Electrical Fault Finding - Surprising Find - UK electrics

[@davidryan6616]

Keep up the great work, and look after yourself and your family.

[@ForTheBirbs]

Good stuff Sir Nick! You're looking much more like old self. Am so glad you're doing ok. Cheers

[@dave_listener]

Nick I totally get it. The mind is like a computer and sometimes needs a reset. You have gone through a lot recently. Also a lot of changes. The stuff with your friend, Adam spending less time with you. Plus the massive goal of reaching 100K subs. That is a lot to deal with. Life changes, we have to adjust, sometimes it just take a little while. So good to see you back at it and back on top of it.

[@steveaddie3461]

Had problems with the same GO PRO handle and had to do a factory reset on it and now works fine.

[@DontTestJJ]

Would be good to see more fault finding Vids, they are educational and interesting to watch !

[@willmartin9165]

You should look into getting a go pro clip for your hat to do POV's and would make it easy to show what your doing

[@ADAMBRADY04]

It would be brilliant if you manage to get a full garden fix I liked what you did with the boat. Any more coming from the huge rewire you done where you done your back in doing the outdoor sockets would love to see how that ends up as you mentioned power to a pier if I remember for his boat

[@christopherhume8896]

Yes, we were taught to drill a drain hole in situations like that. Eventually water will find a way in and it needs a way out.

[@jasonbowe9767]

Tidy van, tidy mind All the best mate

[@mylesie8078]

Up and down days can be weeks too. fair play to you you get threw alot. Don't be to hard on yourself 😊

[@karlmudd9966]

Hi Nick, love your content, I would love to see a more in depth tool video, all the different sets/brands you use 🤔

[@ShahRah-rf6we]

Hello NICK. I like your set up of the unit garage. Can you make a video how to set up one and cost of running a storage garage and etc pls thanks.

[@chrissharpe2106]

Nick mate, replace the heat damaged socket with MK Logic. They seem to hold up to high draw long term better than most.

[@GothGuy885]

yikes! that much water in a light fixture is scary. great trouble shooting mate 😀

[@tmyersf4]

As an adhd mind myself I do struggle with organisation and time management. I think lack of energy is the biggest issue so diet and sleep are critical.

[@therealdojj]

Get the little lever key and stick it on your bunch of keys 👌

[@joeds3775]

I find these all the time. Exterior lights and exit sgns...

[@elitekillerish]

I think fish key is in the Outside emergency light swimming around

[@mauserkk98]

So it's the old water in the outside E3 light ,so much for there monthly function test ....

[@craigevans9617]

I'd love to know how to find an electrician in my area. How would you do it? Pick a random city and try and find one given what you know to look for and avoid.

[@emm1285]

Whats your take on ip rating and drainage holes on fittings? Yay or nay?

[@mikeevans1355]

Got sick of looking for my fish key so decided to put a hole in one and added it to my van keys 👌🏻

[@robinhadley]

I honestly think you need another apprentice. Someone to bounce off and talk too.

[@stephencarter6634]

I was just about to write the same thing 👍

[@anthonybragg]

@@stephencarter6634 I don't think the relationship/gell he has with Adam would be the same although there was the other lad Ben?

[@darrencoyle3290]

I was thinking the exact thing all the way through this video, You are missing Adam ..

[@martinodriscoll5158]

You are showing signs of depression, see your doc, wish you well

[@tanner93yess]

Nick, when is the velocity sleeve it being released? I want one 😂

[@MarcusNailor]

Ooo, looking forward to an EV install vid! 😁

[@mfx1]

Fit EV rated sockets for electric heaters, they're spec'd for a much higher duty cycle than standard sockets.

[@cputilitysolutions]

Hey dude i can imagine it's not easy going from working with someone to working on your own, it's a big change. It'll take a while for it to become the new normal 👊🏾

[@enochabban8086]

Hi am Enoch from Ghana, am interested in loop testing values in all earthing arrangements

[@sergiofernandez3725]

Nick. Have you seen how Tool Monster are treating Mike Page AkA Residual Current?

[@pauliboo22]

Go back to the beginning, you used to film by sticking a GoPro to your head and doing a POV - that would be a great way to show fault finding, perhaps get a sponsorship with the new Insta 360 action cam? It doesn’t need to be a polished video, just want you see.

[@ashleypope7781]

How is working without a roof rack? Ladders etc?

[@NBundyElectrical]

Yeah all good mate, barley use them to be honest

[@Bob_Burton]

Why would the socket at Nanny Pat's get overheated and burn like that even if she is leaving the heater plugged into it turned on all day ?

[@justme5384]

My guess is that the plug in the heater is bad, and it gets hot and radiates onto the socket

[@Bob_Burton]

@@justme5384 Whatever is causing the heating needs to be fixed before something serious happens

[@tobysherring1369]

It's a very old socket - I'd say it's at least 20 years since you could buy those. The springs holding the pins eventually lose their grip and connections work loose, causing overheating. But it got me thinking of solutions: if Nanna fiddles with timers and they end up on 24/7, I would put a timer and contactor in a locked/secure location, to control outlets to each heater. Possibly a 20a switch or just a flex outlet at each heater, with each protected by a 10a or 16a RCBO. Or new, top quality, plug and socket for each heater. Set the timer to switch off for a few hours overnight and midday. Could also install a thermostat with the timer and contactor, so overall temperature is controlled and the heaters cycle on and off even if she fiddles with the inbuilt thermostatic controls. Ideally you would put in panel or storage heaters with locked controls, or get a grant to install an Air Source Heat Pump to re-use the old ducts. Concerned about safety, trip hazards and electricity bills.

Hope you're good mate , are you missing working with Adam

Installing S plan and Y plan videos

[@mickblower]

Ring cameras??????? They can be a nightmare, if ONE neighbour complains about privacy issues, you have no choice, you have to decommission it, I learned the expensive way 🤯

[@Danhamer1988]

Nans house is on fire but got to get the earners in first gran you sit tight darling will get to you asap 🤣🤣🤣

[@wezhunter1700]

Get nana some proper central heating 😮

[@Ferrets_electric]

When’s the giveaway or have I missed it

[@apartmentswales]

Like to say I enjoyed the video, but watching you fault find the EL Circuit that was not true, it just clearly showed your lack of Testing Skills. Top tip - Have a walk through, looking for likely supplied points and any marks near to the fittings, next at the CU remove the LN & E from the Faulty Circuit, then Multi Meter across each Cable to establish the type of fault condition. Then find what you think is the half way point of the circuit and then drop down the fitting and remove ALL the LNE Cables and Test to find which are showing any faults, then back to the CU and again check to see if the fault is cleared, if all good as it may be, move on again to the EOL and again remove the LNE Cables and Test with your multimeter. By now things should begin to shed some light, the type of fault and where the fault is. Shame that your lack of experience never led you immediately to the outside EL especially as the Emergency Fire Door, should have jumped out at you as maybe having an outside light due to the location being off road with no street lighting. One to remember for the future, yes I can sit back in my armchair and smugly know all the answers, but I had 5, yes 5 decades in the Industry and was once as green as green. Mr Spence Eng

[@smoggydrones5664]

i think you need to work with someone, your missing Adam in a social way
