Electrical 101: Basic Wiring Knowledge

I’m gonna explain this but if you don’t get it then nvm. Nice.

How long did It take you to get this good I’m about to start my first day of school and have no prior knowledge whatsoever 😭

Do you get any help

MC in wooden studs… ya fuck that

A split, a pig tail, a jump.

Black...hot, ungrounded conductor, single phase, energized, live.

I got some of it if not all thanks.

Jesus loves you

mans works hourly

"For these wires you hook them to these wires and don't make those wires explode." . . . thank you for the help.

And today I more or less learned what a home run is, something that connects directly to the breaker.

Son of a Bitch, you just show what shu did but not how to do it, you are an Ahole..

Hi guy some one please tell me the different between home depot 2 gauge thhn copper wire and Lowes wire. They both made by southwire but why does lowe list it can only carry max 110 amp while home depot listed on their site 125 amp max. If I don't remember wrong, I think in store even said 130 amp. I plan to run 25-28 feet inside conduit over head inside garrage ceiling. 125 circuit breaker box. Thanks

I have my fan running and my LED recessed lights on. When I turn off the fan, on it's own switch, my LED lights also turn off momentarily (and then come back on). Why??? I have a switch for my fan, and a switch next to it for my LED recessed lights in my bedroom. Any insight would be appreciated.

Appreciate that

I like having my wire nuts facing up so if water ever gets in it won't sit in and corrode it

This is really helpful you did a great job explaining everything👍🏼

every one of those home run boxes jumping to another power box are connected one and wired one by one ? and leads back to the power box ? or some of them you have found ways to connect them if they seperate wired to the power box, which is apart from the other ones in the garage?

Wtf am I watching? You got me lost. I’ll search elsewhere

Why metal boxes and MC on wood studs?

Nice job.

I’m curious why you used MC cable instead of NM sheathed cable. Is MC more cost effective?

Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Much appreciated.

About to start an apprenticeship, caught most of this but I can tell you have far more experience than I do. Got 4 years of school ahead and I hope I do it right.

Why MC cable?

Do u need to go to tech school to be an electrician?

Black wire = Hot, White wire= Neutral, Green wire= Ground.

This is very confusing...not a 101

Simple and adequate for the purpose

What is the height of your panel,What the code says. and switches

This was miserable to listen to as someone trying to get into this

residential electricians got er made

Thank you for your video, simplicity is always key when grasping new information. I learned a lot: Homerun will be “home,” tie like colors, ground, black, then hot. All boxes feed off homemade. I especially enjoyed your explanation of the wires coming from the top of the box. Wonderful job. Have a great week. Peace to you as well.

Thankyou for takeing your time out. God bless.

You're an awful teacher dude

Who let the student teach ?

Horrible video

Bro … WHAT BUDDY

You lost me on "Box" 😅

Thankyou for showing your work.

Your not the best explainer but I agree the video 😁

Ummm ummm dork

are there any videos similar to this explained in a more clear way?

This guy definitely knows what he is talking about but I think he just isn’t the best at explaining it

Why cap the gots?

Dude wtf am I slow

Did not help. 101 nope

As a UK electrician, American electrics is very different.

Where is this? Every residential video that I have seen is using Romex and plastic boxes. I like the idea of using metal boxes and mc cable, but it's usually considered too expensive and more labor intensive. You get what you pay for. Is it required there or is it a customer request?

My brain was electrocuted 🤯🤯🤯
