    In the first place why would anybody want an electrical outlet next to the toilet?.. 😂

  • @mercmax4899

    The real question here why is the toilet in the living room lmao

    Who puts outlet near a toilet

  • @user-wb4dp1el4s

    Why are you using a 20v. 15v is sufficient.

    Dude for the love of God do a freaking close up we can't see 🙈

    Sorry but I think you need to tell viewers what you mean specifically when you say "home run line" (googling it gets a lot of baseball and betting references for example), I think you mean a line going directly to a breaker with no other device between it and the breaker, but that is only my guess. I watch a lot of electrical DYI videos from many different creators, this is the only channel I have watched using that terminology. Clarity with electrical work is fundamental.

    Great vid man.. one issue thogh.. i know you like to have your oulets look like a face and i do too but you would want to put it upside down for an extra measure of safety in case the wire gets pulled down if its upside down the ground rod will be esposed rather than the two hots being slightly exposed..

    I know Bonnie said she didn’t know if people liked the progress updates on her channel, tell her that I love seeing the progress! I think a lot of people do! Also these videos are really helpful, I officially know more than my boyfriend about house flipping.

    A outlet by the toilet? 🤔

    You have the outlet upside down, by code ground needs to be up not down.

    I watched three videos and you're the only one who explained the load/downstream part thanks!!

    You do a very good job of explaining and demonstrating. You don't over explain or go off on tangents. Thank you!

    Your video explained exactly what I needed to learn. I have an RV that has power in and a series load going out. I blew the GFCI by using one of the plugs in the series and it killed the GFCI and now I understand how the other plugs are wired plus how to place the wires into the GFCI. Thank you!

    Thank you for this video. I had the feed and output swapped and no power for days. Your notes helped me realize that and now we are up and running

    Excellent video. Solved my problem when you mentioned the gfci has to be the first receptacle in the line from the panel. Chased that gremlin for two days. Thank you!

    Thank you, I couldn't figure out why my gfci want working and this video helped me figure out why. I was running a wire to a pantry so I could plug in an led strip. I wanted to turn at the same time as the laundry light so I wired into the circuit after the switch. After watching this I learned that GFCIs can't be switched. Thanks

    Dude! You need to be on TV! I can't figure out which was better, your instruction, or your outtakes at the end. I both learned something and laughed my a$$ off! Excellent work, great personality! Thanx....

  • @patrickgreen2361

    Your video really helped me out. Previous ELECTRICIAN had load vs line switched. Thank you very much. New construction. ❤

    You saved the day! Thanks for the easy to understand and practical breakdown. I didn’t realize load was the downstream line. Had the hot line reversed. Thanks again!
