Plumbing question, electrical too

[Bill M]

I have this cheap valve that leaks if I open it too far. That amount of travel lessens every time the water gets turned off. The bottom is out of the slab. What is the best way to to connect below where the most room is available on the pipe. Top will just have a couple connection. See photo below.

Trouble shooting a dead circuit, single double outlet on the circuit. Where should I start? Loose wires, then...

Thanks.

Electrical:
1. "Single double outlet" are you saying its a duplex outlet?
where is it located.?
how far from the panel.?
got a pic?

Look upstream from outlet for tripped GFI outlet

Answered, thanks.

Yes, a duplex that is the only outlet on the circuit. Specifically done that way for the freezer. About 3 ft from panel.

Look upstream from outlet for tripped GFI outlet

There is no GFI on the dedicated freezer circuit.

Anyone have advice on the tight plumbing connection?

Burnt wire…either at the breaker or the plug ?
Bad breaker ?

Cut everything out and reconstruct

Always start at your source. In this case the breaker. If it has 110 leaving it, check the incoming on the plug. Check between the white and colored wire AND check between the colored wire and the bare copper or green wire. If you have voltage between the white and colored wire you have a bad plug. If you don’t, and you have voltage between the colored and the copper/green wire, your neutral is loose, or disconnected. If no voltage can be found, something is between the plug and the breaker. GFCI? Maybe. But it would not be correct if that is the case. Someone could have scabbed off another circuit and you will need to trace the wire to find the break.

Always be ready for a loose wire to jump out when removing a plug.

Try a pvc valve with unions, they're around 6" long. You might get lucky and can just cut out the old valve install the new one.

That isn’t tight at all. Cut it out and replace it

[E.TX.BOWHUNTER]

Now is see the circuit is 3’ and dedicated. Loose wire, bad plug or bad breaker.

[E.TX.BOWHUNTER]

On the plumbing, cold PVC cracks very easily. Heat it up or wait for warmer weather.

Cut out Ball valve put new ball valve in use a slip fix coupling below the new ball valve to get it back together extremely easy fix

Thanks for the responses. I will investigate and head to the hardware store.
