i dont know about you but how long does that last during a power outage? without solar to charge it its no more then a whole house ups.

What good is that going to do. The sheetrock is already up. Now you got to plug it.

My dad made me become a electrician at 19 and now I’m 24 and this my second year making over 100k+ a year

BAD BOSSES CAN RUIN YOUR LIFE TOO

Why didn't you pull all the way through instead of splicing?

14:40 “this was definitely sort of a Fluke thing” I see what you did there 👀😂

I hope i can start a career in it completely lost but tired of 9-5

No, age means nothing!! If im not mistaken they have laws on the book that age discrimination is a big no no!! A person can work until they take their last breath!! Age aint nothing but a number!! Im a retired journeyman cable splicer/underground lineman and Im going back to the trade!!

lol why 🤦🏽‍♂️

Union plus doesn’t work with the carpenters union

If the wire slack is falling vertically - like if you are pulling them out of a J box in the ceiling, for example, you can put the handle of some Kleins around the wire and then throw some electrical tape around the handle so so it can’t come off. Basically the pliers will act as an anchor and keep the wires under tension so they don’t turn into a rat’s nest.

This is especially helpful if you have to pull THHN out of conduit to rework something, etc., with the intention of pulling it back in shortly thereafter. A traffic cone is also a good pick to throw the wire over and drag along the floor just like you’re doing with the bucket. We tend to have those around lifts in operational commercial settings where non-construction Normies are walking around.

Both, you and Legrand seem pretty "generous" if you know what I mean... wink wink

Just stop that stop that right now can I get three months of my life back ha ha ha ha

Applying for local 134 this Wednesday. We’ll see how long I’m on the waitlist if I get in at all

I love my T6-1000 but these are testers, not meters. I’ve been fooled with this meter on 24 VDC control circuits that were being pulled down causing a machine to shut down. A coworker has the 87V and we had to use that to get an actual accurate measurement of what voltage was truly present. My T6 now stays in my box and I run my 376 FC daily.

Same can be said for Automotive... except to get the top top pay . It seems you need to be a 1 trick pony at a high end dealership. Jaguar, BMW etc.. I heard if you are dedicated to ONE brand you can earn around 200k/year... ALSO you gotta suffer for about 1 year.. BUT don't be like me and work for 4 different dealer brands and hop from shop to shop, you will never be a top performer. Just some guy who can work on a lot of complex shit..

Noice

Totally agree it’s a game changer, everyone should throw out their T-5s and upgrade immediately and then hopefully Fluke will come out with a t-7 version with a ground contact contraption that is actually accurate

Those are the best strippers I’ve ever used. Love mine.

TLDR: How easy or complicated is it to move states as an apprentice and/or journeyman in the IBEW? I've wanted to move across the country for a while, but I have yet to commit due to a lack of personnel resources. I'm 30 struggled with significant health issues since I was 14; thankfully, I'm finally on the mend. Because of this, I still live with my parents. I'm extremely grateful to have been supported by them for years as I've tried my best to make my way through college while dealing with my poor health but I'm not getting any younger, college just isn't working out, and I'm desperate and hungry to get on with my life, start making money and no longer be a burden to my family. I'm still in the preliminary research phase, but I'm beginning to seriously think about shifting gears to becoming an electrition and trying to join my local IBEW. Any advice or encouraging stories are greatly appreciated!

Don't let age stop you if you really want to do it. I'm 42, was losing my mind sitting behind a desk all day, so I took the leap and now I'm 6 mths into my 1st yr as an apprentice. I also know a 51 yr old who's going into her 5th yr. I do wish I would've started when I was younger, but I probably would've thrown away the opportunity. Everything happens at the right time. Thanks for the video, very motivating.

Screws also loosen over time with vibrations

I’m 24 and sick of my dead end, $15 an hour warehouse job. I’m thinking about taking up an apprenticeship and i might go to ATL to seek one since I don’t know where to look out here in rural GA.

I’m 34 and have been working as a CW for the last month, was just accepted into the local 354 apprenticeship program last week. Your videos really helped me and my family make an educated decision about this career change, thank you. 🙏🏼

he forgot to say "results may vary"

New here, im wary trusting someone with "Troll" on the sweater

Hey madelelectrician, i want to be an Electrician apprentice process however, i have a left shoulder nerve injury and cant gully articulate over the head on the left side, any tips and do you think i should bring that up to anyone? I feel like if i did it wouldnt really help the interview process. Im not a puss and put in hard work, i just hope theyre willing to work with me a bit

Working on Class 8 trucks , I cut the nose plier off and milled the body . It often interfered in my work space .

Worked like a boss! Thanks for sharing!

Or u could just put a fat log fire starter in the outlet

J box hangin from a batwing with no helicopter or bonding. Hmmm .

brilliant. wish there was a RUclips when I was in the trade❤

hey steven i've been watching your videos for some time now. Do you have an email i can send a message to? Thanks

How many women are electricians?

Wow - who would have thought? Very interesting 😁

I happen to be a lifelong photographer, to make viewing easier on my iPhone I used a tripod attachment for my phone and raised it up for much easier viewing. Has anyone else found some hacks for view phone while using the Walabot? Guess could put double stick tape or adhesive Velcro on a cheap iPhone case? Thoughts?

JUST received my Walabot DIY 2. It connected to my iPhone quickly (~ 7-8 seconds) and calibration took about 10 seconds. I’m believe other reviewers that struggle in various situations don’t take time to calibrate completely. If you’re asking a tech device that requires calibration, prob not best to expect much accuracy if you’re not doing the calibration well. I highly recommend this wall stud finder. It found wooden studs and an electrical wire , that I wasn’t expecting, quickly & clearly. Just get it. Just one incorrect drilling cannot only destroy your results, but KILL YOU if you hit the wrong electrical source. Now you REALLY have to spend money! Lastly some people complain about the Walabot “marking or scraping” paint off interior walls. I agree the 2 strips of hard “plastic” would scratch surfaces, depending how hard you press into the wall. Walabot requires only slight pressure and to make things move more smoothly & less “damaging” for some users I applied 1 strips of 3M invisible tape with a little foldover tab for easy removal/replacement. It makes a big difference in scanning as well as protecting the device & walls.

If you got through algebra 1 in high school you can definitely get through the math electrician use

Quran 112

Still have the issue all back stabs suffer from and thats poor connection. Which means lost efficiency through thermal waste. Who cares if it doesnt back out if the wore still has poor connection.

What math do I need to know in order to be a electrician?

very skittish.

Its not worth is Edge outlets cost 12$ and regular ones cost 60 cents à piece

Fire starter!

He definitely made that look easier than it is lol. Dam screw just kept slipping.

Wooooow

Laughs in Australian 😂

...then dont forget to take everything out as you have to put cables through it first...
