- In Todays video I am installing a verso 8 way fuse board with surge protection and RCBOS to power the new garage conversion I have recently 1st fixed and 2nd fixed so this was the final hurdle to getting the power on to the new Verso accessories

Thanks for watching :)
Good job ad. It’s a lifetime of learning. The full verso range is hard to beat at the minute. It’s all we use
Nicee
I love your confidence when you are now describing work you do. You always knew what to do, but it was often “Nick is this ok”. All looking good.
Great point!
Your first few jobs will be a worrie, but you find your feet and gain confidence the more you do the jobs.welldone ,much different from a work shop training to the real jobs where wells not straight or bad fixings .
Cheers
Instead of grommet strip I've been using rubber car edge protective trim. A bit more robust, comes in a few sizes. Better for rounded corners so I usually take out a few knock-outs and link then together with a disc cutter with a thin cutting disc.
Well young fellow I live in Australia now - originally from Sussex and am really pleased to see that you are now on your own and doing well and am impressed by your level of professionalism - a quality sadly missed in a lot of the generation you are from, from what I gather is badly missed in others your age both in the UK and Australia. Keep it up and I wish you all the best for the future.
Cheers
Great young tidy spark the we touches to finish is great to see , Keep it up young Adam ❤
Also I think your well past apprentice now. M8😊
Jobs a gooden what a catch phrase
@@johnspallen3132 Maybe just at the end of the video though!
Thanks 👍
Great video. I would suggest put clips in for conduit first then back it up to trunking and drill it out. Think you will find it quicker and easier. Great work
“Jobs a Gooden” Adam your going have too think of a different saying, keep up the good work, son 👍
Thanks 👍
Very interesting video, well done, work done to a very high standard!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Sometimes things don’t go to plan, I’ve just done a small job and one of the double socket is faulty , So have to go back and change it, . Great job Adam ⚡️👊 😊
20mm locknut on both sides of the 25mm hole 😉
Great video.love the tips & showing mistakes .. every days a school day
Glad you liked it!
Very nice installation, Adam. Even though some things didn't go exactly as you planned, the corrections you implemented looked good and, more importantly, were safe. Who could ask for anything more. Good on you. I'm sure the customer will be right chuffed.
Thanks for the tips!
Keep up the good work mate! Smashing it fair play!
Thanks, will do!
Get up Adam! Go on my man
Nice work Adam👍
Thanks 👍
I'll sound like a broken record, but good stuff Ad!
Cheers
Great job done.
Nice to see you’ve come along way and have you’re own channel now - what a great lad you are - keep up the good work mate.
Thank you kindly
looks good, well done
Thanks 👍
I'd have taken the switchgear out of the consumer unit before cutting... Metal filings are a pig
Cable is probably factored a lot better outside of that trunking anyway bro
I wouldn't be bothered about the armoured outside the trunking cctv cabling has definitely been done by diy dave the bodger P.s. Oh no he has struck again 😂😂
🤣
Take a drink when he says, jobs a good un.
🤣
We all make mistakes mate it's called learning 👍
Thanks 👍
you remind me of cal the dragon
I would always take a 10 mm earth outside. If you ever need to bond anything then you are good.
can you do a tool bag tour and maybe explain why you use what you do?
Will do I have in the past look at old vidoes 👍🏻
Well done mate, is Nick doing your sign offs?
Cheers
When will you run a give-away to the first person to correctly count how many times you say: "job"s-a-good'n"? At least we didn't get a Bundy "delicious" 🤣😂
Use a 20mm lock ring

Summary:
Our electrician hero faces unexpected challenges, from extra sockets to customer whims. The garage undergoes a transformation, with a Verso fuse board stealing the spotlight. A symphony of trunking and conduit dances across the scene, leaving the garage looking sharp and level. A minor hiccup with knockout sizes adds a touch of drama, but our sparky hero conquers it with grace and a touch of super glue.
Ahah nice one ☝🏻
What’s the “jobs a good’n” count?

Adam is there anything you needed to do to start your business? How do you go about testing jobs? Napit or anything? Need the information as I’m wanting to start, thanks mate
There loads I’ll do a video on it
@@AdamDunlopElectrical please make it one of your next vids! Really trying to get into it
How does the verso compare to other brands its not a brand ive used beofre ? Ive always installed Wylex but the last year ive been installing fusebox with RCBO £10 plus vat
Yea I like fusebox also it’s similar to verso bower I prefer the earth bar and neutral bar and shell of the verso hood thing is they both competitively priced and the verso has a range of accessories
@@AdamDunlopElectrical I’ll have to try it see how it goes, I think Wylex is still best for AFDD boards but I’ve not done many and with mostly working for letting agents the landlord always knows someone cheaper then get a call few months later saying can I do a EICR and it’s a new board they don’t have a cert for
how many times do you say jobs a good un 🙏
Adam, what are the size washers do you use on your fuse boards. I can’t find the right size ones. Cheers
M6 penny washers
Hello Adam you could have mounted the board on packers and gone back entry why dont the manufacturers make one so then fix to wall then mount the board to it i know wylex do one keep it simple thats what i say or just ask nick for his expertise.
Verso do a mounting plate just not for this size I believe
Boo Boo’s happen time to time it’s how you get around them that counts 👍
Fact
Adam, where's your tools you use list😃
Pending
You registered with a scheme? Napit or nic?
