Yes, as long as the splice is made in a junction box that can have a cover attached to it and it must be accessable. This means its not to be covered with drywall. The wire must also be of the correct size and conductor count. For a dryer it is a 3 conductor #10 wire. The breaker size at the breaker panel is a two pole 30 amp.
What else can I help you with?
Add new gfci from an existing switch?
Find the Hot side of the switch (Where there is voltage regardless of position of toggle on switch). Tie in new Black wire to GFCI. On wire nut with white wire tie in new white wire to GFCI. Do the same for the bare ground wire, if there is one.
Is it possible to put a 4-prong plug on a dryer that uses a 3-prong plug and how would you do this?
If you are viweing this because you want to change the newer 4-prong plug/outlet to fit an older 3 prong outlet/plug don't do it! The newer plug is safer and the 3 prong plug no longer meets code. See the discussions in other threads. all you need to do is hook the two hot leads on the outer terminals, then the nueatral, white wire on the center terminal and the green ground wire to the ground screw. Be sure to remove the bonding jumper that ties the neutral to the chassis. This is no longer needed as now you have a ground line from the outlet. There should be 3 insulated lugs in the dryer, two hots and a neutral. Connect the red and black wires in your new cord to the hot lugs (red & black are interchangeable), and the white neutral to the neutral lug. Neutral is the center wire on your older 3-wire cord, for reference. Connect the green ground wire directly to the chassis of the sryer using a convienent screw. Use the four prong cord if you can. It is safer because it has the extra ground wire which older cords did not.
How do you tie barb wire together?
To tie two ends of barbed wire together, you can use a piece of baling wire or strong metal ties. Make sure the wires overlap each other before twisting the baling wire tightly around both strands to secure them together. Additionally, crimping sleeves can also be used to connect barbed wire strands effectively.
How many times does tie wire need to be twisted needed when tying rebar?
Depends on your code and specifications. Check project specs to see what they are referencing as proper installation procedure practices. Than reference those.
If you plugged in a new electric dryer into a 240V power outlet and nothing happened is it likely you have blown a fuse?
Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz supply service.First of all, it's 240 Volts, not 220. Even though everybody you know calls it "220", it's really 240 Volts you need, and that's what an electrician would call it. OK, it sounds like you can't figure out if your dryer is faulty or if there is no power to the unit. The very first thing to do is go to your household electricity main breaker panel and check if the supply of electricity to the dryer circuit has been cut off because a fuse has blown or any breakers have tripped. The old dryer may have blown the fuses or tripped the breakers when it went wrong.If you find that you have a blown fuse, then replace it with one of the exact same currrent rating (amps). If you have breakers, look for either the old-style ones - they have a tie-bar connecting the handles of two side-by-side breakers together - or the new kind that have a single handle on a pair of breakers. They should also have a label or markings saying their ampacity rating, either 20, 25 or 30 amps. Turn them off and back on. Old breakers can look like they've been reset when they're actually still tripped.Then go back to the new dryer and see if it now works.If it still won't work then there are two possible reasons that will have to be considered:the new dryer needs more power than the old one and that is why the fuses blew or the breakers tripped. If that is the reason, they will just keep on cutting off the supply until you have them upgraded to give enough power to your new dryer.Only a licensed electrician should do that kind of work for a 240 Volt circuit.if you definitely know that the new dryer is not more powerful than the old one, you will have to consider checking the outlet to be sure that it is receiving power. If you know how to use a voltmeter or another kind of power testing device or indicator safely then you could do that. If using a meter or power test device is beyond your skill-level, then you must ask someone who knows more about electricity to do this for you, to save you the expense of calling an electrician and not needing his services other than to tell you that your dryer is faulty, or calling an appliance repairman only to have him tell you that there is no power to your dryer.As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
