We're reinventing the wheel. Cable ties are good enough

Can you explain to a guy who is not an electrician but I’m doing my own off grid solar system with can lights why you wouldn’t use a snap in Romex clamp in the junction box to protect the wire on the can light?

Great video. Nice dialogue. Appreciate the insights.

Tore down wall and need to reconnect power to upstairs Continuous line but now the wire/cable is too short to connect it at a different location. How do you properly connect power by code without adding a hidden Junction box behind a wall or ceiling?

That is a nice job dude.

I wish i was skilled enough to set up a small one in my yard :)

I have a hardwired generator but not a standby system. Last time the power did go out was late night and pouring rain. I didn't go out to start it. The power came back on before I had too.

It's unfortunate that you left the extra wire to loop up from the bottom but your helper installed the box with the wire straight up and cut off the extra wire.

Jeeze replaced a junction box wow

best looking and most knowledgeable electrician/installed here on you tube :)

My son's first year in trade school his "mentors" had him digging ditches. He's thin so he's always squeezing into small places

Square screwdrivers are technically called Robertsons they originate from Canada. And anything is better than Phillips and flat. Although it seems like a lot of screws are getting weaker and strip easier.

Funny how this doesn't apply to Magazines. The constant springing is what wears out your spring, not leaving it loaded. Don't believe me? Load an AR15 mag leave for 5 yrs, comeback and tell me how if still works like new.

Generacs are hit and miss by model. Get a Kohler or Briggs

No average person is buying this over a generator. There is almost no value in one of these unless you are rich.

Two questionable items : Being the power cord has cord connectors at both ends to me its a glorified extension cord. Femsle cord connector would be safer & more reliable if it was a teist lock.

“ TOO EASY “

Do not hire jose😮

Are the conductors leading to the tub #6 wire?

Total hack for using 14 gauge instead of 12

The worst thing about electricians is the majority of them are non-union

Ahhh. Solaredge. Have fun replacing optimizers in 45 min que calls. Good product that doesn’t last long Enphase all day.

Someone’s load of laundry is dome

Weird music…dope video

The dimension is length.

We're electricians, we have wire splicers and know how to use them. We can modify proprietary cables if we need to. And we know how to make it safe.

The more I see battery systems such as this the more I appreciate fossil fuels and alternating current from the utility company. Thanks for the video!

thank you so much.

NEC 300.18(A) is the reference for raceway to be complete before conductors are installed. I have only had to use that one a few times. One was when an out of state contractor was trying to build an 8 story lab in their shop and install it pre built. I had to stop that because conductors were getting damaged before the raceway sections were installed.

Too easy

Thanks for sharing.

So, if I’m using a battery pack like this, then I want it to be able to output 240VAC directly. I don’t want to have to pair it with a second unit to provide the other 120VAC line. There aren’t many portable battery packs like this which provide 240VAC directly.

Good product & good vid ... Thx

Does anyone actually use their "portable power station" portably and permanently?

Illinois prohibits PVC on exterior and code says if it can be damaged rigid must be used

Since when is aluminum feed to breaker panel code. Not in Illinois to much expansion contraction

Why wasn't the meter box mounted where old one was now you have bare wood showing

Inspectors suck

Anybody out there using their batteries permanently AND portably?

I’ve always enjoyed watching your videos, but I haven’t watched your videos in about little over a year. I just thought of watching them again more newer ones and I’ve noticed that you’re using a lot of Dewalt power tools. I remember you were highly recommended Milwaukee power tools. I just thought it was a little strange in the change but it all depends on what you like. Best doing your good work and I enjoy watching your videos again. God bless.

you didn't need all that protective clothes for 60 amps

I prefer my trim plate screws to be vertical. I live in a house thats 100+ years old and there a heckuva lotta dust that’s generated. Maybe minor to you, but keep counting all the horizontal ledges for those with allergies. 👍🏻

As a sparky I wouldn't touch a broom even if it was a klien. That's the able bodies jobs.

gotta make sure to always run that ohms law equation in those converter modules! otherwise they'd just be lawless, and that would be super bad.

Galvanized pipe? Like Galvanized Square Steel!? 😱

Your placement is dangerous my dude.

I got an estimate for a 22kw generac. Little surprised they recommended that large of one. 2300 sq ft but all gas house - water heater, furnace, dryer, stove top. Only big electrical draws is 4 ton AC and a double oven. Don’t you think 22kw is way overboard?

Hey Joel, at 51:12 you mentioned the union apprenticeship requirements for a hammer. Is Jefferson a union shop? I only ask now because I haven't heard you mention it before and, while I've worked for both union and non union, I wonder which you preferred as an employee and employer. My personal preference is non union because the last union job I worked was so full of corruption the IBEW actually sent financial auditors out to our local to close it down and fine all the officers - I know that's not the norm but the whole thing really spoiled it for me.

Are steel "helical piers" superior to proper concrete anchors? Not nit picking, who hasn't seen steel in soil that was rusted to nothing? I work where 70mph gusts are frequent and normal - Mojave, Rosamond, Antelope Valley, etc.
