Customer’s Home Meter Socket was Broken! | Day in the Life of an Electrical Contractor

What happens here

Using a cordless oscillating multi-tool, carefully cut the existing 3-inch PVC conduit in two sections to remove the recessed portion. One cut is made higher up on the conduit, and another lower down, creating space to insert a new section and re-align it with the meter socket. Ensure safety by wearing appropriate protective gear during this step.

Goal: Remove the strained section of the PVC conduit.
