Thanks Nelson, just a bit of impromptu "welding". :biggrin: Unfortunately that panel needs to stay live even in the "off" hours as I almost always have people working in the building until the wee hours and during weekends. That particular panel supplies the power for the circulating pumps for the building's HVAC system as well as a couple of tenets' computer systems that stay live 24/7. Major power outages are one thing and unavoidable but I just can't bring a panel down on a "whim", even one of mine! :biggrin:
With already having three #3 awg wires and a #10 awg wire in the conduit I have my doubts about the viability of the "shop vac method". I just don't think whatever I were to use (unless it were a maybe a portly ferret ) would be able to seal well enough to propel it along.
I did try and use a flexible "bore scope" to see what was up but it only has a 3' reach and the problem area was out of it's range. Now, if I were to strap a mini-cam to the ferret...
