Yep there were two cables coming in the same opening, no way to make the grommet seal. Also, that nice white connector on the camera comes with an IP66 seal, I always use it outdoors.
Yeah... I used self amalgamating tape on mine, belt and braces. Also I really think those pass-through (EZ RJ45) are asking for trouble, even the ones that have caps. The RJ45 with a load bar/bridge bar are just as quick to make off.
I would avoid those pass through connectors. Bare copper on the end is more likly to corrode if exposed to damp conditions than the gold plated connector. Also you shouldn't be crimping RJ45 connectors onto solid cable as they are not designed for this.
December marks my 10 year anniversary of working with my current employer. These last few years I've absolutely hated it! Treated like dirt and nothing more than just a number. Those guys are very lucky to have you as a boss, please never change how you treat your staff, its very refreshing to see! Incredible environment to work in, hats off to you man.
I am 55 and I still climb around in the roof ... I use crawling boards ... I put a handle on the front each board (about 1.5 m long) ... you hold each handle and rest your knees on the plank ... so you slide the left hand and knee forward then bring the right hand and knee forward ... like skiing ... if you need to get into really tight spaces ... screw 40x40 battens along the side of the main beams ... then screw supports across ... then you slide into the tight space ... you can lay on the boards if you need to get down low.
5:49 When I did by first IPAF day, I was told it's not a requirement on a scissor (1b,3b), as the harness's main function is in a boom, to stop you being thrown from the basket. That is the reason they tell you to have as short as a lanyard as possible, to prevent ejection from the basket.
So nice to see a human being running his business without a shitty-corporate approach (won't say names here :p). Glad you're not wasting viewer's time with videos in which you learn Jay, James , Sarah to speak in the same way.
Great video Tom, been following you for years when it was just you on your own you’ve done very well mate. Recently at 32 I have started my own company I’m a commercial gas engineer doing commercial plant room works etc. Shocked how much work goes in behind the scenes people wouldn’t believe with all the HRMC etc quotes insurances. your a great inspiration keep the hard work up any tips welcome bud.
On the scissor lift topic, I always tried to latch where possible but haven't since doing IPAF. On the tower front, a boss or youngman tower would give you much more confidence in its safety. And on the scissor lift front, we've just bought a power tower, doesn't weigh tons, but should only be used inside. A SJ3 would work for you with a suitable low loader
@@terrysinclair136 my favorite so far has to be the radiator one: "Brian... this Rad's in the way" -"oh don't worry just fucking board over it. No-one will fucking know!"
Good insight on Lighting circuit and your diagram drawing Tom , And it looks like I’m going to have to get used to Crawling in the Loft , Thanks Jensen 👊
GRP towers are such a ball ache to work with they are heavy and cumbersome. The floors are friction fit hooks as apposed to the it ally counterpart. Unless its specified by the client and you can risk assess it out I would deffinatly go for the ally tower over grp and if you do get the odd job where it needs grp just hire it in. If youve not used one before i would seriously consider hiring one of each for a day and have a go with them so you get a feel for them. My old job used to take me on the rail and we always used ally unless specified by the works package plan.
Don't forget that some RJ-45 connectors are made for solid and some for stranded wire. You will end up with intermittent connections if you use the wrong type.
I recommend you to always use an Ethernet cable analyzer, such as the new Fluke CableIQ, when terminating cables. It is not as expensive as a cable certifier, however it is much better than most cable testers that in fact aren’t really testers. You will avoid 99.9% issues related to problems with the Ethernet cable itself and/or rj45 connectors. And it will help you troubleshoot other issues such as PoE problems. For the past 25 years I work in IT, and I can assure you it is invaluable when installing ethernet cables or installing PoE cameras. Greetings from Belgium
I usually fit reolink and have found it to be very good, out the box it's ready to go, I noticed the cable came in the top of the box, water could have tracked down to the connection. The electrician following you on that lighting job will have some fun in the future😂😂
Here (in Germany) the regulation is: whenever there is a marked point (with the blue sign, as in your bucket) you have to use it. If the scissor lift has none, then you don't have to tie in, especially when you are not allowed to use the rail. Basically, do what the vendor expects you to do.
22:39, re the gym, you'll need to provide a shower somewhere in the unit to wash after, even if it's a shower in a plastic portaloo/portapotty cabin thing with a saniflo pump. I'm fairly sure HSE require it. 🙂 sounds like your going to become an even better place to work mate. On another note your only a year older than me mate!
11:15 your drawing of a 2 way switch circuit took me am minute to get it ^^ I learned it different, Live to C from Switch 1 and lamp goes to C of switch 2 and then wires L1-L1 and L2-L2
As far as I can work out by drawing the flowing power, Tom's circuit only works if both switches are set from c to l1, any other combo breaks the flow. Really confused as I created the exact setup (by accident) tom drew, and was wondering for half an hour why I could only switch the lights on if upstairs and downstairs switches where both pointing down.
In the UK it’s generally recommended not to wear a harness in scissors. You can’t be bounced out of a scissor like you can in a boom. Also scissors generally have a larger work platform and a lanyard is just a potential trip hazard. However it’s up to the site to make their own rules. I’ve been on sites in other countries that insist on harness in any work platform.
I remember the same from IPAF training. Going over a bump in a boom lift can catapult you out. Scissor lifts are far less likely to do that plus you walk around more in a scissor lift, making a lanyard a trip hazard.
I’m not sure of the way the scissor lifts are in the UK , but here in Canada there is D rings bolted on the floor of the scissor lifts that you latch onto. And it is mandatory to use a harness for anything over 8 ft on a ladder or any personnel lifting device.
@@dj_paultuk7052 did u see the state of that cable to it looked like it got caught and stripped some of the cable as well but yeah the seal was not even installed
Thats funny ive had the exact same problem with my crimpers and they look exactly the same you could visibly see that it was missing pins when crimping ofcourse it took multiple times recrimping and scratching my head before i figured it out. I now have a crimp tool that works with pass through cat 5e rj45s and is so much easier you dont have to worry about ensuring all the wires are the same length when inserting them because they pass through the rj45 and then are cut off neatly in the crimping process has saved a lot of time and reterminating and head scratching lol. Those klein ones look the business though will have to check them out. Love your videos been doing cctv and alarms for two years in New Zealand and starting my electrical apprenticeship in couple days.
Good job Tom. With the harnessing the lifts and the cherry picker .the harness is supposed to be super short lanyard so u can't fall out or climb on the rails .
PIRs just have a relay from Live to Switched Live, no need to disconnect power when overriding, just put a switch between Live and the Switched Live output.
There are points for fixings your harness. Harnesses are only required in scissor lifts when conditions merit it. Flat solid ground, indoors and no wind, then no need for harness. More when conditions merit harnesses. We recently completed 3a and 3b last week and asked this question.
i learnt the hard way always make use of that waterproof caps that come with the cam even if u put it in a well sealed box and add 1 or 2 of those silica gel pack to remove moisture
IPAF guidance is that harnesses aren't usually necessary on a scissor because you are normally only going up and down rather than moving in other directions as with a boom & usually a scissor lift is used on flat/level ground so you are unlikely to be "thrown" from the work platform, the caveat being that all situations should be individually risk assessed....
You're expected to be on flat level ground. But not all ground is completely level. The only real danger of tipping is the operator. I've seen people who get paid near minimum wage operate these things with zero fear. In a perfect world a harness isn't required.
@@hemi4722 i once saw someone go up 6 mtrs on a scissor lift, not be where he needed to be, turn his wheels about 90 degrees and go full throttle. He allmost managed to drive the chassis away from under the lift. His colleague in the lift managed to avoid more danger.
Am I crazy... Or do you have your hotel switch (2way) wrong? 1 and 2 are supposed to link to themselfs and live and the switch wire to C. Your switch only works if both are correctly switched 😂😂
Can't remember if it was Ireland or the UK but a few years back I remember reading a story about 2 lads killed when the scissor lift they where working on toppled over into a river. The lads didn't die in the fall they drown because they pulled under by there harnesses. Since then I stopped using a harness in a sissor lift.
Looking at that switch rework was wrong to me, you now have no way of switching off the pir. When ever I’ve had to install an override switch on a pir I use a 3 position switch, common to l1, l2 or off
During my ipaf they said to not wear a harness in a scissor (1a, 3a) for the reasons you said unless it's a special circumstance with no/low rails for example then you'd use a restraint harness. However you do use one in a picker/boom (1b/3b) because you can go over a bump and catapult yourself out, however you don't ever wear one if you're working near water as if the picker falls into the water a harness will stop you from escaping
Skyjack scissor lifts we use have lashing points for harness. On another note I seem to remember you getting stick on your original video for not paying attention to colours when terminating. I guess its water although its under gutter and soffit so quite surprising. Ip Box fail ? I had a wiska box let water in the other day and everything was very tight, now its full of gel !
have you ever used those 3 position 2 way switches, they work wonders if you have automatic lights where you can have them just on by bypassing the PIR, off or PIR control. got it on my drive way lights works great.
waiting for the dick dust caps and replacing important tools in drawers with rubber johnnies...still nothing beats spraying red welding dye penetrant into your mates steelies when he's wearing white socks..
Decided to put lights in my wardrobe a few months ago, which involved getting into the loft. Can confirm, it was like potholing and I've definitely gained lockdown weight.
Ive had some issues with mates setup and it turned out to be a faulty port on the NVR So before u start doing any troubleshooting start plugging cameras 1by1
I keep looking at the diagram of those two switches thinking they re wired wrong ... I mean not wrong but like someone just wanted to use one more wire for some reason ... shouldnt the input be on the top "C " of one of those and ouptput on the C of the other one ? ....
Can be done either way Problem I have with the drawing is the feed to either side of the ‘single’ when in fact both should be in the same terminal, as the other side is the neutral. Tom knows this of course, it’s just an error on the drawing
Quinetic for switching / lighting? Don't use through plugs on waterproof connections! Get the two part ones with loading bar and use waterproof tape after. Problem with network cable is water can track down the cable.
Hi Tom at work we hire out haulotte scissor lifts and they have the tie in points on them we have a 8meter and a 10 nice to operate and relatively cheap to buy I believe would probably be what I would recommend
I like gymnast rings so that are adjustable enough so you can practice L sits, push ups, pull ups, iron cross and back/chest mobility (basically everything but legs)
When doing rj45 plugs, get yourself a proper tester, it has saved me 10 fold in time, every crimp stick tester on it if ok no going back and get a tester that has Poe voltage on it just to confirm voltage is good.
I used scissor lifts in rail working on rolling stock, we had two that were 'normal' and two with drop sides to access roof equipment. rule was if working with a dropped side you had to harness, if not then free reign to work without. Normally we worked without and just had the basket a little bit lower....
In all of your diagrams, you drew the lights as a series circuit - which is confusing. Maybe for clarity it would be better to include the neutral and draw them as a proper parallel circuit? ('No need to include the CPC.)
Why the neutral only goes the the PIR and then to the lights doesn’t really play a roll in switching (for lights) unless you have smart switches then you need a neutral at the switch
@@kallumnorman9825 If drawing the lights in a parallel circuit the neutral wires connected to a common neutral terminal could be included for clarity. - 'Just an idea.
I am only familiar with PIR in the US. Some of our products allow for permanent lights on by toggling the power witch to the PIR. So no special wiring needed. Easy Peasey.
Yes some PIRs sold in the UK have that option - I don't know if they are better now but they used to be prone to turning on permanently if there was a short power outage - and as they were often used (before LED floodlights) with 500W halogen floods that could be quite expensive if you were away.
Rowing machine or bike for cardio/warming up (Opitional/depending on space). Free weights, dumbbells & barbells, EZ curl bar, chin up bar, adjustable bench, gym matting, squat/bench stands. That should give you a half decent setup for weight training.
Hey Tom just curious to know , when you make changes to the wiring like here , do you label the new wires and all that or do you just remember everything ? Cause I don't think I could . Cheers mate 👍.
3:44 Definitely water not heat - dark grey/black deposits.
Yep there were two cables coming in the same opening, no way to make the grommet seal. Also, that nice white connector on the camera comes with an IP66 seal, I always use it outdoors.
Also missing the connector cover that comes with the cams...
Yeah... I used self amalgamating tape on mine, belt and braces. Also I really think those pass-through (EZ RJ45) are asking for trouble, even the ones that have caps. The RJ45 with a load bar/bridge bar are just as quick to make off.
Never had a problem with EZ-RJ45, but I do always mount them so condensate won't fill up the receptacle even if the seal breaks.
I would avoid those pass through connectors. Bare copper on the end is more likly to corrode if exposed to damp conditions than the gold plated connector. Also you shouldn't be crimping RJ45 connectors onto solid cable as they are not designed for this.

When doing rj45 plugs, get yourself a proper tester, it has saved me 10 fold in time, every crimp stick tester on it if ok no going back and get a tester that has Poe voltage on it just to confirm voltage is good.
I used scissor lifts in rail working on rolling stock, we had two that were 'normal' and two with drop sides to access roof equipment. rule was if working with a dropped side you had to harness, if not then free reign to work without. Normally we worked without and just had the basket a little bit lower....
In all of your diagrams, you drew the lights as a series circuit - which is confusing. Maybe for clarity it would be better to include the neutral and draw them as a proper parallel circuit? ('No need to include the CPC.)
Why the neutral only goes the the PIR and then to the lights doesn’t really play a roll in switching (for lights) unless you have smart switches then you need a neutral at the switch
@@kallumnorman9825 If drawing the lights in a parallel circuit the neutral wires connected to a common neutral terminal could be included for clarity. - 'Just an idea.
Yeah, I couldn't believe that diagram was accurate, no way are they wires all in series!?
it's an earth wire or ground. has been for decades and always will be, regardless of what people try to rename it.

Is it just me or does Tom have a touch of Jeremy Clarkson in his mannerisms and delivery on camera? (I love JC btw so that’s not an insult lol)
I love the new style of video. Keep it up mate 👍
Thanks, will do Tyler!
I am only familiar with PIR in the US. Some of our products allow for permanent lights on by toggling the power witch to the PIR. So no special wiring needed. Easy Peasey.
Yes some PIRs sold in the UK have that option - I don't know if they are better now but they used to be prone to turning on permanently if there was a short power outage - and as they were often used (before LED floodlights) with 500W halogen floods that could be quite expensive if you were away.
I really love the idea of a man confined in a small space at my command, love, 1 0f the 1.2%
Reolink is pretty good ive been impressed by them
Nagy warfare has been declared 😁😁😁
Rowing machine or bike for cardio/warming up (Opitional/depending on space). Free weights, dumbbells & barbells, EZ curl bar, chin up bar, adjustable bench, gym matting, squat/bench stands. That should give you a half decent setup for weight training.
Hey Tom just curious to know , when you make changes to the wiring like here , do you label the new wires and all that or do you just remember everything ? Cause I don't think I could .
Cheers mate 👍.
On the scissor lift question, you don't have to wear one in UK, but here in Ireland you have to wear it always!
