Real tidy! It's amazing to me how much you know, Doug....electrical, dry wall, building, electronics, mechanics, roofing, wiring, growing....and you are still so young! Once you said you grew up in New York....so, it just shows all isn't bad from NY!

Again u have taken what is generally an intimidating task and broken it down to “can do” instructions. This is what has kept me tuned in from the beginning. I have learned how to do things and the confidence that comes is amazing. Thank u guys for ur teaching style.

Wiring looks good, nice and neat. Now you can have a fan or two while you work. 😊

Really important work done precisely by an expert. Electricity scares me but getting to know the step by step process makes it understandable. Thank you for your videos.

The panel looks great! It's nice that you'll be able to add an outlet to run a fan, battery charger for your tools, or the fridge for cool drinks! It's great!

Wiring is such a tedious time consuming job BUT you do such a neat job of it that it is enjoyable to watch. Whoever gets to live in that mobile will be so happy you have done things so well, so neat and all with safety in mind! ❤

Square-D is actually out here by me here in Kentucky. I know the label used to say Florence Kentucky. But that was 1980s. Now I don't know. I know they have a plant in Lexington or Louisville. As for that breaker box. That's the most beautiful, neat organized box I've ever seen. A lot of boxes are just a mess. Wires all over the place. Crammed in there.

Just an FYI to consider for your next remodel - there are plastic structured wiring panels in several different sizes which I use because the wireless router can be installed inside the panel and there is no metal to interfere with the signal. I always get the largest panel I can to accomodate the modem, router, surge protecter, and wiring manifolds. The smaller panels can just get too crammed. Good work...enjoying your videos.

@diyfferent 2 ай бұрын

I know, but I like metal because it does help cut down on the emf. I did consider one of the plastic cases because I know we may sell the home someday and other people may want an RF transparent case for their wifi. But ultimately we decided to just do what we wanted. We don't use any RF wireless devices in our home.

Hi Doug and Eevee, I'm in awe every time I see electrical work done. I'm blown away of the technological advances. It never ends, it's like every day there is something new. Wow!!! I'm amazed. Thank you for having the patience to show us even though it's over my head. Lol. It's entertaining nonetheless. Wow!!!

Those boxes from Square D are a pain to build . I worked at Square D in my town. Wiring those from the back with a very small area to work in is horrendous. But we have to have them. I love that you are taking all precautions with your build. Great job.

Everything looks great , neat and tidy! I never knew they made surge protectors to go into the breaker box itself, I thought the grounding wire did that? Oh wait I forget this is a trailer not sure if that still is the same, grounding wire? Ahh learning something new everyday! :) Bless you and your family, stay cool and hydrated out there!

@lorriebirdwatcher7778 2 ай бұрын

Looks like you did an amazing job on the electrical! Even though I don't know much about it. My husband was an electricians apprentice back in the day....but changed careers early on. I've grown up in t he south , and live in coastal Georgia...it's not so much the heat as is the humidity. I grew up not having air conditioning for years, and even as adults many years without. But I do appreciate it especially in my senior years. Keep up the good work! Peace and Blessings!

Nice work Doug, neat and workman like. As for data cables. I would suggest running a CAT6 cable to each bedroom, the living room and the kitchen. Likewise, a coax cable to each bedroom and the living room. Finally, a CaT6 to the master bedroom for telephone. Finishing out the breaker box was my least favorite thing as an electrician. Never could get it as neat as I wanted.

How did you know that I needed to see how to wire up a electrical panel!?! Did you read my mind or something, Doug!?! LOL!! I guess great minds really do think alike! LOL!! This is definitely one of ya'lls videos, that I'll have to watch over and over again, at least until I'm able to mine completed. LOL!! Thank you for sharing it, I really appreciate it!! Much Love and Hugs to you both and the kiddos!! ❤❤❤❤

I just learned that a lot of the newer homes have these structured media panels installed. That's one of the things I love about the work you guys do. You install things that make everything easier and even things that ( to me) are fun. Like the coffee maker you installed in the other trailer that was connected to the water. Unless I misunderstood, at least that's what it looked like to me. But if that's what it was, it's convenient and fun. If it wasn't a coffee maker connected to the water, whatever it was, it still looked convenient.🙂 I wish you guys a nice cool evening in front of an ice cold fan! Bye kids 👋 Have fun!😊

Would be awesome to run some 1” conduit out the bottom of the media box through to under the mobile home. That would make it super easy to run a cables later. Real future proof.

You do such a neat job on the installation of the wiring. July and August are the hottest months down in Florida. It had to be so miserable. Hopefully you can get a fan on soon!🥵

When I wire a house I usually use the smoke detectors and use pigtail light sockets for lights and wiring the refrigerator and hallway outlets to plug in power tools.
