The new electrical service..............


Work at the Old School continues.  Previous posts are here.  Today's episode highlights the installation of the new electrical service.   Each of the twenty-nine apartments will have its own electric meter (tenants will pay for their own electric usage, thank you), plus there will be a house meter (that will cover the power for the elevator, the laundry room, and all of the common area lighting).  Going from one meter to thirty is simple, but not easy.

The original electric service and panels, soon to be discarded


The blank slate
Building the new meter settings





It is a process
Connecting one meter setting at a time














On the other side of the wall from the meter settings, the
distribution system takes shape



Hopefully it all ends up in the right place
Electrical lines head for the individual units

Except what ends up in the house panel



This finished piece of the inside puzzle represents a lot of work

No longer a blank slate


There will be several more posts on the work by the electricians.
