Some people just have the gift to explain things and make it simple. You Sir have that gift. Thank you From a avid DIY’er, one of the best vids I’ve seen on ANY subject
Explaining everything and then going over it very thoroughly with the multimeter really helps to reinforce and understand how things work for me. This is what makes a difference between someone who states information and someone who actually teaches. Thank you for this because this is how i learn and retain. I actually dont need to keep looking up relay and transformer videos after watching this now 😂
I liked this 3x just to make sure my like was accounted. I asked my school instructor to explain normally open verses normally closed...he could not adequately explain it like u just did. Thank u
Been in the fields for 40 years. Basically, oil burners today we're converted lots of oil burners to gas. I learned how to use the meter. And I also learn how to check my relays and Transformers. Great information, buddy, thank you.
This informative video covers relays, Contactors, transformers, Thermostats, motors. It goes to the point and covers a lot of useful information. Thank you for showing and sharing your knowledge in a simple but extremely valuable way. Please post more HVAC videos.
Just me, I have been a marine electrician for 34 years. When you put the female connector into the sta-con tool, you had it with the tooth over the seam of the connector. But when you crimp them this way, the two halves with the seam will spread apart because of the tooth on the tool, not giving you the best crimp possible. We were always taught to do it with the tooth on the other side of the connector, so the tooth would push up and into the connector, and the part with the wire and the seam will push up and form around the wire, giving a tight crimp. Nit picking, I know, but inspectors in our field anyway would hit these connections if crimped with the tooth on the seam, and you would have to cut it off and do it the other way. But a very informative video in any case.👍
@taddydigest You should show the proper usage of those crimping pliers. The part you used @15:06 is labeled NON, for use with NON insulated terminals. You should use the section labeled INS, designed for insulated terminals as shown. It makes a difference, as the one tends to damage the nylon barrel.
I believe the rounded side goes on the side with wire being crimped as well as using the insulated part of the tool. If you use the pointy side on the barrel end you'll clamp down one side more than the other.
This video was great! I was trying to make sure I knew exactly what I was doing before attempting to replace an old mercury line voltage thermostat in my basement with a new smart thermostat. The main floor Tstat was LV already, but the basement zone was HV for some reason. You made it super easy to understand that I want the heat call wire off the thermostat and the common wire to power the relay, and then the HV lines will be connected to the normally open poles that close the circuit when the control side provides power.

Good video, I want to share some info on a comment you made. Correct me if I'm wrong. Yes, sequencers do have timed delays built in and that's not the only difference. Additionally, sequencers are design to support the high amp demand that heating elements draw. Those relays like the 90340 you demonstrated are design to carry inductive loads like a condenser or blower motor. NOT resistive load like heat stripes. Those relays would turn into hot fudge sundays. Now, the contactor relay would do well. Sir, you handle those probes like Chinese chop sticks, best i have ever seen. Great job, I enjoy the channel.
Man this video was awesome. It's got known knowns, known unknowns and unknown unknowns. Stuff I know I know, stuff I know I didn't know and stuff I didn't know I didn't know. Very helpful.
I really appreciate this video. Not just for the knowledge on application, but for explaining the components. Going to watch this a few times to try and get it set in my head.
I completely understand both relays on how the 24 volts changes each pole from open to close. The only problem I'm having is that you didn't discuss the wiring on the connectors and their purpose. For instance, on pole 1,2, and 3, are they all hot wires? Why would you need power to 2, then shut it down and send power to 3?
Watching this video with some field experience and some foundational knowledge helps a lot. It all clicks and makes very much sense. Thank you Taddy I’ve come a long way bro.
MaaaaaN, you have explain it so well, i have been never able to learn it so well. like the whole wiring system is been explained so well, which always haunted me. keep it up

Maaaannnn its Feb.2024!!! I just found ur channel. Ur awesome!!. this has cleared up some many issues, that I had. Thank you much. Could you explain what "Common" really is, please?. Especially on the low voltage circuitry. It is still an issue on how it works. Thnx again.
I've had to learn basic controls for the plumbing course I'm taking, nothing really makes sense. This video was explained very well and simplified for beginners like myself. Thanks!

Tip for apartment maintenance work order/on call, if they state the heat won’t turn off or it’s 100 degrees in their apt.. most likely the Sequencer. Don’t forget to visually inspect all wires for burns and loose connections 👍🏼
Hi Tad, I have an electric ac/furnace unit. It has a safety alert to tell me when there's water in the bottom pan. My thermostat went bad. I changed it and blew a fuse, I fixed that. So now I have my thermostat on nothing runs. I wire my Yello, green & ref low voltage wires all together. I can then run my ac & blower, but the blower won't shut off. Do you know any reason the safety alert might have something to do with the fan always on?? OMG, I'm on my fourth day of trouble shooting, and it was 90 today😢 unemployed until next month, so here I am on UA-cam University. I've now watched all of your videos. Thank you for them!
Thank you for the video! My blower had quit working and i thought the start cap was bad so I replaced it but the problem persisted. The compressor was running but there was no air moving. I spent a couple hours in the crawl space at the unit (old Trane XE 1100 with gas - Pulse unit) and every time I tried to run the fan I heard this humming. So I tapped the fan relay enclosure and it kicked on! My local supply place had a tp-90340 for 13 bucks that replaced the very old p-8-10283.
Hey Tadd..thank you for how patient you are when you share your knowledge..you should be a professor..ua techs really appreciate the simple and yet soo informative videos...auperthanks bro...
Thanks for sharing this man. I did not know that these relays function with normally closed and normally open switches. I'm pretty positive that I have a bad relay right now not letting 24 v get to one terminal of the honeywell S86F igniter.on my furnace.
With winter approaching I’m finally getting to installing my basement smart thermostat that has line voltage inputs. It was at the bottom of my list since my heat only system is not needed in the summer here. Do you have any recommendations for what brand/model relay to use for controlling the HV switched boiler heat with the smart thermostat? I already have the boiler transformer I’m tapping and ran the LV lines to power the smart thermostats, so I don’t need a transformer/relay, just a regular one. Much appreciated. I feel as though the knowledge and confidence I acquired months ago has faded from my mind 😅
Excellent. I just found your vlogs. Incredible teaching! I am using these to train my HS boy to test units so he can help me with my HVACR business! This is worth gold, buddy! Thank you so much and I admire your teaching!
Thank You! I have been looking for a great video on this topic for a long time. Knowing about something is one thing but being able to explain it in easy terms is what we need more of. 10 out of 10 rating.

Thanks for the video. I've been troubleshooting a Hallmark horizontal oil fired furnace. I'm having an issue with it going into a lockout. Sometimes it will work for a couple days, others just a few hours. Order of replaced parts are...oil Filter, pump screen/strainer, nozzle, electrodes (adusted properly), and cad sensor have all been replaced in the last 2wks. I added a pressure gauge to the pump and its reading 140psi...single oil line, above ground, gravity oil tank. This is an older pump, no shutoff solenoid. The flame looks great & the limit switch seems to be operating properly. The ignition transformer throws an arc at least an inch. No smoke or soot. Have you ever run into an intermittent problem like this that was the transformer or fan relay? Any suggestions would GREATLY be appreciated. Once I press the red reset button the furnace fires right up and I can never get it to act up while watching it. Thanks in advance.
Dude.. you rock! Everything on this video I finally understand after all these years I had somewhat an understanding. But this was clear refresher. Thank you.
Awesome video I'm usually doing construction and recently moved over to the service side and this helped me out so much thank you and keep posting videos like this very much appreciated
I love your videos. I watch it over & over until it burns my brain. Question: I am working on Carrier HVAC which is 25 years old. I replaced the transformer and I checked all the wires. I got all the power but My Control Board has no red light. Any suggestions I appreciate it.

Thank you
90-340 relays can handle resistance loads as well, you just don't see many in that occupation. They max out at 15 amp.
I to was impressed with the way he handled those probes.
I thank you wonderful information, your videos are great
You basically set me up for a good mark in my next lab exam. Thank you so much!
Glad I could help!
Spot on my man!!!! Ive been in the field for 18 years and you explained it perfectly!!

check for 24 volts and then yes replace board
Outstanding video. Nice layout. Can you explain more on how contractor, capacitor and pressure switches on refrigerant lines work. How they are tied into each other?
Yes definitely
