Great job, you are an icon to this trade Mike Holt and I greatly appreciate all you do to continuously promote this trade while educating us all. Blessings galore !
Just started work as an apprentice, I don’t start school until September but there are so many things I’m curious about, thank you so much for putting this together!😊
I recently purchased this. I really enjoyed how they explained everything. I would recommend it. It actually helped me when I took my state test, which I passed. 😊
Why would the inspector be wrong about bonding the metal poles for the pool? Was it outside the perimeter bond of the pool or were they just insulated by the cups they went into? I thought in one of the examples where the lifeguard was electrocuted it was due to one of the handrails not being bonded. Just trying to understand things a bit better. Thanks for all you do, have learned a lot from you and your team.
Rather than call it “Electrical Theory” (eyes glaze over for many), “Electrical Fundamentals” or “Electrical Essentials” conveys as sense of practicality and of application.
Because theory doesn't mean a guess or a hunch. A lot of people confuse theory with hypothesis. A theory is a body of knowledge that explains a family of concepts, and is scientifically proven beyond a reasonable doubt, based on our best understanding in the present day. A fact is one piece of data on which a theory is based. A theory puts numerous facts together, and builds a model to explain why those facts are true from fundamental principles. The distinction between theory and practice, is that a lot more factors come in to play in practice, that might not show up in a simple application of the theory. As an example, assuming you have nominal voltage at your service point, and basing your calculations off of it, is an example of theory. Theoretically, you are supposed to have 120V line to neutral, and 240V line to line, on a split-phase service. In practice, the exact voltage at your service point is a moving target, that varies with the loads your neighbors consume throughout the day.
@@MR-nl8xr Do you have a point to all of this? I find your post extremely hard to follow, and the laymen's use of the word theory leads to all kinds of misunderstandings. The OP asked why it is called electrical theory and not electrical fact. I answered.

Thank you and God Bless.
Eric, ever the master of tying it all together: the foundation, fundamentals, and practical application.
Much love Mike holt. God bless.
Brian nailed it with “why we need to know as electricians”.
Facts! He sold this video honestly

Welcome to the industry.
Please never stop!

Thank you For taught me so much Electricity theory during all this years...thank you MR HOLT
Sound volume is a bit low.
Been following the channel for a few years, you're a great communicator, the effort is very appreciated.
Starting Electrical Code and Theory Journeyman class this Fall. Super excited! Thank you for the video Mike!
I'm so excited that you are going to be part of this amazing family. Welcome.
Your enthusiasm is inspiring sir.
I love you guys and so much want you to get excited about learning more. So you can better provide for your family.
thank u Mike for making this content. your work is helping understand the code a little better...
Thanks for the content Mike Holt.
I am very pleased to see some introductory material being added to the channel! I look forward to watching it all.
Hi Mike! Thank you for sharing what you know. Can you use 2 legs out 3 legs of a 208/230V, 3 phase power source to power a 208/230v 1 phase unit?
Sure.
This guy is the best!!
Thankyou for making thing better in the world..
That is exactly why I do what I do. Thanks for noticing.
Saludos desde Cali, Colombia. Buen Mike.😉👍
Did you know that I"m Colombian! I am!
@@MikeHoltNEC wuaw, es qué Gran sorpresa, genial.
Amazing
Even the basics need review: such as VERITASIUM re how electricity (really works)
God bless u Mike
Is there a Spanish version and how can I buy it?
There isn't.

Bonding is required for 'fixed' metal parts within 5' not 'metal parts withing 5'.
@@MikeHoltNEC gotcha, thank you Mike
Looking for more explanation
Mike are you going to do a 2023 I’m hoping to buy 2023 version
Yep I am!
Okay thank you .when would I be able to purchase?
Gold!
IEC = International ElectroTECHNICAL Commission
There are two types of electricians, mechanics that know how, and electricians that know why.
Love it
Code is written in blood
