Ok, I'm not a certified electrician as you will soon tell. I have a new (she) shed where I have installed a simple 100A subpanel. I ran three simple 20A circuits in the shed on 12/2. One for lights and a dorm fridge, one for outlets down one side, one for outlets down the other and one outlet outside. Adding all her expectations together plus 20% more or so comes to about 25A max expected at any given time in this shed. I am planning to run AWG 6 stranded from a subpanel in a garage to this subpanel in the shed, on a double pole breaker. Total distance from source panel to farthest outlet in shed is approx 125'. I have pulled the appropriate permits and will need to get it inspected. I have already driven two ground rods at the shed and wired the interior, now I just need to pull the feed from the garage and hook it all up. I would like to use 1" conduit the whole way to give plenty of room. Here's my problem, the route. When I asked the inspector about this element of the design he gave me a short answer that if I didn't know I shouldn't be doing it and to get a certified electrician to do it, which PO'd me and made me want to do it even more. The only way I can do it is come out the top of the panel, 90 degree across top of a 36' wide garage, 90 degree down to the floor on the other side, 90 degrees through an outlet body out to the trench, and then finally 90 degrees up into the shed. I've done a lot of reading, this is the max amount of bends I can have and I am concerned I will not be able to pull AWG 6 through that whole length even with help. I'm also not crazy about splicing #6 in a junction box and I have not yet looked at the code on that to even know if it's legal. What do you all think about pulling #6 through this configuration over 115'? How would you do it?

Hello. I have a worrying issue going on - lights all over my house are flickering, and relays in my electric oven kept rapidly firing every minute or so. Some things are working fine though. My TV, a/c and xbox stayed on fine with no issues though. These things are located all over my house. I just had someone come out because I had no hot water - the aquastat on my boiler was bad. He replaced it. I first noticed the lights flickering as he was working on it. My PC also started restarting randomly. I know he had the breaker on for the furnace the whole time because I turned it on once he arrived (at his request) . Even with the furnace breaker off, it still happens though. Turned off the breaker for my oven and the lights still flicker. I'm trying to isolate by turning off certain breakers and turning others on but i'm not noticing any obvious trends or particular circuits acting up. I turned the breaker for the oven back on and it stayed quiet for a few minutes - until the refrigerator kicked on for something. Then it immediately started clicking. Are there any obvious things I can check with a multimeter before I have to call out a second weekend repairman?
