The snow settles down and I look to see where my buddy is
Expecting to see him in the exact same spot holding on to a tree and he's gone
I can't see anything, I unzip my coat
I pull my beacon out, hit receive to see where he is and hold on one sec
Hey
Yeah, so first job we're headed to Santaquin, apparently it's a store of some sort they got a fluorescent ballast that's out and
They want a new one. Usually we don't start this late. But this is the on-call week. Guess you get a little bit of solace by
sleeping in
Gotta make sure we don't get hit by a car, that'd be a bad day.
Yeah, sometimes the bulbs can be loose but they all feel tight so yeah
Yeah, it's that time if you just did one this one's probably dead too
K, well let me write up a couple options for ya, to do just one, to do multiples and we'll go from there
So the first one this is everything we talked about the two t-8 4 bulb ballast so one in here one in the other room
Yeah started working with Wyatt back at Hepworth when I was 19
so I was figuring it out, four more years half of my life will be with Any Hour
So that's weird to think.
So our on call week, we usually start later I know some guys start at their normal nine
I like to sleep in, and so I usually leave the house by about ten o'clock or depending how far a drive we got
Get to the job by 11:00 and then take calls 'til
Essentially the office says you don't have any more and last night
I got home at 9:00 and then the rest of the night you got to sit there with the anticipation that every text that comes in is
a call. You got to stop doing what you're doing and head out and then you really mad at your friends and they start just texting me
A ton and then you don't know if it's a call or not. So and Brad's really good at that
Ballasts are one of these things you look at them and it's just a sea of wires everywhere
We're gonna flip the light switch.
There we go
Okay, those should last you for many more years. I'll send this over to you
If you have any issues give us a call. You bet.
Okay, so the next call, we were gonna go to Orem but then a priority one came in and so now we get to have
A lovely jaunt up the I-15 to West Jordan
We'll be there probably about one o'clock unless we have some exciting traffic
All I know is they have some sparking they don't like, sparking usually isn't a good thing. So
So we'll go find out what's going on
Hello, how are you? Good I'm Scott
So every time you turn it on that's when you get..
Okay, well
You've been lucky that you haven't had bigger issues
You're melting
see how black that is, and you've actually been
Melted the wire back here and it's melted the side of the box. I don't know if you can see that in there. Yeah
So that's where we're at right there. Okay.
Right off the bat I can tell that there has been water and corrosion coming into the panel
Can you see all this rust corrosion in here
we're at
116
And our second one. We're at 120. That's a pretty big gap. We want to be about 120 for both of them.
This is our meter
So power comes in from the power company up here comes into here this is what records how much power you use
And this is our main breaker right here if we turn this off it shuts everything off
inside
New, it's not pulled out of someone else's house. It's a brand new breaker
Surge protection we talked about the surge protection. So that's included in the panel and then extra space
So whatever the world brings us. We have extra space. Okay
Got our nice new shiny panel
It's considerably larger than the old one. These are the lock rings that hold the wires and connectors in
Okay, so we're gonna knock out..
the holes..
Gonna go give them a heads up and turn power off
No power. So, you know you got corrosion
When the screw is black or brownish color.
Got caught in an avalanche about six years ago my buddy
And I were we were doing backcountry and it snowed pretty good
And by this time I was getting tired and I happened to look up and I could just see this plume coming towards us.
I just
yelled, Oh crap, it started to hit us. And I thought it's a little slough because I've been in a lot of sloughs
But it just kept coming and coming and my buddy Cody was right in front of me. Probably about 15 feet
and it just wouldn't stop it was more and more and more force
And I turned and I was able to grab a tree and hold on to it
And I was on the uphill side and it was coming over my head and just kept crushing me
I couldn't breathe anymore. And I I thought I was going to die
finally it started to to relax a little bit and I could inhale and I expect to see my buddy Cody doing the same thing and
And he wasn't there.
and his ski pole was hanging in a tree about 20 feet down the the hill and I yell his name there's no response
So I pulled my beacon out
I don't pick his signal up at all and get uncovered and just start heading down where the slide went
No signal no signal and then finally I pick his beacon up
I'm just in my ski boots at this point because the Avalanche took my skis off
And I'm running down the slope getting closer closer closer within 15 feet
Got my shovel out and started digging and I finally hit a ski
And I was like, oh thank God. There's a ski and it was my ski
And all of a sudden all this doubt in the entire like everything
How did my beacon track my ski what's going on? And so I keep digging. I'm about five feet down
I hit a backpack. I was like oh finally uncover it. Okay, butt, head and I uncover his face and
The first thing I hear is I love you. I love you. I love you and that was him
He was still conscious and it took 45 minutes to get him uncovered to where he could stand up, from when it hit us to when
Got him uncovered
Was just under 10 minutes
And he said he was starting to lose consciousness
Blacking out and he could hear a weird sound and it was my shovel
Getting closer to him, so
We got definitely lucky cuz if I would have gotten buried more than I did. Then we both would have been dead
This is how I tell when I turn the power off
Found it
It tells you if you have electricity or not
So it's burnt the insulation
All the way through and so that's why it's sparking
The outlet, this wire just broke off in there
Then right here and inside the box it was actually melting
No, got a message from Troy
Saying we'd like you to do a ride along and I said I rather wouldn't he said well
they really want you to and I said, well, I really don't want to and then I immediately get a
message from Wyatt saying
We really want you to do a ride along. So we're here doing the ride along. Hey we got light.
We got power, no sparks
And heat I'd say it's working, now we show and tell
Yeah
There you go, so it looks full but see how these ones are smaller
You bet, sorry you got to reset all your clocks, well one down hopefully not another one to go
Well, I hope you like being an electrician for a day we're still on call the rest of the night
So if I get a call, I'm giving you a call
You know, It's really what
what's around you, who's around you and the
Relationships that you have that matter because it can be taken away in the blink of an eye
