310501 - Follow up ref SDS 4 0000, ref SDS 3 0000.
310502 -
310503 - Jason with Delta Electric & Pump Company installed a network cable in
310504 - the ceiling to connect the router in the office with computer c18 in
310505 - the master bedroom. Jason did outstanding professional work including
310506 - recommending installation of a standard electrical connection box with
310507 - a wall plate. ref SDS 0 199J Moving the cable from laying on the
310508 - floor across heavy foot traffic improved safety and appearance of the
310509 - townhouse (1158 St Matthew PL), and maintained performance of the
310510 - system with high speed transmission, rather than rely on wireless
310511 - networking. Jason provided 3 tie lines that will make installing
310512 - future cables fast and easy. ref SDS 0 JF3P Total cost $153.92
310513 - reflects efficient, professional work by Jason. Delta Electric will
310514 - submit an invoice on Monday for payment. ref SDS 0 598K

310901 - Background reported on 130307 0749, ref SDS 4 OS7H, and citing
310902 - planning to improve ergonomics in the record on 130305 1223.

310906 - Jason called at 0943. He is at Home Depot and then will arrive on
310907 - site in about 20 minutes.
310909 - ..
310910 - The armoire must be moved slightly at one end to provide clearance
310911 - for access to the wall and ceiling in back. It is very heavy, so to
310912 - reduce weight, removed the Vizio 42" HD flat screen television and
310913 - placed it on the bed in the other bedroom. Reducing the weight makes
310914 - moving the armoire easier and safer, since the Vizio television makes
310915 - the armoire top heavy, and so risks tipping.
310916 -
310917 - [...below moving the armoire was fast and easy, and without
310918 - incident. ref SDS 0 XF4K

311301 - Jason arrived representing Delta Electric & Pump Company to implement
311302 - the work order installing network cable in the ceiling, as discussed
311303 - on 130307 0749. ref SDS 4 OS7H
311305 - ..
311306 - He surveyed the job and discussed again placing a wall plate next to
311307 - the existing electrical outlet behind the armoire for installing the
311308 - network router cable within the wall, rather than merely hanging the
311309 - cable from a hole in the ceiling behind the armoire.
311311 - ..
311312 - Agreed with this recommendation putting the cable in the wall with an
311313 - outlet. This yields a professional and durable solution.
311315 - ..
311316 - Jason asked how many cables will be installed today, noting on
311317 - Thursday there was discussion of...
311318 -
311319 - 1. Network router cable
311320 - 2. HDMI cable from computer to Vizio flat panel television
311321 - 3. USB cable for keyboard
311322 - 4. USB cable for mouse
311324 - ..
311325 - Explained scope for work today is installing only the network router
311326 - cable. After experimenting with alternate configurations, will
311327 - consider further moving the cables from the floor to overhead with
311328 - wall outlets.
311329 -
311330 - [...below Jason installed tie lines to make installing
311331 - additional cables through the same wall port easier,
311332 - faster, and less expensive. ref SDS 0 JF3P
311334 - ..
311335 - Helped Jason slide the armoire from the wall for access. This was
311336 - fast and easy for both of us working together and with the 40 pound
311337 - Vizio 42" television removed, per above. ref SDS 0 298N

311701 - Jason has completed drilling access for the cable in the master
311702 - bedroom wall.
311704 - ..
311705 - He reported finding this interior wall is insulated, possibly to
311706 - prevent heating the bedroom from the adjacent utility closet that has
311707 - the water heater and air heater for the house. It is one of the
311708 - reasons the upstairs is usually warming than downstairs.
311710 - ..
311711 - Jason was able to pass the network cable between the sheetrock and the
311712 - insulation to overcome this unexpected condition.
311714 - ..
311715 - Jason provided 3 tie lines for future work to install cables for HDMI
311716 - flat panel television and computer screen, and USB cables for the
311717 - keyboard and mouse, per planning in initial discussion, above.
311718 - ref SDS 0 HF49 If these are installed at a later date, the work will
311719 - be easier, faster, and less expensive.

312101 - Completed running the cable through the wall plate and connecting to
312102 - the computer in the armoire with approximately 8 feet of free cable.
312104 - ..
312105 - The wall plate Jason installed is big enough for installing 3 more
312106 - cables using extra tie lines jason installed, per above. ref SDS 0

312501 - Work complete; Jason requested inspection.
312502 -
312503 - The 50 foot cable turned out to be barely long enough. The cable in
312504 - the office/computer room hangs with stress on an angle from the
312505 - closet door to the router on the display table behind the desk.
312507 - ..
312508 - We checked and found there is enough cable behind the armoire to pull
312509 - the cable another foot into the computer room, and still leave several
312510 - feet for reserve to avoid stress on the connection to the computer in
312511 - the bedroom.
312513 - ..
312514 - Jason went into the computer room and pulled the cable another foot.
312516 - ..
312517 - This change eliminated stress on the connection to the router, and
312518 - maintained
312520 - ..
312521 - We noticed the cable drop from the closet ceiling in the office hangs
312522 - loosely several inches from the wall and inside the closet adjacent to
312523 - the door frame. Asked about fastening the cable to the inside door
312524 - frame along the exterior wall. Jason found some heavy guage
312525 - two-pronged tacks in his truck. He used three to fasten the cable to
312526 - the inside opening frame.
312528 - ..
312529 - After this was done, the appearance is improved since the cable is no
312530 - longer evident in the field of vision, and does not interfere using
312531 - the closet, thus providing a professional installation.
312533 - ..
312534 - Helped Jason move the armoire back into original alignment, moved
312535 - earlier for clearance to access the work behind the armoire.
312537 - ..
312538 - Jason said he will do clean up and then submit an invoice for the
312539 - work today.
312541 - ..
312542 - Advised the customer will do clean up.
312544 - ..
312545 - Jason indicated he worked 2.5 hours. He agreed to bill for 2 hours.
312547 - ..
312548 - Offered to pay cash.
312550 - ..
312551 - Jason said he cannot accept cash for the work today.
312553 - ..
312554 - Discussed credit card payment.
312556 - ..
312557 - Jason advised the company no longer processes payments with credit
312558 - cards.
312560 - ..
312561 - Offered to issue payment today Wells Fargo online banking that will
312562 - mail payment on Monday, 130311, to Delta Electric & Pump Company.
312564 - ..
312565 - Jason agreed and went to his truck to prepare an invoice.
312567 - ..
312568 - He returned and explained there are no invoice forms in his truck
312569 - today. Instead and to establish terms for invoicing he had prepared
312570 - an explanation of work performed and charges along with customer
312571 - identification using ink pen and paper.
