Here are all the tips, tricks, and code required to move an electrical box in your home. With the power shut off at the breaker, this task is totally accessible to apprentices and DIYers. Journeyman & Masters, please give Tim (and the EPro Community) any feedback or advice that come to mind!

Laced within the technical instruction are recommendations and points of professionalism employed daily by Jefferson Electric masters, journeymen, & apprentices.
