Electrician Quick Tip 8 - Flex Connector Trick ⚡️

  • Опубліковано 23 тра 2024
  • Here is a little trick that I use every time that I’m fishing flex to a cut in box. While there are multiple different ways to achieve the same result, I find that being able to pull my flex from the center of the connector with the string makes a sometimes tedious task almost effortless. It has been a game changer for me and I think that it will be for you too. Try it out and let me know what you think!

    I used e-tape to tape the string. Your idea is better thank you.

    This will work great or look at the back of the box and if there’s a knockout in the back just pull your flex out of the wall insert everything and simply push the box back in the wall😊

    Thanks for the advice on the cover letter and resume I’m going to start my portfolio soon and make time to go through the other apprenticeship series you have by chance did you cover dress code for the interview?

    Does that flex need to be grounded to the box? Raceway within a raceway?

    Crazy how some municipalities require conduit inside of the walls

      That's pretty standard in Europe Already though we use PVC conduit. Makes it very easy to replace wires and helps prevent electrical fires

    Everyday thing as a commercial electrician. Unbelievable how many this is new too. Literally the only known way to do it with flex . Mc cable you just use the wire.

    Next electrician that works on that box will see the string and say he'll be back in a week.

      Hilarious 😂😂
      You actually can’t see it at all though once you cut it. There’s maybe an inch left and it springs back up into the connector once cut.

    As Uk Spark, this would all be unnecessary and wasteful of materials 👍🏻

      6” of string would be a waste? This is a situation where I think the time saved overshadows and extra material cost for string.
