You are asking for engineering work and, at least in the USA, that
requires a state issued professional engineering license.

I have a question for Eric, who is, I presume, a licensed P.E.:

When someone hires you as a Professional Engineer, do you give
them completely wrong answers when two minutes of research would
have given you the correct answer? The reason I ask is because
that's what you have done in your newsgroup posts. I gave hired
PEs on several occasions to do safety-critical electrical
distribution designs, and all of them were knowledgeable, expert
in their field, and able to do the work. None of them ever gave
me any professional opinions that were as spectacularly wrong
as what you posted above. Tell the truth; you are really a
13-year-old who is pretending to be a PE, aren't you.
