other devices.

Always hang wires in the clean fresh air and you will always have clean and fresh power.

...and don't forget to hang them so the electricity runs downhill.

You don't know how many times I've see a power cable run from a pole, up to the roof of a home. The folks complain that the lights flicker. What do they expect, having to push the power up the cable. Would have been much better to mount it to the house between the first and second floors!

Nonsense. If you put those kid protector plugs in empty outlets, it improves the pressure in the whole system by preventing dripping of unused electricity. Then, it doesn't matter if the outside wire runs up or downhill.

It's not really a concern. I have an "uninteruptable power supply" that provides clean power.

Yes, but you failed to mention that you would need to check for the rated pressure that the line to the house can handle.

Like a pressure washer if the line is not rated to handle that much pressure guess what??? You have water all over the place and a wild hose trying to slap you silly.

Now just think what would happen if your incoming power line did that.

You know how some people are they would try to pick up (steal) some free power laying all over the street and when they get slapped silly by the line flying around they will want to sue you.......

JMHO...

Hmmm, You didn't know? B4 you bury the cable you have to check the Ph of the soil and sanitize it, LOL!

Yep. It's a great "fixer-upper" if the price is right...

Nonsense. It's the other way around. What we call electricity is really dark suckers and dark is heavier than light. Therefore is runs down the wires much easier.

"Dark has mass. When dark goes into a dark sucker, friction from the mass generates heat. Thus, it is not wise to touch an operating dark sucker (depending on its power). Candles present a special problem as the mass must travel into a solid wick instead of through clear glass. This generates a great amount of heat and therefore it is unwise to touch an operating candle."

Dark is heavier than light. If you were to swim just below the surface of the lake, you would see a lot of light. If you were to slowly swim deeper and deeper, you would notice it getting darker and darker. When you get really deep, you would be in total darkness. This is because the heavier dark sinks to the bottom of the lake and the lighter light floats at the top. The is why it is called light.

I actually saw that happen this summer. It was on a high voltage line, and that escaping power really made a lot of noise. I think about what might have happened if I was walking on the wrong side of the street.

Sanitize your brain too, so it doesn't pick up any defective electrons And watch out for the dreaded allpox :-)

Another great suggestion but probably will not help at my house. My electricity can't make up it's mind. It changes directions about 60 thousand times a second.

Umm... Hertz, not KiloHertz. 60 cycles per second.

120 times per second.

Make that 120.
