Points earned for not swearing Delroy.

When you love your job so much you do it twice. We've all done it.

@eastwayelectrical 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching.

@DoctorElectricYouTube 6 месяцев назад

I felt your pain when you couldn't get the fitting on, we've all done things like that! My goto bulkhead is the JCC Rapidfix, once you've fitted one, you would never go anywhere else! Can change it in 5 minutes! Good video Delroy, hopefully catch up soon!

Real world experience is invaluable, thanks for sharing.

1:42 - I hope there isn't a fire in this pub... lol

@davedecliningdriving7659 6 месяцев назад

With all that wiring in the ceiling void, I think I'd be worried 3:18

Sometimes we electricians think it's a small,tiny job,but turns out that sometimes small jobs get longer hours...😂

@jameswatters9592 6 месяцев назад

It used to be said that there are no just jobs

@delrey-p 6 месяцев назад

I think this applies to all trades!

@leshackett3687 6 месяцев назад

Pub jobs are always a mess

@brianharper8304 6 месяцев назад

& restaurants are not much better either

@markmundy8695 6 месяцев назад

This is real world stuff Del shows it how it is and many would walk away from 👍🏻

Thanks for watching.

I’ve used the first fitting at work. i’ve used a 20mm hole saw and longated a slot so the cover spins on 👍

@pasqualeamabile5672 6 месяцев назад

You always do a great job Delroy😊

@johankorten2797 6 месяцев назад

Lamps, always horrible. Thanks for sharing!

@steve11211 6 месяцев назад

That first light fitting is great, I use those but as soon as I saw conduit I thought oh no its not gunna screw on... JCC radialed are the solution as the white cover pushes on so you can make a cutout for the conduit and then push it on...

@eastwayelectrical 6 месяцев назад

Yeah 🤣I didn't notice until I tried to put the cover on, and I was so pleased with myself before that.

@blackdotkiller1 6 месяцев назад

The only mistake you made was saying you have a nice easy job before you started.🤦‍♂️ You should only say that afterwards when you have finished 👍

@eastwayelectrical 6 месяцев назад

Sounds like someone who knows the trade, thanks for watching.

@DavidJohnstoneBespoke 6 месяцев назад

Why not just make a cut out with your multitool, you'd hardly notice it and would have been a much faster option

@soundlevel 6 месяцев назад

A Thorn Lara is my choice of bulkhead light fitting, perfect for almost all situations. It has a small flat spot on the side for a 20mm hole, it would have been perfect for your job.

@mikethetester100 6 месяцев назад

I once fitted a light on a ceiling I forgot about the cupboard door...funny

@kennethausten 6 месяцев назад

I did that. Mounted the light too high and the cover would not go on. Was a freezing day as well. Had to redrill the fixings. I must add, it was at my home, not a customer. Still annoying.

@shodan2958 6 месяцев назад

Been looking at your videos since I once considered becoming an electrician (Now IT) and I must say I can understand the frustration of the fixture not fitting but I think you've done an excellent job dealing with the issue and that light fixture should now last many years hopefully. Certainly would satisfy me at the end of the day.

@adamsharp201 7 дней назад

So basically you don't have the grades and intelligence to become a fully qualified electrician. Stick to your computer

@almerdiahmed3160 6 месяцев назад

Nice job

@FrankieBoy-wn6qt 9 дней назад

Liked the way he tries to force it on lol….maybe you should take up plumbing or even painting ….🤔

@stevec00ps 6 месяцев назад

A pub that sells Tayto in London?! Sounds like somewhere I need to go :)

@eastwayelectrical 6 месяцев назад

In this pub there's no loud music only a piano. Apparently its packed whenever the Arsenal are at home.

@marcrufus5814 6 месяцев назад

That was crying out for a short length of plastic pipe and a stop end box, you could have got the cover on then and fitted a blind grommet. Saved buying another new fitting.

@reeceoverton1421 6 месяцев назад

Yeah such an easy fix that

@marcrufus5814 6 месяцев назад

If you struggle to cut 6” of plastic pipe and screw a stop end box to the wall I worry how you’d cope on a big job….

@lotuselise4432 6 месяцев назад

I thought by going wrong meant that you had drank 8 pints of Guinness and went through a box of Tayto's and staggered home at 3 in the morn ;o)))))

@samfish6938 24 дня назад

You need more light in your van during video

@jsj555 6 месяцев назад

How much would you charge for that job Delroy?

@thenuttycreator4719 6 месяцев назад

I’m not a sparky so this is probably a dumb question but why not cut a small hole so that the cover fits?

@tommochelsea72 6 месяцев назад

The covers twist on with those lights.

@eastwayelectrical 6 месяцев назад

Fittings have to be installed properly, If it doesn't fit correctly get one that does.

@audibell 6 месяцев назад

How are you doing and how is the van

@eastwayelectrical 6 месяцев назад

The Van is all good repairs all done I take all tool and drills of every night. Right pain but I cant take the chance.

@toddt6730 6 месяцев назад

Would you have been allowed to notch out that cover to fit around that pipe

@eastwayelectrical 6 месяцев назад

That would have been a BODGE in my opinion.

@herbertpearson5665 6 месяцев назад

Potential fire hazard in that ceiling space?

@frankmcconnellogue3351 6 месяцев назад

The place looks like it needs demolished.

@jimmynicollikesapickle1124 6 месяцев назад

Could have cut a notch out on the rim

@shaniapearcey 6 месяцев назад

Whats sparkies opinions on the volt pens/death sticks ?

@brianharper8304 6 месяцев назад

they've got their uses but never use them to prove circuits are dead

@steveb1856 6 месяцев назад

Proves its live but doesn’t. Prove dead, but you might be if you rely on that!

@muzikman2008 6 месяцев назад

Useful for tracing cables. Never use to prove dead, even proving live can give false results sometimes. Always use a 2 pole tester and proving unit to prove dead.

@truefoa 6 месяцев назад

As above ☝and make sure you buy a decent one one, not the glowing screwdriver type.

@eastwayelectrical 6 месяцев назад

Funny thing I've never used it like that before. Once you know what you are doing its all good. Only do what you feel safe doing.
