Pool Electrical Wrapup (?)
Ken installed the standing junction box to meet current NEC
requirements for pools (minimum 4 feet from edge of pool, 8 inches above
water level). This, he thought, completed his part of the project; our
understanding was that the pool company would complete the job from the
junction box to the light. Now it sounds like they're expecting us
(i.e., Ken) to complete the red brass conduit to the light and then they
(more accurately, the electrician they hire) will install the light
fixture.

Meanwhile, I've got to repair the drain pipe, which was broken when
the concrete was sawed back in November. The plumbers started the repair
when they were here but never finished. Then I started last weekend, but
didn't finish. Ken accidentally shattered the part of the pipe I had
been working on, so now I get to dig under the deck to make another
clean cut before joining the two pipes. Fun times.
