LOL, you keep digging.
You’re backfeeding a dryer receptacle which is meant to provide power to a dryer not for providing power to the house from a generator or some other power source (violation 1), from a male plug potentially exposing people to live parts(violation 2). You’re backfeeding into a panel where more than likely the breaker hasn’t been installed correctly with a retainer screw or clip for backfeeding (violation 3), most likely the breaker isn’t even rated for backfeeding (violation 4). There’s a good chance that if your installation is twenty plus years old the breaker fails for mechanical reasons and there’s a 50 / 50 chance the breaker installed isn’t listed for the panel it’s in.
When the insurance company refuses to pay off your fire claim for $100,000, $200.000 0r $500,000+ just remember you saved $1,000 by doing it yourself.
Some of my favorite sayings from potential customers:
“I’m an EE, I know things”
“The kid at Home Depot said”
“The other electrician said he could do it for......”
“What do I need smoke detectors for, I’ve never had a fire”
“I have all the parts and just need you to do the work in the box”
LOL, keep going champ !
Scare tactics. F U pal.
