Ok BOOMers! Just make sure to do this kind of electrician work, consult with your local regulations and licensed specialists before setting your house on fire! I might be missing things here or there in my process... hopefully not!!

How the fuck is this 4 days ago
I love how he went through the trouble of testing it and when the test failed he still went ahead anyways.
I love how almost nothing can trip these breakers, yet every rental property in the US will somehow trip when you plug your phone in for more than 3 seconds.
It’s a slow trip breaker type with a normal max load of 30, intended for starting compressor motors or hvac applications which draw up over 90amps during startup for a second.
Regular user 20amp circuits use a faster trip breaker to keep the safety break down closer to 20, add to that how most people are clueless as to how much power is being used on any given circuit until the breaker says it’s maxed. Pop!
(Which just means too many devices on that circuit)...plug things into a different circuit that’s not off when the breaker pops.
@SaturnX I've been under an exploding transformer, it's fucking scary.
AFCIs are touchy, but I'm ok with that inconvenience lol
Just get a 30A breaker for a 20A system. Problem solved.
It’s probably because half of the house is on one breaker lol
"It started burning while in the water! Let's do this again and longer!" This is great.
_He_ is great
"is this live?" * just fuckin taps it * 🤣
Taps the fuse panel like it's a microphone haha
Obvs😂😂😂
Like slightly tapping it would make it any less dangerous if it was live! XD
Yeah in theory it’s fine, if you get shocked for 1 second you have a high chance to be fine. Unless your muscles contract around the wire then you can’t let go of the live wire and you’re f*cked and crispy
That's actually a fairly accurate representation of how your average electrician works, including the "not turning the breaker off" part. They get very desensitized to randomly getting zapped, often to the point of recklessness. (Source: studied to be one, couldn't take the anxiety ;) Still sometimes tap potentially live parts, but not before checking with tester/meter first. Got zapped by a FULL BRIDGE RECTIFIER once, never again.)
That explosion scared the crap outta me...😂💥
Hahaha same
i was expecting something to do boom but got freaked out like sht anyways
By this point I'm used to things exploding whenever he turns anything on.
7:07 is the most relatable thing for any home improvement project.
"I would turn off the house breaker but then who's going to reset the microwave clock?" I feel that
My microwave clock always says 00:00. I have other clocks.
Just flip the breaker again at midnight.
@@SoLaR27 Nikola Tesla is proud of you
People use the Microwave Clock in the age of multiple Cellphones?
My girl has a nerve about clocks that arnt in close sync, every time the power goes out I have to do the ritualistic dance setting the oven, microwave, and coffee maker to perfect (sub 2 second) sync. She thinks I'm the boyfriend of the year, but really I jjust like pressing buttons.... Yes, we are weird, and a blast at parties.
Famous last words: 'Is this live?' *touches it*
I can easily tell if a wire is live or not, by touching it. Do I miss something?
Is it live?

I'm an electrician in Germany. It's always interesting how the house wiring looks like in other countries.
Gibt es diese Art von Kabel bei uns?
Won't you agree this kind of work is actually illegal to do without proper license in some (European) countries?
@@mussalo Of course I can speak only for Germany. Much of the work he does, can legally be done here in Germany by any person, like routing the wires, installing the switch and heater.
NOT allowed is to open the distribution box (fuse panel), install breakers, connect the wires and switch the whole installation on.
Installations in Germany have to be approved by a licensed specialist, and they are the only ones who are allowed to place an electrical installation into service.
So you could theoretically do almost any installation and just leave the wires hanging nearby the distribution box. Then call an electrician who would install new breakers, and connecting the wires.
BUT: Since licensed electricians have to give warranty to the installation, most of them wouldn't approve installations made by customers themselves.
@@Helli__ Sadly, many of the installations I've seen from "professional" electricians in recent years are worse than what I (a hobbyist) build when I have to do it quick and dirty. The German word for that is: Pfusch.
@@CyberlightFG Habe ich ehrlich gesagt hier noch nie gesehen. Hier würde man eben eine Mantelleitung im Installationsrohr verlegen.

As a Journeyman Electrician, this video makes me extremely happy.
I often have to Google some things you talk about, and somethings just go over my head, but seeing you essentially do my job and struggling a bit was a wonderful feeling. Makes up for you understanding the technical side of things so much more than I do.
Plus all the other videos involving you working with power tools... I've lost a bit of my hair and fingernails watching them, but also get a kick from them! Although I do hope most of them are purely comedic, because I'm a little surprised your hands are still intact and not completely scar tissue...
I love what you're doing, and am grateful to have you as a resource and entertainment. Thank you, for everything you've been doing through the years.
Never got involved in patreon before, but you're a good reason to start. Hell, with what I learn from you, I may just become a better electrician, which might generate a better paycheck, which just means subscribing to you would pay for itself!

"From a kilometer away, you can barely notice it." Sounds like me when I do anything.
i think this is the first video electroBOOM has ever posted without getting hurt
Despite what it looks like on video, the dude knows his shit.
There are different categories of breakers for how much current you need for them to trip. Most houses in Australia have a C type circuit breakers installed in which need 7.5 times the rated current to trip instantly.
These breakers pop instantly on shorts (very large currents), and quite slowly on something like 2x current. Basically, the breaker needs to pop before the wire melts, so 10 seconds at 2x rated current may not pop it.
Hey you. Go finish that giant bandsaw
They also have to accept the inrush current being pulled from a motor. Looking it up, it can be 20x the amps on initial half cycle (very short) and then 4 to 8 x for the first few seconds until the motor is happily running. The resistive loads he was using, in his test, and for the final application should never go over their running current that is listed, and always just pull the same currents any time they are on.
exactly. they are there to protect from drawing for extended periods of time loads that are higher than the rated draw of the normal household. like in germany we have 16 amp breakers and 230 volt grids. that means an outlet or better one surcuit (where really every outlet should be on it's own circuit which sadly isn't always the case) will give you a max wattage of 3680 watts per outlet or surcuit if multiple outlets would happen to be on the same. but that is really short peak draws. the standard cables used shouldn't really have permanent draw of 3500+ watts to not heat up inside the wall and cause a fire. happens a lot since idiots try to daisy chain socket strips while plugging tons of shit that draws a lot. even happened in my uncles stepmothers house. she rented out the upper floor and some genious installed the kitchen himself. one day it did't work anymore. luckily it didn't cause a fire however he apparently thought it was a good idea to have literally all kitchen electronics including fridge, dish washer, washing machine etc. on one bloody outlet while daisy chaining multiple cheap crap socket strips between the cupboards and the wall cause he was to incompetent to wire up more outlets and to cheap to call a professional to do it. didn't fry the wiring but the socket strips themselves. he found a smoldering mess of rubber and plastic with some copper wires behind it when it stopped working.
i mean i'm no electrician but i understand regulations, safety and the matter enough to install a lamp and understand what is going on. that's why i'm comfortable installing a lamp or something myself but i wouldn't touch an oven for example. some of them draw 5000 watts+ and that is far beyond the usual electronics. i mean i also understand how it is done to an extend but i wouldn't touch it myself but get a professional electrician. even more cause they install those all the time and if they need to run new wires and connect them they will do it clean and not the mess i'd produce. but also am i not responsible this way. hell even if i fuck up installing a lamp and someone gets shocked i'd be responsible. luckily 230 volts 16 amps won't kill you. i shocked myself before (praise the fi-god) and it zaps you real good. a healthy person will be okay but someone with a heart condition or something like that might really die. now ovens are not always but sometimes above the specs of our normal wiring and breakers so sometimes run on 2 breakers to have more amps available. that's a whole nother story of zapping. i once helped a buddy move and his uncle insisted on we don't need an electrician to install the oven. well we needed one. that retard managed to zap himself and fly 5 meters through the entire kitchen. and this guy in fact had a heart condition, bypass and a pacemaker. luckily he was fine but he gave us quite a shock aswell. we thought he just died for a moment. always the wildest stories when noobs tinker with electronics lol.
An engineer should know about trip curves for fuses/CBs. Mehdi makes me wonder sometimes.
@@robj4078 I think Mehdi does this on purpose, just to get peoples attention. He clearly knows how to do this stuff, his job looks at least as good as any professional, besides missing the measure twice, cut/drill once rule.
Mehdi's state after every electric connection : Schrodinger smile :):
It just shows how skilled he is to know how to hurt himself without killing himself 😂👏👏👏
I come here every now and then to watch this. Pure satisfaction. Clean work. Definetly how all electricians should work. (Apart from tapping the nail to see if it's live.)
4:44 a very safe way to check if it's live or not. Take some notes guys
It's OCD, I do the same thing, of course after checking that I'm not grounded somewhere!
😂

"Lets test the breaker to see if it works"
**Tests breaker**
**It doesn't work**
"Ah, I'm sure this is supposed to be like this"
@Brady Prince you don't understand how circuit breakers work. if he had made a dead short it would have popped instantly. the purpose of circuit breakers is to prevent the wires from melting, not to break the second the rated current is passed. if it was, you'd never be able to turn on a vacuum cleaner since the inrush of inductive loads is several times the circuit rating.
@@SuperAWaC Thanks! I wondered why there was this huge delay.
@@SuperAWaC I have that problem with my chop saw, it kills the breaker the moment I turn it on. Solution: I put a long extention cable betwen the saw and the socket. Cable resistance limits the inrush current and stops the breaker from tripping.
@@andreasu.3546 Make sure the extension cord is rated for that current and always use it completely unwound.A wound up extension cord will overheat.You could also make a soft starter circuit,like passing the current through a 6 Ohm resistor until your chop saw turns on then bypassing the resistor.
@@mernok2001 Your're right, reeled cable can get very hot. Back in apprentice days, they showed us a safety video where the inner section of the cable on the reel had actually molten. Big fun when you want to unwind it later and potentially get to touch the, now exposed, conductors.
However, that cable I use for my saw is not on a reel, it's just a long cable, normally used with an electric lawn mower.
That aside, heat probably wouldn't be a big problem in my case, even with a reeled cable. I'm so slow with my amateur woodworking (measure twice, cut once etc.), that saw gets a duty cycle of 10% maybe, and it never runs for more than a few seconds at a time...
My first job out of college 2,000 years ago was designing residential circuit breakers. We tested and calibrated breakers using low voltage, usually from a buck/boost transformer tapped for 3 volts. If i remember correctly, according to the UL/CSA rules a circuit breaker in that frame size was only required to trip within 60 seconds at 200% rated current. I think it had to trip within one hour at 135% UL at the time allowed up to 5ma leakage current with the breaker tripped so we used that to drive a LED through the load. That was a great job, really enjoyed blowing up breakers!
I didn't know that to see a electrician doing his work could be this relaxing
Oh man. When that shower head erupted into flame like it was made of flash paper, I completely lost it. Great stuff!
What Satan showers with.

@@ashers_workshop bruh
5:40 He made a reverse shower, thats so awesome
Mehdi, you should look at the different types of breakers. A, B, C, D, etc.. For example, type B breakers trip at 3 to 5 times their rated ampacity. So a 10A breaker would trip at 30-50A.
I don't believe that the US (and Canada) follow that standard, at least for residential systems. I've never been able to find any residential breakers with those ratings in the US. Like most things, we obstinately march to our own tune--and take Canada along for the ride.

"IS THIS LIVE?"

He's not touching anything that's grounded, from what I can tell. Even if it were hot he wouldn't have gotten shocked. Old time electricians will often check if a circuit is hot by grounding their thumb and touching the live wire with a finger tip. Some have killed their nerve endings and have to lick their fingers to tell.
@@xtremegamer4696 He's standing on ground, thus closing the circuit by touching anything live. The high resistance would've lowered the amps quite a bit so there is no way it could've burned or harm him in any thermal way. So if he only touches the nail for a blink of a second he would've been fine because the heart wouldn't been exposed too long to the alternating current. Still would've felt the shock though :D Hurts like a sucker.
