We’re a team of highly-qualified electricians who have held master certifications (the highest qualification an electrician can earn) in three states and spent almost 30 years owning and running a ‘traditional’ electrical contracting firm.
We’re proud to have provided excellent service to thousands of homeowners in our local area by diagnosing and repairing issues like faulty circuit breakers, old wiring and electrical surges, but we always wondered if there was a way we could have a bigger impact. A way we could help people all over the country not just in our local area…
…and now we’ve done it using a method that seemed almost unthinkable to us when we were first setting out on our careers… we’ve gone VIRTUAL!
Now with the help of our revolutionary streaming technology and your phone’s video function, we can guide you step-by-step to fix the problem yourself. It’s like we’re really there with you, telling you exactly what to do next from just over your shoulder.

How is that when I turn my ac on, other circuit is getting affected. And I'm not talking about the initial power surge to start ac. I start the ac and a cooler in the other room is getting slow. What's the reason please explain.

The instructions say to use 1 20 amp single pole for each leg. Does it really matter if its two single pole or one double pole?
@TheVirtualElectrician
@TheVirtualElectrician Месяц назад
yes. use the double pole or install a breaker tie between the 23 singles. if you dont install according to manufacturers instructions you may not get the connected load warranty

What size copper wire to attach to the ground bar on main panel or can it go directly to the ground rod
@TheVirtualElectrician
@TheVirtualElectrician Месяц назад
depends on the service size
@JohnTomchik
@JohnTomchik 2 месяца назад
The ground bar doesn't get connected to the ground on the main. Panel or the ground rod?
@TheVirtualElectrician
@TheVirtualElectrician Месяц назад
this is to separate the grounds and neutrals on a subpanel
@stillaliveandwell5291
@stillaliveandwell5291 Месяц назад
If the sub panel has an existing ground bar on both sides of the panel can it be used with a neutral and hot (circuit breaker) wire on either side of the panel for example you run out of grounds on one side where the breaker is attached can you attach it on the other side that has empty spots. I have an extra 10 gauge wire ground that I guess you can double up to the last ground on the same side as the neutral and hot. Also in this situation 10 gauge is way over kill for the current (no pun intended) connected devices which are low power audio equipment. Audiophiles can be ocd😂. Seems like a dumb question but as my moniker states I'm still alive and well at 71 and would like to stay that way. Thanks in advance.

I want to change from a can light to a semi flush mount and also move it over about 6 inches. Can I just open it up, move the wires to a new junction box with brace and patch the hole, leaving the can up there?

Thanks for the video. I have a camper, with the mini fridge hardwired. The fridge is broken , so I need to replace it, but all the mini fridges i see have a standard plug. Would you suggest running the wires to a new outlet, or cutting the cord from a new fridge, and splicing the old hardwires to the new fridge?

I’m sure he has the main breaker off. And tested off. Otherwise he is jeopardizing safety personally and the home. Best if main breaker is removed. No connection from the meter to the house at all is best.

@TheVirtualElectrician

make sure the circuit is sized correctly. you can try a regular breaker as well
@bookoobeans
@bookoobeans 3 месяца назад
I'm pretty sure if you touch the hot wire with one hand and the neutral with the other, the GFCI circuit will NOT trip, and you WILL be shocked.

Got a question?? On a siemens type blf2 circuit breaker with gfci .120v 20amp Bolt in.. I purchased some of these from someone. The breakers are tripped. I have not installed into breaker yet but they will not reset.. Do they have to be energized before the breaker will reset..
