Check out the Klein 11 in 1 impact rated they’re pretty sweet

I’m only 20 but I’m so scared of not knowing this in the future, it’s so important. Do you guys normally hire people to help you ?

This is one of the best videos I have seen This guy is a GREAT teacher!

Great info. Do you have a vid on balancing the loads in a sub panel. I'm installing a sub panel in detached garage. I'm using a 125 panel with a main shut off and the feed breaker from the main panel is 80 amp. I have 7 circuits. 2 - 15 amp one for fans, one for overhead lighting. 1 - 20 amp for exterior lighting and 1 exterior outlet. 3 - 20 amp for 3 interior outlet runs each with 4 receptacles (8 plugins) 1 - 30 A 240 outlet. I figured 2 - 15 A. 1- 20 A on black, 3 - 20A and the 30 A 240 on the red. However, the 240 will be used modestly for welder. All receptacles will be used for fabrication like grinders and or saws, small compressor, shop radio etc. Thoughts ? Thanks !

What a great channel to help nubs get good

You're supposed to use emory cloth or a wire brush, NOT a toothbrush. Supposed to remove oxidation while applying non-oxidizing paste. 😂😂😂

Best explanation!!

Where did you get the junction box from?

Finally got around to watching this, great vid.

All circular saw blades have carbide on the tip of the teeth. They generally fall into one of 3 categories 1) wood cutting 2) non wood material cutting 3) multimaterial (cutting wood and some non wood materials). If your cutting wood and only wood buy a wood blade. Multimaterial blades will cut wood but will dull faster bc it's only partially optimized for wood cutting. If you're an electrician and you have to cut drywall that is already on the wall, the best tool for that is a jigsaw with a blade that is cut off to a length to match the thickness of the drywall you are cutting. That way the blade is just long enough to cut through the drywall thickness and not cut electrical cable that might be past the drywall. A multitool is good to have also for cutting out corners/edge of drywall. Drywall cut out routers cut very fast but they kick up enormous amounts of dust and the bit will snap every time you hit a nail/screw that fastens the drywall to the stud. Jigsaw and multitool combination is a great way to handle cutting drywall that is already hung.

Hey man, thank you so much for all of the valuable info on your channel. I’m a coffee tech (espresso machines, commercial brewers, etc) so we basically need to be baby plumbers, baby mechanics, and baby electricians. The electrical side of things is always where I felt the least comfortable, but your videos really helped me step up and feel like I have a handle on what previously felt like black magic.

Dod not realize zip ties was approved strapping method

Carry the tool bag and work on a ladder

This 100 percent works

Great explanation!! Finally a video that brakes it down and simplifies things. Bravo.

Easy way use acetone or alcohol

You didn't mention it, but I'm assuming you also account for the cable length in your total draw calculation?

You can also use a dry erase marker it works effortlessly

Too complicated for me 😭

To be honest whilst there maybe many out there that need some "coaching" on this subject and regardless of theory, relative reactance and safety issues absolutely no one incurs extra expense on un-necessary infrastructure be it rebar or neutral conductors.

Can you show how to wire a switch loop with a duplex and split receptacle between the light and switch?

How many folds ?

Is there a neutral wire in 3 phase?

thanks man, gonna be graduating elec school in oct so this is very helpful

Hope all is well. Learn a lot from your page and website. Interviewed for one local and am waiting back on my score for an inside wireman apprenticeship through the IBEW. Still have a couple other locals I’m interviewing for. Appreciate your content 🤙🏻

So when do we use the ones that have the pigtail vs the ones that are plug on neutral without the pigtail? I have 2 20amp Dual functionCAFCI & GFCI, one for each side of my kitchen and I’m told fridge should not be on my of these protections due to minor faults being an annoyance trip and food spillage? Am I understanding this correctly?

Rubbing alcohol

Hi lighters work too

Isopropyl alcohol.... my company designed the machines that assembles Sharpie markers. When they switch colors, the system is purged with alcohol.

Yeah..nope

Thank you so much. Your videos are a life saver in so many ways. Mike Holt gets so old 😂

Just an update... That code has been relocated to 410.71 and now includes LEDs and LED drivers

stop wasting sharpie ink. use 70% ISO and tissue

🤢

Garbage sound quality

No sand paper or wire brush twat janky short

Wow! What a wealth of knowledge....rookie!

* when you are paid per hour* 😅

Why are apprentices buying power tools? That's employer provided

Nice

"I'm doing it the right way" 😂🤣😅

That's how I troubleshoot as well.

Cómo puedo conseguir libros o videos de presupuestos can you help me with that? Please

So if it's okay to use the stab in quick connectors that you show here then what's the big problem with using the stab in connectors on a receptacle?

You didn't use the wire nut properly. You're supposed to keep twisting the wire nut until there's 2 to 3 twists in the insulation below the bottom of the wire nut. Plus it would be a whole lot more effective if you use the wire nut driver that comes in the bag of wire nuts. 🤔 🤦‍♂️

Im an electrician in MN, love you stuff bro!!

After your first 1000 box offsets you don't even think about it. You just bend it right 99.999% of the time.

Gangster trick you mean as like as in dishonest, bad and street worthy? Na ill pass

thank you

Never Got the Memo on not needing anymore. I Use, And Use on The Threads as Well. I Live Near the Ocean, And Lugs and Connectors Freeze up, Corrosion, But Not the No Ox. I will continue to use.
