@@InXLsisDeo shit you reminded me photonic induction. I miss this guy. Didn't he make a video saying he had tons of legal problems to marry and live with his wife, becaude she is a foreigner and can't come to live in UK? He seemed depressed. I hope he's doing fine.
I like how mehdi teaches electricity physics with fun and makes common mistakes (probably on purpose) to show what you should be aware of. Thats actually quality education and i love it
probably?? do you really think he does not know what he is doing? it's all for show. in the scene in the house when he plugs in the voltmeter you dont see that he puts the to wires (black and red) in a circuit (it;s film in such a way that you dont see it) so that when he connects to the socket it will make a spark. He knows what he is doing. 100% all the time. so it's just a show
At 2:09 the transformer isn't really blowing up. He rigged a undervolted capacitor to the ac lines ,that couldn't be seen, and would blow up when plugged it. Seems to be one of his favorite tricks. Even tho most of the mishaps are staged it doesn't take away the entertainment value for me.

Well when you get electrocuted you muscles contract, so he probably just drilled in his mind to react like that to get away from the source. I mean that what I've done, thanks to some personal incidents on work.

We used to do this all the time at the entertainment lighting company I used to work at. It was super janky, but we had a box of 2x5-15 to 1xL5-20 adapters to run 220v moving lights that we used far more then should probably be admitted for home wedding or small corporate event type shows. Then we went to set up some lights 230V for a small show on the USS Midway museum. Despite my best tries and some then baffling multi-meter readings we never got it to work, and had to come up with some 110V lights. A few years later I found out that ships typically use delta power because the insulation performance of the jackets of power cables was not well trusted in marine environments, so the systems were designed to have as low of potential to ground as possible. This means that old ships like the Midway and even many new cruise ships have two hots and a ground instead of hot-ground-neutral like you'd typically see on a 110V system.
4:00 the reason why the meter exploded: as he said his meter was on "current". His 20 A plug is directly shorted to ground with a thick copper wire. Which means, probing the 240 V socket is the same with shorting itself, yields extra power and explodes the copper wire inside. I'm pretty surprised the house's breaker didn't open after a sudden circuit short.
Imagine his sister doing UA-cam videos about chemistry with the same style were she intentionally does stupid things to show why you shouldn't do them like adding water into acid instead of the opposite...

It was a nice effect x) Obviously he just has a small charge/firecracker on top of his multimeter, that's why it is conveniently tilted. He wouldn't risk breaking a multimeter just for the effect. Plus if you measure current like that when you are supposed to measure voltage it will only start welding the probe heads, no bangs (I've done that mistake a couple of times)
@@vladchira521 The casings in multimeters are pretty thick. When stuff blows up inside you just hear a noise, definitively you don't see sparks shoot out. Multimeters have a fuse inside that protects the rest of the electronics and you can only hear a faint click when it blows. As fun as it would be to think he messed up, again, all of these "accidents" are for entertainment, but I do still appreciate them.
Well, it's actually 220V and 127V. And the reason the lower voltage is 127 instead of 120 is so wiring two phases together gives you exactly 220V, which allows you to do what Mehdi did more reliably (but you probably want to wire up a proper socket instead of making this two plug monstrosity he did).
Seriously one of the best videos you've done. The spaghetti twist was amazing! Is it normal for contractors to just cut thru live wires and let water drip everywhere?? Seems like the water would be a big problem for essentially everything.
Yes. Worse than that I had a landlord in Cardiff who had a flat energised and occupied by a tenant for months while his crackhead builders worked on the flat above. They took the sink off and didn't drain and cap, resulting in quite a lot of water running into the building's fire alarm system and her lights. He refused to return her even a penny's rent while she had buckets in the flat and couldn't safely live there. Absolute scumbag.
thanks to the stupid wall socket i can easily- *spaghetti cracks and terrifies medhi* While i just try not to die from laughter Edit: Omg Thank you for likes! I did not think that i would get 500+ likes
I can relate. Right as I got comfortable in bed, I hear electrical shorting from a DC switch. I start sniffing and looking for smoke... turns out a friken moth got trapped somewhere and it's wings frantically beating against a wall, sounded like electrical shorting.
I'm a electrical engineer and been working as a programmer for the last 7 years so I'm a bit rusty on the electrical side of things. Watching these videos help me refresh my memory and I'm glad I haven't forgotten fundamental things.

Yes, Most homes in the States are wired for 240 volt "split phase" and a neutral/ground. The service drop terminates in a "breaker panel" where it is split into two neutral-referenced circuits, 180° out-out-phase, giving us two *_always_* separate 120 volt circuits.
240v is pretty common to single family homes. You have 208v in your apartment because the building gets hi voltage to the utility room, and has their own transformer, and steps uses it for 3 phase power.
Ive done the reverse for my American pizza cooker in the uk, used a construction site transformer which is 240v down to 110v centre tapped. Works perfect.
What also sucks is when everyone just starts and just like you said you can't figure out the question. 20 seconds later you hear people flipping pages. That always puts pressure on me
*3:49* *Multimeter blows up as an ■●○□•《dynamite》•□○●■.* 5:14 *Wire clicks and then sparks because of (leaking water)* 5:30 *(Disconnects [2-Pole Brkr] Main Fuse)*
I have an entire setup in my workshop to run European tools. Schuko outlets installed over the work bench, an entire DIN rail distribution board, complete with RCBOs for the branch circuits. Line to line here is 240v but since we are served by a center tapped open delta 3 phase system, we also have a high leg available that is 208v to neutral. So we have 3 phase 240, 240v L-L, 120v L-N and 208v L-N available all in the same panel.
In memorandum: all of the green multimeters that lost their life to Mehdi trying to probe for voltage while in current mode. I use the multimeter function on that nifty handheld oscilloscope you used in the Heated Seat video because that input is unfused and I don't need to buy a fuse if it blows up... right? ....RIGHT?! (Disclaimer: I am not an engineer)
Brazil is a lot of fun: we get 127 V where I'm writing this, but drive north for an hour and 220 V is standard, a legacy from decisions by early local utilities. In some places it's a matter of crossing the street, apparently. Similar to North America, some appliances need 220 V, and homes in 127 V areas can get two phases offset by 120° for those.
In Ottawa where i live 122-123V is the norm though I've seen it sag to 118V before and rise to 125V before. I've even had my UPS trip on an OVER voltage from the utility but that was a rare event.
In Brazil some cities have 220V line voltage (that is 127v phase voltage), other cities have 380V line voltage (or 220V phase voltage) but the 380v voltage is not used in residential applications.

Here in Brazil we have cities with 230 volts and others with 127 it's a real mess
Ciro Souza wtf?
cara eu já queimei duas TVs antigas por conta isso. eh uma merda.
@@RowynOfficial older cities like capitals and such run on 127 while newer smaller cities on 230

Well, it's actually 220V and 127V. And the reason the lower voltage is 127 instead of 120 is so wiring two phases together gives you exactly 220V, which allows you to do what Mehdi did more reliably (but you probably want to wire up a proper socket instead of making this two plug monstrosity he did).

Seriously one of the best videos you've done. The spaghetti twist was amazing!
Is it normal for contractors to just cut thru live wires and let water drip everywhere?? Seems like the water would be a big problem for essentially everything.
Yes. Worse than that I had a landlord in Cardiff who had a flat energised and occupied by a tenant for months while his crackhead builders worked on the flat above. They took the sink off and didn't drain and cap, resulting in quite a lot of water running into the building's fire alarm system and her lights. He refused to return her even a penny's rent while she had buckets in the flat and couldn't safely live there. Absolute scumbag.

I thought something was arcing.

I can relate.
Right as I got comfortable in bed, I hear electrical shorting from a DC switch. I start sniffing and looking for smoke... turns out a friken moth got trapped somewhere and it's wings frantically beating against a wall, sounded like electrical shorting.
I'm a electrical engineer and been working as a programmer for the last 7 years so I'm a bit rusty on the electrical side of things. Watching these videos help me refresh my memory and I'm glad I haven't forgotten fundamental things.
That is such an awesome combo of knowledge. I just started learning both and will need years to get the basics of both.
I respect this guy so much he does the dumb things for us so we learn and not kill ourselves
He is a professional engineer so he knows what will kill him and what wont

He answered it himself at the beginning. He is an Electrical Engineer. Good one at that. Lol.
Because hes not nearly as dumb as he has some of you thinking he is. The words controlled environment come to mind.

Yes, Most homes in the States are wired for 240 volt "split phase" and a neutral/ground. The service drop terminates in a "breaker panel" where it is split into two neutral-referenced circuits, 180° out-out-phase, giving us two *_always_* separate 120 volt circuits.
240v is pretty common to single family homes.
You have 208v in your apartment because the building gets hi voltage to the utility room, and has their own transformer, and steps uses it for 3 phase power.

I have an entire setup in my workshop to run European tools. Schuko outlets installed over the work bench, an entire DIN rail distribution board, complete with RCBOs for the branch circuits. Line to line here is 240v but since we are served by a center tapped open delta 3 phase system, we also have a high leg available that is 208v to neutral. So we have 3 phase 240, 240v L-L, 120v L-N and 208v L-N available all in the same panel.
In memorandum: all of the green multimeters that lost their life to Mehdi trying to probe for voltage while in current mode.
I use the multimeter function on that nifty handheld oscilloscope you used in the Heated Seat video because that input is unfused and I don't need to buy a fuse if it blows up... right? ....RIGHT?! (Disclaimer: I am not an engineer)
You're so naive!...what he does is called ACTING... otherwise it would be boring.
Technically true: You don't need to buy a fuse if it blows up.

Technically correct is the best kind of correct.

Brazil is a lot of fun: we get 127 V where I'm writing this, but drive north for an hour and 220 V is standard, a legacy from decisions by early local utilities. In some places it's a matter of crossing the street, apparently. Similar to North America, some appliances need 220 V, and homes in 127 V areas can get two phases offset by 120° for those.
In a lot of houses there's rooms that are 127 and another's that are 220,it's really wild
In Ottawa where i live 122-123V is the norm though I've seen it sag to 118V before and rise to 125V before. I've even had my UPS trip on an OVER voltage from the utility but that was a rare event.
In Brazil some cities have 220V line voltage (that is 127v phase voltage), other cities have 380V line voltage (or 220V phase voltage) but the 380v voltage is not used in residential applications.
