Commericall Electricians make up a small percentage of Electricians. An Commercial Electrician job duties or task vary significantly more than a residential or industrial electrician.
I love this channel so much. I'm an electrician from New York City, and I admire your work. I discovered your channel a couple of weeks ago, and I've been binge watching until I can catch up on all of them. Keep up the good work!
Nice job. I'm a DIYer and find it so satisfying to watch a pro, knowing how long it would take me to measure and bend the conduit offsets (and then do it a second time after I messed up the first attempt, LOL). Very neat install.
Starting my first day of commercial work tomorrow, been doing residential for a year now. Making the switch to commercial. Pretty nervous, I've been talking with the fellow brothers and they say it's not that different. Came across the channel, nice work man.
Just something I was told to do when connecting wires. First connect your grounds then your neutrals and then lastly your hots. Do the opposite when disconnecting
If you work for yourself, another good option is to start bidding Agricultural work like farms and greenhouse wiring. Alot of people want to start to grow food and want greenhouses. Worked on a greenhouse job in Upstate New York. It wasn't difficult because you can use PVC conduit or EMT tubing with raintight fittings. Mostly 3/4" to 1" tubing that's easy to work with.
well ... food huh.. in my country, we're 3rd in the Nation in pot production, almost all are grow-ops of some type mainly indoors like you say, alot of sparkys have worked in them, from mom and pop to outright cartels
Thank you for your videos. I especially like the POV ones where the camera shows what you see. Do you run rigid on any of your jobs? Your 4 point saddle in that EMT was as good as I’ve ever seen. First try at that.
You do beautiful work, but why lay out your conduit in the middle of the floor like that? The safety director in my company would tear me a new one if I did that.
just a question, why r u using home depot and not supply houses? I thought they are providing much better deals if you are using them more than a year?
Just out of curiosity Steven, why do you always go to Home Depot to get your Materials? Don't you have Electrical Supply Houses where you live? Home Depot prices are usually much higher, because they are retail. Don't you have business accounts at Platt, Crescent, Granger, Graybar, EOFF, etc? Great Video, Thanks, Russ, Electrician from Oregon.
I dont like like waiting in line at supply store, plus this was a laast minute job so i didnt have time to wait for an electric supply to open. It usually takes me 1hour or more to check out at supply depending on what im buying. Home depot i can go an get what i want an be in an out in 10-15 mins.
I am completely new to all this, so forgive my ignorance. I saw you ben the pipe and install it (which was very satisfying by the way) but then you started pulling on the wire. Do you install the pipe first then feed the wire through it all or do you pull it through each piece of piping individually as you built the line? Also, how do you feed it through? Thank you and love the videos!
Im currently working on a government project land and we are unable to take pictures or video's. It would make for good content if only. We are energizing a navy base airport and hangars, air tower and all offices top secret mumbo-jumbo but interesting to say the least
This man must live in a low crime community because he didn’t have no problem parking his van at Home Depot in the morning where I live in California you just don’t do that
