In this case where the home is old and the wiring and fuse panel are out dated it would be best to have a complete service upgrade.For example, many times a 60 amp rated panel is used for a 30 amp sub-panel. First of all, the rating of an electrical panel is the maximum amount of voltage and amperage for that panel.Upgrading an Old Fuse Panel should be more than just replacing the electrical box, here’s what I suggest Tools Required: Electricians Tools, pouch of hand tools and the various power tools necessary for the electric panel upgrade.Įstimated Time: Depends on the exact type of the existing panel or fuse box, the replacement panel to be installed, the original wiring methods that were used for installing the existing wiring, and available access to the project area. Skill Level: Advanced – Best performed by a Licensed Electrician, Not Recommended for Homeowners.

Nothing is grounded here and I just don’t want to kill someone.Out of the loop is a bare severed copper wire. Do some have 3? Its been a very long time since High School Shop. I only have 2 wires running into the panel.My question is if I wanted to replace the old 30amp box with obsolete fuses with a 100amp box, would it be OK? I am completely renovating my passed Grandfathers work shed, and its 40 yrs worth of mess.The 7.3's have an injector issue called "Stickion".Electrical Question #1: Can a 30amp fuse box be replaced with a 100amp panel?. It's been run for a week now and even running quieter.IXL is going in the next oil change on the 2003 Ford 7.3 diesel. I reinstalled the blower, started a fire and waited for the heat sensor to heat up and turn on the fan. After 30 minutes of slow turning by hand it began to loosen and turn freely. I put a drop of IXL in each bushing port and slowly began by force turning the fan/motor housing for a few minutes then added another drop of oil.

That's when I noticed oil ports to the bushings. It "wouldn't turn" and of course when I tried to order a new electric motor I was told it was no longer available so I vacuumed all the lint and dust out of the windings. I remember thinking, "whatever" when Larry asked me to try the oil and give a review if I liked it.I have a Pacific Energy fireplace insert and the blower motor quit working. I'm very aware of the so called "Miracle Products" available that fix everything. I was a lube tech in industry with mechanical apprentice and have been to many continuation ed. Then Larry introduced me to an oil product called IXL. I have used HEI to check or rebuild all my generator's, alternator's and starters for 50 years! Trucks, cars, tractors, RV's or my snake river boat HEI checks them all! Until recently that was all I used them for.
