You Won't Believe How This Outdoor Socket Was Installed! 

😂

😂😂

😂😂😂

Only if its a new milwaukee

I actually LOL'd at this 👏

To much but I lv it

This looks to be UK

How to say government job without saying government job.

I was going to say The same. Mk wago socket and storm glands £1k job 🤣🤣

You live in a tiny trailer?

That’s UK for you. Glad I don’t live there mate 😂

Should see a belgian one.. my previous house had 18 lines coming out of the box with separate double breakers, just for the downstairs to meet code.. 72 space breaker box, and it was full.. 3 story townhouse.. I'm expecting more in this one, a floor less but more systems to be installed. I need 16 for solar alone..

It's called quality trades work. Not the overpriced 25+ years out dated garbage we have in the states

Meanwhile: American houses literally withstanding hurricanes…

@@markproud8989 can’t last a strong wind 🤣🤣

@@HorseMealso shtewpid bruv innit mate, I’m drink som wahhuhhh

Came here to say this 🤣 Get some flush cuts!

What are u exactly talkin about?

Thought the exact same, leaving a razor blade like that, should be ashamed

Fucking monster, especially with the quality of the rest of his work, mighta just did it as a joke to get comments tho.

My thoughts exactly. Maybe they never learnt how easy it is to leave a flush cut, or they'd never sliced themselves wrist to elbow on a mini plastic razor edge.

I was about the ask the same question! JESUS just an outlet

Imagine paying all the extra money just so he can buy a powered crimp tool … smh

Nobody noticed there were two armoured cables? This is at least 2 outlets, maybe more, customer gonna cry.

About £250

That's gonna be 3,000 pence or quid or pound or whatever the fuck name they use for money.

Two straight through the back of the box. Fiddly trying to get a screwy down those holes!! Blob a bit of silicone on the screw heads. Lovely.

Yes that’s us 😉

US stuff is very simple and works great!

240 volts 😂

@@TheSmithyt we've got 240v in the States as well most fixed appliances use it. We just decided to center tap out transformers and put the neutral in the middle.

@@ForeverZ01 kills great too!

Ikr those things piss me off. Pair of lineman’s work just fine. Such a low volt guy thing to use those

​@@midg-et8419lineman's will fuck up the lugs and probably create a subpar connection. If anything it should be proper crimping pliers but the electrical ones are still nice if you have to do a lot of crimps (and if he has them handy he might as well use them)

I came here to talk about that 😂

@@ianislebelbouchard3539 hahaha

IKR?!

Linesman"s and twist!

@@brawler6216 Cable tie cutters. Tsunoda KBN-125/KBN-150 They can be used to both tighten them and cut them completely flush(with no sharp edge)

Consider the amount of money spent on tools, why didn't he use that tool which tightens the zip tie and cuts it?

Yes. It's a requirement to British Standards. In section 1.0.23. To really annoy Americans/Plumbers/Refridge Engineers, it is good practice to leave a sharp, scar producing piece of plastic or metal somewhere on the installation. Preferably in a loft or other insulated space, such that the wound gets infected and the dripping blood will be traipsed through the property, annoying the customer until the first aid kit is found. Refer to section 2.4.90 regarding first aid kits for electricians. In this section, a wide range of dressings can be found, from black tape, to grey tape, including blue, brown and occasionally white. However, green and yellow must not be used, as a bleeding body part is NOT an extraneous metal part, and thus should not be identified as such.

yeah those earth locknuts are excellent, sadly they won't fit in a Wiska box :(

@@TheChipmunk2008 Hensel do a good box to match the gland, it’s got an earthing plate in it

@@stickytoffeestreet8725 thank you... Good tip... Will check it out

​@TheChipmunk2008 you need a wiska box earthing clamp.

Agreed!

Hensel Electric Uk. Stocked at some of the wholesalers around the country. Where are you based?

My Canadian Sparkies think wagos "aren't secure enough" because it's not a twisted together connection...

@@brawler6216same with my electrician and most of America

If an American didn’t invent it, to them it’s alien crap. I’ve no idea how BMW penetrated the US market.

@@MrCameron8841 Checked the rest of the world..... yep, nobody gave a f&ck

North America uses 120 volt household circuits. Therefore, for the same kind of things being supplied, the current level is twice as high. So the Wagos are operated much closer to their rated current. Even good sparkies sometimes forget the formula, I^2 x R. Why this is a factor is because of a "less than great" connection of a push in Wago has a bit of resistance. Now when the current doubles, the heating becomes, 4 times greater because it's current squared. The end result is that with higher currents using the 120 volt standard, the inherent weakness of Wago, makes it self known. The clamp style Wago addresses this to some degree. Current rating is about 30% higher as the surface contact on the clamp style connection has a much larger area than the push in style. Wagos have been known to fail in North America. Hopefully, I just explained why that is, even when in UK, issues are unheard of.

There is one cable feeding that box and another going back out to another box. The Ground (Earth) connection looks to be provided from the black (sleeved green and yellow) core of the incoming cable and, via the gland and nut, from the Steel-Wire-Armour of the cable. These are also linked to the outgoing cable to continue elsewhere. The cable itself is suitable for burying in the ground without further physical protection - the SWA protects it from being easily cut through with a spade and if something (such as a fork) were to penetrate it and touch a Live, there would be a dead short, between the Live and the armour, tripping the circuit out immediately.

It’s a hensel gsc20 gland

this man gets the award for best comment not kidding, everyone else is amazed but he finds the one great constructive criticism he can and delivers it perfectly

@@user-dt6pk3zp9m Thanks. I just replaced a bunch of plastic zip ties last weekend so it was fresh in my mind 😂

Except for that zip tie cut

Mainland European sockets (from country to country) tend to be even more robust. This would meet code in my country.

@@pietervercauteren1505 I'd argue that the UK socket is the best one.

Be glad you don't work in Russia.

@@dkmcdk724 i’m glad i don’t have to work in the US 😇

The US stuff, especially consumer units and breakers, looks much the same as the old installations from the 50s and 60s that we remove before replacing with modern equipment.

Klauke ek30 - they answered further down ;)

Dibs this for older cars

I couldn't agree more!

god bless my arse...

Watch again. It's most definitely drilled out 🤦

There is metal covering the wire.
