    hai hifi or russound?

    I have the Hi-Fi system in my place and I couldn't be happier with it. I also use itunes and an ipod touch to control the music. As for it not putting out lots of power it goes loud enough to have 3 visits for the local cops in the first four months of living in my place :huh: .

    Nuvo Grand Concerto/Concerto Control Pads on the same Wall plate as switches

    If you decide to put them in the same box as the switches you will have to dremel off the tops and bottoms of the keypad to fit an ordinary cover. The nuvo pads are made to hold on to their own screwless covers.

    Wallplate problem

    I just used my dremel and cut the top and bottom off of the volume controls so the regular plates would fit. I did not want to have different sized plates beside each other ie light switches and the volume controls.

    Broconne's Wiring Adventure

    The electrician should use a 4x4 box or preferably a 4 11/16 x 4 11/16 to hook up your range. The CT should fit fine in either one of those boxes. You will have to find out which phase you want to monitor as one will be used to run the clock, timer etc and both phases are used for the elements...

    Running power to an external building

    A 2" hole saw will also not be big enough for a 2" connector, The hole size for 2" is actually 2.5". 2" also might be overkill for a couple of lights considering you can run anywhere between 74 and 100 conductors in it depending which ones are used.
