  • In this video, join me as I document the process of installing electrical conduits and water pipes beneath the floor of a home. Watch as our skilled technician carefully places each conduit and pipe, ensuring everything is perfectly aligned and secure. From the initial planning to the final touches, you'll see the meticulous work that goes into creating a safe and efficient system. Whether you're a DIY enthusiast or simply curious about how things work, this video offers a fascinating glimpse into the behind-the-scenes of home construction.

    In switzerland we lay the electrical pipes in the concrete ceiling. It's much faster and you can pull the wires very easy afterwards.

    The advantage of having the electrical hidden in the ceiling instead of in the floor is that you can use the ceiling light electrical boxes as junction to other stuff. I don't see how they are going to easily thread a wire in those ducts even if using a draw wire, but they didn't show that part. x)

    I finally made time to watch one of your long-form videos. I enjoyed it.
    I noticed that on this job you did not draw the plan on the floors/walls and you didn't cut the channels with a saw. Did you take this video before you started doing that?
    And I'm curious about setting the toilet. It does not look like you use any anchor bolts into the floor to secure the toilet. In the USA we do use two anchor bolts. What prevents your toilet from moving/tipping? The water line?

    What if the house floods?
    That would be my main worry with wires going underneath the tiles. Flood can also occur due to water-overflow or some plumbing breakage.
    Sure it is now well insulated, but thats so many wires over so many decades. Plus there is lights, fans and all application of wires on the ceiling and walls, while there is nothing on the ground. Thus, you will have to anyway put wires through ceiling.

      @@CIFYou Yes, in addition to more then a single conductor for each mechanical connection being an issue. Id also question the choice to use jumpers between breakers. The wire feeding them would be undersized for feeding multiple 25amp breakers, causing a risk of fire. In addition, having parallel wires feeding the breakers from the left and right side of the row, is an issue. The shorter conductor on the left, would have less then half the resistance of the wire feeding the right side, (even if the resistance is tiny, at those short lengths) ensuring that the shorter wire, always carried the bulk of the amperage, and may lead it it failing, and again, fire.

      @@giuseppeblanco1256 It's not so much that. It's more, when you see the size of wire feeding the main 63amp breaker. The conductors on the bottom side of the main breaker, feeding the six 25 amp breakers, should be the same size. Whether its top side of the breaker, or bottom side, the amps will remain the same. - Now, instead you have 2 small conductors feeding the six 25 amp breakers. One at either end. However the conductors are different lengths. Even if its a very small amount, copper wire has resistance. If one conductor is 3x longer then the other. It will have 3x the resistance. Meaning the short one will always have more amps, then the longer one. This would not normally be an issue in most cases, but the main conductors are undersized. - You would need to have 6 individual wires, one to each 25amp breaker. Or main conductors and jumpers that are capable of carrying the full 63 amps of the main breaker

    I see C25 and C32 rated interrupts. This is general house wiring with trip current 5-10 time the rated current. B rated is toasters and other resistive loads or some higher house loads. tripping current lower, like 3-5 time s rated. D rated is for high inductive current with trip currents 10-20 times rated. Not a fan of multiple wires in a breaker...but codes differ.
