Pretty creative wiring for a new garage that didn't have electricity.

Worst garage door installation ever (http://www.dpccars.com/car-videos-11/10-19-11page-Worst-garage-door-installation-ever.htm)

What do you mean it's not to Code? We don't got no codes here!:rolleyes:

Where did this persons "common sense" escape too ? Oh I forgot - Some people have none and are totally oblivious to everyday dangers that lurk amongst us. (Shaking head here) :eek:

And it's probably protected in the main panel by a 30 amp fuse.

I'm sure. With 14 ga branch wiring, cloth insulation and double tapped.:eek:

The wiring across the fence as such makes a nice place to hang the laundry...:eek:

Probably not, fuses tend to blow, and then there would be no power. They probably figured out that by sticking a copper penny in the fuse socket, it would not blow.

That's why pennies have "In God We Trust" on them.;)

the real scary part is that it works or else they would have done it even more specially!!
