Q:Is lime wire any good????

Lime wire's great.

Q:I'm cutting 18 gauge wire, so I can run valve wires to the timer in the garage. The plastic casing over the wire is pretty thick, so I had to squeeze hard. I accidentally cut into the color casing of the actual wire inside, so I want to start over. How can I cut this wire away, and start again?

Take a utility knife and cut a 3/4 slot at the end of the cable parallel with the conductors. Use two pliers, one to hold the outer sheath, and one to grip the conductors. Pull them 180 degrees away from each other. When you have the stripped length you want, cut off the outer sheath where the wires are not inside. Any cutting around the circumference of the sheath while the wires are enclosed, will lead to cutting the insulation on the wires. This is why many manufacturers install a nylon zip cord inbetween the wires. You can grab it with one pliers and pull it away from the cable while holding the cable with the other pliers, to cut the outer sheath.

Q:Does anyone know what the wire harness is called that runs from the chassis to the door called on a 1995 jeep gc. This wire harness includes the speaker wires, power window wires, and power lock wires. I have checked everywhere and cannot see what this harness is called.

Its called a wire harness. I beleive it is the main dash wire harness, but you wont get anywhere with that if you are trying to get one from a parts house or dealer, You just have to hit and miss at the salvage yard or digging around yourself and get lucky. But if you can trace the wires to a block connector or firewall connector you will be in luck and just tell them the location of the block where the harness is connected and you should be there, just remember all your options in you truck will have to match the options in the donor truck or the harness wont work for you

Q:Ok so I bought a blower and barrow at the junk store... Figured I could use a v-belt to drive it with this old motor I have... Homemade dust collector!!! Anyhow I have no Idea how to wire it up... I know it probably needs a capacitor but thats about it... It's an Emerson... Has orange, blue, brown, white, and black. Any Ideas would be great! On the sticker it list three different speeds (rpms) So i'm guessing I don't need all the wires and some are just quot;taps.quot;

i think of you have enormously plenty responded your individual questions. The drain is clogged as they generally get with out each year maintenance or a minimum of two times a summer season pouring bleach in the path of the line. And besides, it has probable broken the blower motor. One issues for specific although, by no ability attempt and repair the unit or look at it with out first turning the capacity off to the kit which it variety of feels which you ignored to do. I additionally undertaking to assert that somebody has at one time replaced that blower motor because of the fact your description of the wires might point out that it wasnt production facility set up anymore.however the provider tech which you will might desire to call and time table an appointment with would be waiting to repair and replace mandatory aspects. go away something as much as the pros

Q:my rabbit is chewing wires and in one area in my room there are like 300 wires i was just wondering if i can spray something on the wires cause i thought i saw something that said that please help!!!!

You need to block off the whole area. Some rabbits actually like the taste of the bitter sprays, so they aren't that effective.

Q:I have a 3 wire source I want to connect it to a switch on/off and then make it 2 wire to the light

If you have black red and white, it could be wired for a three way switch, best to call an electrician as this is too complicated to write the testing procedures. If the wires are black white green more than likely the green is ground. Simple test with power on black to white 110v, black to green 110v, white to green 0v. If this is the case, ground the switch using the green wire to the ground terminal on the switch, whites from the power source is connected to white going to light using a wire nut or other approved method, both blacks are connected to the two brass terminal screws on the switch, it does not matter which terminals you use, just make sure when you are installing the switch back into the work box that off is down. Good luck and if you are in any way unsure call a licensed electrician, they'll only charge a service fee plus materials for a job that small.

Q:I had gotten 5 commercial solar cells from siliconsolar. But, I need to know where could I get wires to connect to the solar cells, in order to harness the cells energy.

Your query should be sent to the solar cell dealers, it is a matter of buying and selling industrial materials

Q:okay my apt building was built in 1975 I am changing my light fixture new from home depot and the ground wire, the black and white wire are basic on the new fixture. I am looking in the case box in my ceiling all I see is a black wire attached to red, and a yellow wire attached to a white wire which then attaches to another two white wires (then gos go's up behind the casing) I am not sure which is the ground here. There is a copper looking wire that is thick, thick it just isnt as malleable as the new ground wire that is on my new light fixture. It seems very difficult to maneuver.. Could this be my ground from the ceiling. It was attached to the mount of the old fixture my a screw.

The wire that was attached to the mount is your ground. (It should be thicker than the one from the fixture. - Use a 'wirenut' to make the connection.) The White wires will be your 'Neutrals'- 'White' from your new fixture. For the 'Black' from the fixture, use the same wire that was connected to the old fixtures 'black'. If you didn't keep track of which is which, then you are now 'in over your head'. Get experienced help before you cause damage or hurt yourself.

Q:installing whelen car strobe lights.the directions say to wire the power to the battery with wire that can hold 125% of the power

Go with a guage bigger than the wire harness on the strobe. If you go too small of a wire it could put too much of a load on the wire. That will cause it to heat up and can catch fire if it gets hot enough. Like what sparky said, use a relay. I installed neons and strobes in my car using 10ga wire relays, and a power distribution block.

Q:Hey there, so my cat chewed through some of my wires, what should I do to like fix them?

I am assuming the wires your talking about are the cords for appliances, lamps or what have you. And the type that you have to plug into your wall. You can as another post mentioned wrap the wire with black electrical tape if both side of the wire arn't touching. Or you can go to your local ACE hardware store and a floor associate would be more than happy to show you the items available for repairing or replacing the chewed wires. One of my cats started doing the same thing so I gathered the excess wire and tied it into a small bundle with a wire tie and the cat quit chewing them.
