We had a problem at the house and I had to unfinish the basement. It's now just block wall with some kind of paint on it.I would attach an over sized piece of plywood and attach your panel to that. The blue things are called tap-cons. Attach them to the mortar joints. Make sure you do not make the hole over sized. It needs to be precise for those things to hold.
The electrical aspect is a mess. The service panel needs to be secured and nomex running to switches and outlets is hideous. Everything is just hanging down the wall.
So, my question is, can I drill holes in the block or morter for concrete anchors to allow the securing of the panel, the mounting of raceways and new outlet boxes, etc.
I found some nice blue concrete bolts (they call them anchors)
but it's basically just an 1/8th inch diameter bolt that tightens into a drilled hole. No 1/4 inch hole for an anchor insert needed.
Is it ok to put these holes in my block basement walls?
TIA
