I need to do the same except move it 10" to the right, is there a 45° corner piece for that metal trunking?
Also is metal trunking only behind the cable or does a section get put in front of it ? Cheers
Hi, what's the tool you used to cut the wall? Thanks
1:14 sds / hammer drill
I'm learning some basics at the moment. What's the reason you didn't use Wago connectors? I didn't realist you could just twist and tape!
He twisted and taped so he could use the old cable as a draw wire to pull the new longer cable in. You can't just join a new piece of cable to existing cable.
This vids bad, doesnt explain whats going on and his method is dangerous, should use connectors
Why not?@@symmetryofzero
Adds another point of failure @@user-rs6wo8yk1z
Where did you join those wires together? you just looped and taped the wires together.
Hi MrUniman69. The looped and taped joint was to enable new cables to be pulled. The connections were carried out under the floor boards above. Hope that helps
@@oakeyelectrical3650 it was the mean of connection I wanted to see lol
@@marcogarofalo6343 I’ll put a video together to show how I did it
How did you fill the old hole afterwards?!
That's what I'm looking for an answer to.
Im assuming one way you can do is expanding foam and then filler or plaster over it and sand down and paint?
The patching up was done by a plasterer. A couple of ways you could do it would be to fill with bonding plaster or sand and cement. Them skim over with multi finish plaster
For small holes like this you can tidy it up yourself with filler. People will tell you you can't and it probably says no more than 5mm depth but I have replaced about a 1m x 1m hole in my wall that was back to brick, all with filler. You need the right tools (same as plastering) to get a good finish but it is doable.
Is there a way to do this without pulling the cables, ie joining using wagos?
Hi Stewart. Not really sure what you mean. Do you mean joining cables and burning them in a wall? The best thing to do would be to replace the cable by either pulling it through on the existing cables or chasing the wall, the you could join the cables under the floor with an appropriate junction box such as a wago box
@@oakeyelectrical3650 that's what I meant. Cheers.
Nothing in the video showed how the new cable was electrically joined to the existing feed. Must hav been done under the floorboards.
Lucky that the cables could be simply pulled through, since often there may be cable clips etc holding the hold cable?
Where are you based in uk as i might need your help as i am doing my kitchen up
Hi I’m based in Gloucestershire
No earth on back box
Now thats a typical sparky finish. No clean-up or repair done. 😂
Very , very poor video....speeded up like that....unable to follow each step !
Alan, Sorry you feel that it was speeded up to much for you to follow. What part of the video were you struggling to follow?
@@oakeyelectrical3650 all i want to do it move the existing socket about 2ft and still use the same socket. Can i use any connectors or just crimp a 2ft cable to the sockets wires when I disconnect them and then tape the crimped joints as a precautions?...just want to extend the same socket about 2ft as the sofa is infront of it. Can you guide me please.?
