There should be more contractors that take as much pride in their work as you do. Honesty and integrity is non existent these days

I am an IT field engineer for over 22 years.  In the early 2000's i got tired of waiting for electricians to run my conduit and wires for Rack related outlets and cables so I shadowed under a journeyman old timer (think he had over 30 years in the field) and he taught me more than I will ever remember.  I can easily rewire regular houses, change meter sockets, even disconnect the wires from the poles (our utility carrier doesn't care because it is less for them to do).  I say all that because, while I'm decent, I'm certainly no electrical pro, but neither do people doing their own electric on youtube warrant any extra "kudos" from me.  HOWEVER, you impressed me with your A) DETAIL, B) KNOWLEDGE, C) INTEGRITY, and D) WORKMANSHIP.   If I were to ever give up IT and go full blown electrician I would be honored to be able to work for your company!  A+

If I may make a suggestion - carry a small magnet and put it below the area where you are drilling to catch the pieces as they fall.  I like the panel.

Whoooooa, watch your head at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-eM7jUHUNSA&t=946">15:46</a>, there's roofing nails to bash your head into! In that tight space it's like you're inside an iron maiden. lol

The way you not only "butter" your customers up, but properly inform them on situations outside of your control is a skill. Your people skills are on point!

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-eM7jUHUNSA&t=1421">23:41</a> needing more ground onto it... Leviton MAKES additional ground bars designed to mount into the panel in several places (including your top there...) and the ground bar which is at your bottom, can be moved to your top too!

Just a note on the leviton surge protector : you can use it as a normal branch circuit as well. I've seen a lot of installers not utilizing them as branches just leaving them unwired

The extra ground bar that came with the panel could have been placed in the upper area on this panel. That is where I installed it on my new Leviton panel.

Thanks for the comment about the neutral on the two pull breaker. I just wired in a new Leviton panel and had that very question. Thanks for definitively answering that question for me. It would be easy to miss the "N" label on the breaker.
