Installation of a new 60 amp GE two pole breaker to supply power for the Heat pump customer is planning to install. Current wire is 6/2 romex leading to an exterior disconnect.

The reason for today’s visit with the customer was to provide a solution on installation of a HVAC Heat pump and powering it up.

We saw that there were mismatched breakers in the panel such as three 30 amp two pole HomeLine breakers and an Eaton BR 30 amp two pole breaker.

We then began our physical assessment on the switch connected to the light and noticed original rag wire but the rag wire and switch were both operating normally. We then disassembled the light fixture and we discovered the ballast had gone bad due to overheating resulting in the customer needing a replacement. We then presented the customer with three quotes. The first is an upgrade to a more expensive light fixture installation. The second was a replacement with a basic 6 inch light. The final quote is for the installation of a light fixture that she would provide herself. At this time she wishes not to move forward. However, if she finds a fixture she likes she will proceed to move fo
