TIDYING UP A COMPLETE MESS OF WIRES - Electrician Life

[@radders261]

Reuben is so lucky to have such a wonderful appentice!

[@richardlarkin4325]

Quallified spark who doesn't understand switching!! Hopefully this humbles KZbin sparks who constantly put down lads who was there before them. Nothing wrong with asking for help advice, but don't constantly slate the workman before you. Respect for Cory saying he asks for Johnny advise. We don't know all it all the time, but we install to the best our knowledge and training

[@stevejagger8602]

Quintic switches offer an effective solution to what otherwise would have been mission impossible. Good work.

[@daron8982]

if the power goes off though, the owner would have to call an electrician and who knows when the electrician arrives and if he knows how to pair the switches again!

[@Alchemetica]

This is a great set of episodes on the wiring of "this old house". Enjoyable to watch and learn from Cory & Ruben, I am looking forward to the final fix episode. If only there were electricians like Artisan in my city in Oz. Here the general modus operandi for most trades is a clean up (if at all) far from the standard shown in the videos and all work on the principle of the path of least resistance, which often ends with the completed work being a real eyesore.

[@jeffreyconway3389]

Once again great video guys! Hats off to Cory for his great teaching style.

[@RichardArblaster]

Great job, I think Cory would make a great tutor when he decides to hang up the tools 😎

[@derekhealey4743]

😂🤣 had many a head scratching day myself, love your videos doing a great job 👍.

[@philipsmith0752]

good job done Cory and Reuben , he coming along well ., with good tutoring from Jordan , Cory and Lee , Reuben has a good start

[@kirkridgers6199]

Cory, feed and switch wire at the intermediate position will work the same as it would if it were at the two way switch position.

[@rossthompson1635]

Ha ha, yes it does. I even drew myself a diagram to prove it, after comments on the first video.

[@liamfenwick6320]

Would you connect the feed into l1 and s/l into l2 of same side of intermediate switch in this case?

[@rossthompson1635]

@@liamfenwick6320 Yes, it is exactly the same as putting them in L1/L2 at one of the ends - you are connecting to the same wires, just further along.

[@Marcel_Germann]

It depends on the wiring method. There are two versions, both permitted, but the feed on the intermediate will only work on one of both methods and not on the other one.

[@jamesdyas542]

@@Marcel_Germann 2 way conversion circuit. Anyone remember it being called that?

[@MrBobmeadows]

Love the Quinetic switching system - just 'pair and go'.

[@chaseohara4781]

It's interesting because what you call a two way switch, we call a three way switch in North America (because it has three wires), and what you call an intermediate switch, we'd call a four way (again because it has four wires). So funny how terminology for what is essentially the same thing can vary so much.

[@marklehmann5867]

100% artizan be doing training content as I'm sure they would have loads of people sign up to it with Cory doing the teaching.

Great video !

[@ForTheBirbs]

Nice work guys!

[@azioazio6461]

what brand electrician pants do you have?

[@steveb1856]

To tip always put the Quinetic receivers somewhere easy to get at, occasionally they can loose pairing and need a reset and re-pairing, don’t want to be having to crawl into tiny spaces to do it!

[@larathydo]

What is the name of the song that’s playing ~15:30 in the video?

Great video thanks again for your video 📹 😀 now living in the Philippines 🇵🇭 😀 by the beach ⛱ no more work for me haha 😆 😉 😄 😀 😜

[@sinanozcg250]

the think that ı dont understand what happen to old cables when u replace with the quinetic switch?

[@pn8902]

You need to get a tone tester to trace cables

[@kianpaul7325]

Can we have a tour of reubens tool bag

[@matthewlizzio7431]

Please tell me what pants those are 😂

[@lkm5462]

Why not use a tone generator , unless in metal conduit?

[@johnathanfranco4197]

In America, Texas at least, we call those receivers “power packs”.

[@iScoTT29]

Why did yous not install SWA instead of going to the bother of kopex?

[@samuel2j213]

Cost of cable at the minute is insane

[@jamesdyas542]

@@samuel2j213 think it’s also to prevent rodent damage suppose with swa they could still chew at the outer sheath although my mate at Rexel says good quality cable should have chemicals in the plastic so they don’t like the taste of it.

What is the average second year pay for an apprentice electrician?

[@kobirelf97]

It all depends on your age but apprentices have a standard wage but it's also done to the company what they want to pay look on the government website for the minimum apprenticeship wage

[@pwaelectricalltd29]

How did the quinetic switches look against the others on the grid. Are they noticeably different?

[@steveb1856]

They are exactly the same in appearance but are momentary click rather than on off, you can get either MK grid or Varilight

[@pwaelectricalltd29]

@@steveb1856 cheers Steve.

[@the_real_hislordship]

Just wondering... Has Ruben had a shock from AC yet? Cory you must have?

[@billsbasementworkshop1902]

Question for Cory. Do you think that Quinetic will be the death of house rewires? Would be nice to get some input on this.

[@JayTheSparky]

Wouldn’t have ever thought so the cost of one switch and receiver compared to the cost of traditional wiring is much higher. It offers a great solution for instances like this or when you need say the lighting rewired in a property but don’t want the extra cost of plastering/ filling chases and decoration etc. How ever standard wiring will always be preferred if you have the option. But this is a great product for certain situations & are great to use. Even got some in my own house.
