The problem isn’t working the long unknown hours, the problem is finding a partner that shares one’s passion for working them.
Great work Cory! I found industrial electrical systems to be very diversified. Yes, please do film your work on other industrial plants.👍

Nick Bundy would love that draw setup👍🏽 Awesome job as always. 👌🏽
AVE has already covered the one click back myth with the drill, since watching his videos my drill bits have stopped falling out 😂
Drilling and tapping sheet metal is OK for thicker sheet but consider looking at "Nut-Serts" or "Riv-Nuts" as an alternate. They will provide sufficient thread to bite and secure. Remember, a bolt/screw should have 2.5 threads at least fully engaded into the opposite thread.
More of this sort of stuff please Cory; this is so cool!
I'm retired now, but worked for leckie board for many years, last few as a fault technician attending LV faults. Lots of substation work, cahnging blown fuses etc. With regard to the phase sync to the generator, when on a training course for connecting 250 and 500 kva trailer mounted generators to a sub station, the instructor told us to watch the ring of LEDs on the generator as they would turn one way then the other, and when in sync the circuit breaker woul close and connect up. One of the lads was watching it very closely, and uttered the words "it's read to close", when the generator and trailer jumed a foot in the air! It turned out the instructor had caught his foot in the sync lead, which was supposed to be connected to the red phase, and carelesly reconnected it to the blue, so it ws out of phase!
😂 Cory: " invite your nan along" 65 year old non-electrician woman watching here, looks forward to the mechanical bit too just because ...well it's all so interesting and I never had the opportunity to do anything like it😂
Being able to solve unexpected problems independently in real-time is a highly desired skill in any industry. For some reason it's hard to teach and learn; some people just have it in them and others don't.
I think our meeting with 400A busbar in ØY25 was more scary then this +2000A intake . 😅 God jobb Cory 👍
The problem I'm finding with working on the UK's electricity networks is a serious shortage of men and a lack of new people coming into the industry. We seem to be playing catch up just keep what we have going, especially when we get storm damage and are out all night getting damaged parts of the network energized again. This then has a knock on effect when it comes to planned outages. Great video bud, thanks.
Absolutely loved this one with Jamie, the dream team pairing!!!!
One of my favourite videos so far, good to see Jamie in his element as well 👏🏼
got it easy with these auto synchroscopes , used to love doing them manually when i was on ships, even got a home brew one made out of incandescent lamps for pairing up small gensets// give it a go some time .. good content.. much more interesting than a board change or a car charger 🤣
Cory - use nut rivets and it'll secure it better. I use loads on HV panels
Really enjoyable video Cory, thank you. To be able to see what happens at the other end when we turn the kettle on is quite a rarity. Definitely more please.
Lovely job and great to see Jamie.
Interesting stuff Cory.More please.
Great video, shows we don’t all work 8-5. Love it when you get to test yourself
