How to be an electrician. 1st & only lesson, criticise everyone that has worked in the house before you. No further lessons needed ;-)

[@alltechinbox]

It's all kicking off in the comments section...

[@haroldgreen1425]

Retired commercial electrician here. Today schooling for an electrician takes five years along with working for at least four years to get your license as a journeyman electrician. At that stage you're ready to start learning how to do real electrical work. It often takes a drafting course or two just to learn how to read blueprints. I've worked on polar cranes inside nuclear reactor domes. I've run bus duct up 73 floors in skyscrapers. I've piped and wired hundreds of buildings over forty years in the trade. Even worked on off shore drilling rigs. It all takes time and dedication to learn the skills needed. It's not something you can learn from watching a few videos. My kids watched me build and wire our first home and even as teens they learned enough to wire a house. Yes it's simple enough for children to do. Not so much commercial work. However home handymen should be aware of the dangers involved in doing electrical work themselves, both to themselves and to their homes if not done properly.

[@Calymos]

wait, so i'm not a licensed electrician now that i've watched this? damn!

[@roflepiclol]

'Let's see if I can kick this wasp out of the place' - this really had me laughing xD The cameraman really does manage to capture the beauty

[@DomCookDCstudios]

As always a great video. I was a bit surprised you put a wire on top of the rafter in the garage as very often these are used for storage and they could very easily get snagged or damaged. They certainly would in my garage

Fitted a load of Next light fittings to my sons new build home replacing pendants everywhere 10 or 11 of them, many different types. All well made, well wrapped and easy to install even then ones I had to remove pendant chains from or shorted pendant support cables. All came with push fit connectors so you can wire one side without having to support the light. Very impressed by them. Builder got some cudos by installing largish boards between joists just above plasterboard so firmly and easily attaching a variety of sizes of lights without needing a single plasterboard fixing was amazing. They lost all cudos with too much bare conductor in every ceiling rose and by not terminating any live cable in outside lights terminal boxes just cut cables coiled inside a cheap external box with pull off covers! Not clever. Many in reach of children. So a C2 fail at least I would say maybe a C1?

Left the trade 12 years ago with 16th edition due to a series of redundancies, is there any advice for getting back into the trade? Great videos, looks like you guys have a good laugh working together.

Totally professional Cory is a natural on camera. When you hear a about NHS doctors workers etc banging on about training for 7 years. People forget how long it takes to achieve your high standards. Well done Jordan you set the standards expected.

[@johng7787]

Enjoyable video. Could someone explain a little more about the connections in the 3 amp FCU to the lights as regards to the socket cable please. As I understand it goes to the supply side of the FCU and then 1.5mm T&E comes off the load side to the lights. How do the sockets get their power (brain block 😁 unfortunately) Many thanks John

Why are you using the fire rated d-line conduit clips if it's in a garage and not even a fire escape plus it's domestic as well??

[@HazaEgg]

so i really want to become an apprentice, but im worried if i find one, ill have to travel 1.5 hours or so really far out where the boss doesnt mind as hes used to it but if im having to travel far each day to different locations kind of find that daunting

[@Christopher_S]

Don't let that daunt you. 90 minutes really isn't that long, and to get experience, it really makes it worth while. Once you're fully qualified, you're able to pick from further options. If the travel is a cost issue, there are (or at least used to be many moons ago) options for help toward the cost.

[@pinchermartyn3959]

More of those explanations please.

[@mattmanslim]

Wow, looks like an unfinished new build that you’ve come to save the day on. I’ve watched so many of those shocking build standard videos that I’m wondering how many issues there are in that room!

[@GodmanchesterGoblin]

I guess it's in the regs, but could you explain (in a future video?) why you have conduit on the walls, but not in the rafters. My garage was wired around 1990 when the house was built, so no conduit is used. Should I consider getting this changed? Garage consumer unit was replaced around 2005 -2010. I understand that regs do not need to be applied retrospectively, but may where old wiring is modified because of new works.

[@GodmanchesterGoblin]

@PETER WILSON Thank you.

[@hfs83]

Thanks for your explanation, i keep meaning to look at my garage lights which we're done by the previous home owner (i think). They turn on and off at each switch but also kill the other switch in the process, so turn them on at the entrance to the garage then off at the garage door then the entrance does not work and vice versa.

[@urinecakes]

One of the 3 way switches is wired wrong.

[@JasperJanssen]

So what you’re saying is two switches, the lamp is only on when both switches are in a certain position, and if either switch or both are in the other position it’s off?

[@hfs83]

@@JasperJanssen that is correct.

[@JasperJanssen]

@@hfs83 it depends how it’s wired exactly what could be wrong, anything from a completely miswired installation to a single wire that has come loose. So… yeah, troubleshooting ahead.

[@adamsharp201]

@PETER WILSON delusional. 2 way switches that want to be 3 way. Dont be dumb

[@sega1182]

[@helmanfrow]

Yesterday on the 17th of July I commented "Sorry, what's a radial?". Today is the 18th of July and here you are answering the question in this video which was, incidentally, posted tomorrow on the 19th. I always wondered what the future would be like. Now I know. God, I love this timeline. Except I missed the part where you explained what a radial is. Unless it's just a branch circuit, in which case why not just call it that. Or tell me what it's called in Canadian Electrician. I looked it up. It's just a branch circuit.

[@artisanelectrics]

[@andrewsmancave]

What's point of the concrete blocks in that garage.. is this the standard of new builds.

[@shilks8773]

Would it not be better to have a Mini CU in the Garage to be able to separately isolate all the sockets in the Garage ? Nice to see a Dad and his Son working well together.

[@havoctrousers]

It's a 16A RCD protected feed to the garage for the sockets. Adding a fused spur off those sockets for the lights as they have is all that's needed. Adding another board would be total overkill.

[@gravydavie]

Yep, probably how I would have done it too to be honest. This way you have local isolation for your sockets and lights if need be.

[@thegrinch3691]

You said the neutral is in the switch, but then your drawing showed the neutral by passing the switch and going straight to the light?

[@Kingvideosish]

[@ayanlolamonsurudeen8212]

Hello, I like your job. I’m in UK, I study Electrical Engineering in my country Nigerian, And I have experience on electrical wiring.But I don’t have UK experience,Can you help me out?

[@herrtomas6729]

Is it right to use a switched connection unit as a light switch per se? A plate switch (MK's spec) is spec'd with 100,000 operations 'mechanical life' as it is designed for multiple switching in its life (they also spec number of operations for electrical life by load current). They don't spec the 'fused spur' with a lifetime for number of operations? Guess you'd not see too much of an issue in a garage as a low-usage area, but.....

[@joe2395]

I presume a light switch contacts are rated at 6A,a switch spur contacts are at least 13A ,the two lights are rated no more then 0.5A,so working out how many each switch will last on the number of times they will be turned on before they breakdown is completely irrelevant

[@lewis94uk]

@@joe2395 That and the switch maybe used 3-4 times a week as opposed to a hallway switch which would be like 10+ times a day.

[@herrtomas6729]

Electrical life is not a problem. I was querying mechanical life as manufacturer doesn’t quote it for this item.

[@havoctrousers]

To add an anecdotal data point, I've got some FCUs in a workshop that are used as light switches. They're operated every single day and haven't had an issue in the 30+ years since they were installed.

[@herrtomas6729]

@@havoctrousers I like that - don't make them like they used to!! My only point was really that when a manufacturer expects use for multiple operation (rather than just isolation), it is possibly why they do or don't rate number of operations. To be fair, is an 'isolator' the same as a 'switch'? Try getting a manufacturer to answer the question!! It's nice to spark a debate...

[@dave907shark]

Hi you could drop the neutral out of the board for that circuit and you can work on it without tripping the RCD. Also you may not have to earth both ends of the SWA but it’s good practise to terminate it properly with a gland.

[@mikethemask1525]
