    Is 22ga meter box wire acceptable?

    How would I identify that? I only see 24vac to the motor starter coil. The heater portion consist of 3 screw in coils (one for each phase) that react to excess current. Seems to be a mechanical trip.

    Pole mounting Lorex dome cameras

    Did you buy the optional junction box from lorex and mount that to the pole first? The reason I'm asking is that the wires will be external to the pole and I will use a guy wire to support them to the building.
