TV Boxes and Other Specialty Products
There’s no getting around it. A lot of people spent a lot more time in
their homes the past few years. And while some of it was by choice, not
all of it was.
I retired from electrical work and work my copywriting business totally from home now.

Bonding vs. Grounding: A Primer
Bonding and grounding are simple concepts, but, unfortunately, they’re
also easily confused with each other. Definitions of one term often get
wrapped up in the definitions of the other, and, before long, one can
begin thinking the words are interchangeable.

that might occur due to high voltages resulting from lightning strikes,
line surges or unintended contact with higher-voltage lines.
