MR. ELECTRICIAN'S ELECTRICAL WIRING VIDEOS Dear Mr. Electrician: Do you have any electrical wiring videos?

Table of Video Contents: Light Switch Replacement Four-Gang Meter Socket Replacement Generator Interlock Kit Installation Bathroom Fan Switch Wiring I replaced a broken wall switch that would not stay in the off position. The Decora-style switch would immediately bounce back to the on position when pushed off. That was an unusual occurrence. With the necessary tools and a new switch in front of me, it took less than ten minutes to replace. I shot the electrical wiring video below of the switch-changing process in time-lapse mode to speed it up, but I think it came out too fast. Top Of Page Watching videos to learn how to do some electrical projects can be very helpful. However, I have noticed that many videos detailing electrical projects are not compliant with the National Electrical Code (NFPA 70). It is essential to consider the source of the information you are watching and reading. Many electrical wiring videos are uploaded by DIYers who did something for the first time in their lives and are proud to share their work, even if it provides terrible information.

When you get to the construction phase of your home renovation project, you must be mindful of your personal safety as well as the safety of people and property that may be in proximity to your work. I wash my hands frequently while working because I come in contact with all kinds of things. I always have hand wipes available. Hard hats, gloves, and safety glasses offer the very basic personal protection. For certain tasks additional safety precautions need to be taken. For instance when working around live electricity, an electrician would need insulated tools and gloves rated for the voltages that he or she works on. Additionally it is important to conduct yourself in a safe manner during construction. Be mindful of heavy lifting or reaching in awkward positions. Use a ladder when working on the ceiling, or anything high for that matter. Chairs, buckets, milk crates, and anything else not made to be stood on, should not be stood on. One bad fall can change your life forever.
