Electrician had "really shaky hands" and I was nervous watching him attach my $144 Oyaide R1 AC Receptacle.LOL, can you imagine what was going through his mind...
What kind of a nut would spend $144 bucks for a receptacle. He probably was thinking if I scratch this damn thing this guy is going to want me to buy him a new one...... LOL....
I am surprised the electrician, when learning you invested $144 in the receptacle, did not try to talk you into installing a new dedicated 20 amp branch circuit line all the way back to the electrical panel. Labor cost may not have been that much more than all that fishing that went on.
His helper got electrocuted when trying to grab the fishing wire thru the cutout in the wall of the old outlet. On several occasions I offered to switch the breaker off because he was just charging ahead with live wires.Well not quite electrocuted, but shocked..... Stupidity on their part. The circuit should have been turned off. There was no reason to work it hot. In fact working it hot may have added time to the job.
