Mines not blocked and I ready had someone come and said nothings wrong😊

The bulbs are horrible and blind and hurt people on the road. They cause accidents. I hope you got rid of them.

Are the service stops just for preventing the hot and cold from becoming a cross connection ?

You forget the electrical tape!

I purchased a fish body pillow and had it drop shipped to my son-in-law. He’s an avid fisherman and I thought he’d get a kick out of getting it. I didn’t tell him about it so it would be a mystery to him. The photos of the product showed a person lying next to the fish pillow which depicted it to be nearly the length the person. After several months I didn’t get notice from the company that the product shipped and later found out that it shipped from China. I called my son-in-law and asked if he received a fish body pillow. He said yeah and wondered where it came from. The pillow was a cheap 10” long sorry excuse of a pillow. It looked like a carnival prize. The cost was just under $40.00. Cheap for a body pillow, expensive for a carnival prize.

Electrical codes limit the number of outlets.

Obviously this is American with those cheap blue boxes……. I don’t know if there is one general code to follow in the US, or does each states have their own code book? I live in Ontario Canada. We have the harshest electrical codes on the planet. IMO you are correct, but trying to explain to a laymen is always difficult. Especially explaining on KZbin is always problematic. But you are correct, adding a few outlets is not an issue; especially for a tv like I have seen you mention. And if your minimum code is #12 awg for general purpose receptacles, adding a few will not be an issue. The odds of all receptacles being in use at the same time on one circuit is extremely low.

I have a question for any garage door guys. My garage has an upstairs part that is at least 15 feet tall and my garage door is 12 feet tall, instead of having the door go on the top of the downstairs what if I cut a hole and had the door go though the floor/celling and be vertical upstairs when it was open? then I have the whole ceiling for storage and the garage door wouldn’t be in the way. I also don’t want to get a roll up door

Mine igniter is sparking just not lighting. I dont smell gas coming out. 😩 i tried using a long lighter to see and no gas. The other burners work tho.

butchered those cuts...

Cool wire stripper

I believe it's like 13 on a 20a. Theirs a rule in code stating recepticles are to be considered as 130 va or something around their

What a cool toy ❤

Thanks for showing how to install backwiring 🎉

I have a 4 way switch... how can I use it as a single pole

Dude when u put a cover plate on put the fucking screw vertical. Hate when people do this

You say 20 amps, but the outlet you are using is a 15 amp one.

I don’t have neutral cable can I use the ground ? 😊

After seeing your face bag video, I was curious about your DIY work. Stick with DIY ... I think. (Maybe a daytime/real job might be better.

Video begins at 2:30

In your comparison of Before and After, did you in inadvertently reverse the photos? Look closely...

220.14 (1) No less than 180 volt-ampres for each Volt- amps = watts Example 120V×20A = 2,400 watts 80% rule 2,400 × .8=1,920 1920÷180=10.66666 10 outlets per 20 amp circuit on 120 volts

Great video thanks for taking the time to make this

Technically they are (or become) outlets when something is plugged into them. Otherwise they are receptacles. And remember kids it’s more important that it works safely than if it works at all. ⚡️ 😑

Isn't the GFI outlet supposed/required to be the 1st outlet connection from the circuit breaker line ? Your mock-up board looks like it is AFTER a prior outlet ??

thank you, the is exactly the video I needed!

That install for this video was done horrible. Plate didn't cover your cut marks, used a cheap ass blue box, crooked outlet and didn't put the plate screw up and down. Hack hack hack!!!!!!!!

A 20 amp circuit with a 15 amp receptacl not right

Nice video. A couple of suggestions though. You didn't verify the power being off to the downstream panel. You also have other monitors already on several circuits, which I think may confuse people when their breakers' wiring doesn't resemble yours.

In a theoretical sense that's correct but in some states the code only allows a certain amount, say 10 items (overhead light,outlet, fan, etc), on each leg of a breaker.

Don’t take advice from a handyman in regards to doing electrical work.

HandydadTV you gave excellant, detailed instructions so we were able to fix our 30 year old washer. Thank you so much.

As I’ve gotten older, my skin has gotten drier so it’s crucial for me to make sure my skin is moisturized, especially my face. The wrinkles and blemishes that are to come ( a few are already present) are just a part of what happens in aging and that’s OK . I’m going to be 57 in a few days, but I must be doing something right because some people have told me when I’ve asked them how old they think I am ( when that type of conversation has come up, ) they’ll drop me down 10 to 12 years in age which I appreciate 😄 One big complement I guess I got was when I was with my son and we had just ordered food. He had walked away and I asked for a straw for my son and the lady said oh that’s your son thought you were his older brother. 😄 heck I’ll take that. I’ll take what I can get in the complement area Btw even though my hair is thinning, I don’t have much gray in it. That shows up mostly in my beard. If I keep that trimmed down, it helps 😊

Chamberlain has a opener that has a rail you put together too

I want to say as a garage door technician, I like Chamberlain better because they are easier to service.

You can put a lamp on all of them as long as they are not all on at the same time and the load is not over the circuit limit.

For a little bit of speed that you do gain is not worth it way to expensive.

🙏Thank you for this share, it did help a lot. I have various Sonoff devices all working successfully but this was a pain to set up like never before. After about one hour of fiddling it finally decided to connect in a weird way which differed from the two standard ones.

I think everything went well with his installation. And that the manual part of the motion detector light switch has to nominally stay in the "on" position, and then turns off automatically after a certain amount of time after one leaves the room, and on again when one enters the room. Or am I mistaken? 🤔

80% so on a 15a breaker you can have 12

everyone who is calling this outlets is not properly using the term right it is a receptacle outlet

This is a great video. I am glad someone took the time to explain how this all works together. Thank you!!

Replacing a regular outlet near the sink with a 20amp gfci outlet (circuit is 20amp). I followed these instructions and now my other outlets that draw power from this outlet do not have power. I checked multiple times to make sure line and load were correct. Also GFCI outlet reset button is not staying in when I turn power on and try resetting it. Can you help?

respectfully, i hear you, but doesn't every outlet and additional wire increase the resistance in the circuit?

Lol....adds capacity pal, that is why, we have 30, 40, and so on breakers, always check the total capacity of the panel 100, 200, 400A

Then smart switches must require 120 volts to work, because they require 120 volts to work. Seems like the UK uses a smart switch that doesn’t need a neutral and they use diodes and a capacitor to create a neutral?

The upright posts in the centre on gable ends are referred to as King's posts, if you had them on the other rafters they would be referred to as queen's posts.

I wish I had a way to express strongly enough just how much frustration you saved me. THANK YOU!
