Fun Fact. When a TRU fails it smells like tuna fish. When an inverter fails it smells like maple syrup.
I'm with you. I understand water flow, and structural stuff, but electricity is a different beast.

Part of my brain is filled with the part numbers of PVC pipe fittings that I used to sell over 20 years ago. I would like to use that memory space for remembering the names of people I meet, but I haven't figured out how to do that yet.
