    That's a lot of money in valves sitting around in that picture. Especially since the price tends to skyrocket on ball valves once you get above 24", IIRC. But I know where you're at, and that entire area is pipeline/valve central so it makes sense.

    I'm guessing it's only DIV2 since normally they shouldn't see any hexane vent, but they really did treat it as if it was DIV1. But this plant is also a fucking accident MAGNET, so I get it. In the last couple of years they've had explosions, fires, random stupid contractor accidents, etc...

    /morning coffee ramble I was at one of the larger food processing plants in the US a few weeks back. Had to swap out some equipment controls and needed to work 4x12s with three people to get it done quickly enough. It wasn't really in my 'wheelhouse' per se (I used to work on a motor driven...

    Nevergrind Online - 5-player Multiplayer Co-op Dungeon Crawl RPG on Steam

    I'll buy the game in a bit, once I'm done reading the game reviews and handing out awards to forum bros. I can't remember what was really up with the Wintermute shit (Alt? Disgruntled Bot? Or just a placeholder for forum thread OP's?) but I bet @Lightning Lord Rule knows! :millie: Comment made...

    I've been on that side of things, so I understand what is going on. If a contractor is booked solid, why would they pull a guy off a scheduled/active job to go to your house for free? They could have just told you they were booked and hung up, but at least they're giving you the option. If a...

    Lumi's Batshit Insane Thread

    If Lumi dies from some sort of preventable dental infection, then I won't feel the least bit guilty about mocking him posthumously after all of the ultra-cringe dirtbag mocking he aimed at forum members who lost loved ones to cancer.

    You're in Texas, right? No idea how the individual circuits are run, or how old it all is. Top of the contacts almost seemed like they're phased for 3-phase (brown, purple, yellow?), but I'm not familiar with BPY. BOY would make sense to me, instead. I'm honestly not sure if I've ever seen BPY...

    Lighting contactor, or something else? What was his plan with finding what was shorted? Disconnecting loads and then energizing to see what holds? Looks like 14, 18 & 22 may have been disconnected and capped off. This makes me want to ask a lot of questions, LOL
