Problem Reports (9)

PlatePerfect Fit

Electricians need a way to make a cover plate fit over a protruding outlet or box without notching the plate or moving the outlet.

Electrical2MildElectrician

Electrical installations lack upfront planning, resulting in conduit runs that are cramped and uncoordinated without proper box placement for clean connections.

Electrical3MediumElectrician

Inefficient EMT conduit bending and installation for residential electrical work, causing slow pace and difficulty in achieving proper fit and offsets.

Electrical3MediumElectrician

Electrical outlet box is offset from trim, making cover plate not sit flush and look ugly.

Electrical2MildElectrician

ConduitPlan Pro

Conduit runs are not planned properly, leading to misalignment with factory knockouts and requiring workarounds like using LBs or 4-square boxes to hide poor alignment.

Electrical2MildElectrician

ConduitEnd Reshaper

Couplings won't fit on 3-inch EMT conduit after bending due to deformation, forcing time-consuming manual filing and hammering.

Electrical4HighElectrician

RoofConduit Pro

Conduit is improperly installed on a roof without supports or gap, causing concern about potential damage.

Electrical2MildElectrical Worker

MultiTap Terminal Block Pro

An electrician needs to reconfigure electrical connections from a transformer to multiple panels but lacks safe and code-compliant terminal blocks or disconnects with double lugs for multiple conductors.
