Hi folks, new member here. I am in the process of buying a small farm at the foot of the Appalachians here in East Tennessee. There is a remodeled farm house with a 200 amp service located on the exterior, a 4 stall barn with inside workshop about 100 feet from the house, and a 2 year old detached garage about 75 feet from the house. I am having the place inspected next week and I will be there for the inspection. My concerns are these;
The service to the barn consists of a romex cable which runs from the service panel, under the front porch, up a short pole, drapes over a ceramic insulator, and runs to a small sub panel in the barn.
The service to the garage seems to come from underground and goes right straight into a lighting and outlet circuit.
How much of this is incorrect and what should my concerns be. I see a lot of money to correct things.
