Most appliances would have a thermocouple to disable the main valve in event of 
loss of pilot. I've seen over-pressure mentioned in several news articles. Will 
be interesting to read the final report if it's ever made public.

Re: [AFMUG] Wire pulling lube

You should be able to source pulling lube from an electrical supplier. 20+ 
bucks a gallon gets expensive fast with the ideal lube,if a small job it may be 
all you need, but this seems not the case.

Re: [AFMUG] Wire pulling lube

2018-09-16 Thread Trey Scarborough
I would second the try blowing and vacuum a small pull string then pull 
through some mule tape. The problem with the rod is it tends to kink 
after a long distance and can get tangled in the current cable. A pull 
string attached to a plastic bag tends to ride on top. Also give the 
existing cable a little tug from each end make sure it isn't slacked up 
in the middle from being pushed with the rod.

Re: [AFMUG] OT Massachusettes Gas situation

2018-09-16 Thread Jeremy
For the first time in my life, I am the very first to float a conspiracy
theory!  (I usually think that they are all crap).  You really never know
though IOT FTW.
Stuxnet was a control/sensor exploit.  The attack on Ukraine's electrical
grid was an exploit in Siemens controllers that is well documented.  Let's
hope that the nations electrical and natural gas systems are not online.
However, a quick Google search tells me that they are probably all online,
and managed via a Windows 95 computer by some poor sap that doesn't know
what 'exploit' means.

2018-09-16 Thread Lewis Bergman
Polywater was the best we ever found. I also would try that and blowing or
vacuuming instead of a rod.

You should be able to spice oukking lube from an electrical supplier. 20+ bucks 
a gallon gets expensive fast with the ideal lube,if a small job it may be all 
you need, but this seems not the case.

 A manufacturer rep might prefer to quietly lurk and observeor a
 government rep.

 Nobody is entitled to privacy in a public forum, but I'm sure some

 I am thinking of posting this when new people join.
