Im a first year electrician for resi and commercial I fucken love this trade bro changed my life Fr. I used to work boring 9-5 till I found this that kept me on my toes and allowed me to create and use my brain to install equipment neatly and up to code I love it. Nice work! The only thing I would’ve done differently is laid a tarp just to keep from scratching the floor and a cordless vaccum on hand for these small installs.
I recently did similar at our house, but installed a GFCI in the adjacent cabinet, which I think is current code. And for anyone watching, patch the holes in the drywall. If a "critter" gets in the wall, it's a point of entry into the house.
Does the Romex run need to NOT be behind the DW also, i.e. do you need to move the Romex penetration into the adjacent cabinet also to keep the Romex entirely out of the DW cavity? Or can you keep the existing penetration and just move the termination to the adjacent cabinet?
Wow you make that look so easy. I just installed a new garbage disposal it came with a plug my other garbage disposal let's hardwire now I'm trying to put a new outlet. But for some reason when I turn on the switch its not working. I know my switch is getting power because it's lit up? I had 1 white wire and 1 black plus the copper wire. What did I do wrong?
Square D came out with a new line of outlets and switches called the “X series” the text on the back says #14 wire only but the #12 fits right into the backstab holes no joke. I think it’s a manufacturing defect but home builders love it because you can break the rules and use #12 wire with backstab lol 😂.
Hey Ima highschool student trying to get into being an electrician, can u be a industrial, residential and commercial electrician all at the same time?
We got a dishwasher for the old one was not working for several years. Home depot paid for installation they couldn’t install it. They said we needed a master plumber. Master plumber came out and said we needed a master Electrician. For the old one has house wires and garbage disposal without outlets they just ran the wire through for the old dishwasher was acting a a circuit. Home depot problems with getting money back. Plumber charged to come out. Electrician charges a come out fee. Now broke from paying and still dishwasher in kitchen. Looking for someone who can run wire and dishwasher on youtube.
So it's seems like a 15 amp duplex receptacle when you said it's 12 gauge on a 20 amp breaker idk fs but that sure seems like a 15 amp outlet why not a single use 20 amp outlet.
@@unitedtradesmanacademy1894 fair enough I'm not the guy that bought it so just really looked like a 15 amp one usuay I see the 20 amp receptacles with with the one horizontal dash on the neutral side and didn't see it on this one. Keep up the good work sir 👍
@@simplewick350 so what would the correct setup look like, and is this done so the dishwasher can be plugged and unplugged without removing it? Thanks.
@Sam Andrew Typically if the dishwasher is adjacent to a sink then the receptacle is installed in the under sink cabinet. Then you drill a hole towards the back of the cabinet into the bay designated for your dishwaher and route your cord and water line through that. As to why it's not allowed, I'm not totally sure but it might be something to do with accessibility to the outlet or like you said, to be able to plug and unplug it.
@@simplewick350 I appreciate the info. One more question, is it still allowed to hardwire the electrical connections exactly as before, with the power cable running into the dishwasher cabinet and the wiring compartment located at the bottom front of the floor plate?
