You had me at "let's get this cracked open" 🍻 that deserves a like ,🤣🤣
I'm not an electrician by any means, automotive technician for Honda. But I love your videos. I have zero idea what you're talking about 95% of the time but I really enjoy learning about your trade!
Purchased a 4.5 mil slotted screwdriver from Loadout. I appreciate the tip - no pun intended.
Thanks for the video mate , I’m an improver currently working on a job where I’ve done loads of glands , the tips have really helped.
Great video, can’t fault your super mature attitude.
that was a perfect video instruction, nice one 👍
I missed that step when I was taught back in the day…let’s crack this open 🤣
Nice video bud, I’ve always check before putting the gland in that the olive is in the correct way because I’ve struggled before then looked and it’s been in the wrong way form the factory 🤦🏻♂️🤣 I’ve also had ones that don’t have an olive to start with!!
Wholesalers getting cheap gear! So I always check now as it saves fighting with it later 🤦🏻♂️🤣
Keep it up buddy!
Sparky from the USA here, never have I ever used steel armor cable or heard of anyone who has, is that a common wiring method in the UK?There were some Sparkys that flew out from Germany to help work on an extruding machine. They ran their cables very neat back to the MCC but then looked at our conduit rack funny like they've never seen big conduits before.
What's the reason you guys use armoured cable so much? Really curious because I've been an industrial electrician in Germany now for a long time and never saw armoured cable except for some really high voltage underground stuff (think 6kV/10kV). If the cab!e is ran on a tray or in an enclosure, isn't that protection enough?
For extra protection the steel is earthed offering extra mechanical protection and also a fault path if you put a spade through it hitting the live conductors.
Also means you can run it and not necessarily require RCD protection for distribution circuits in some instances. So usually used for sub mains or in applications where damage might occur. It means you can run it without extra containment for protection.
Commercial environments, warehouses, agricultural & garden lighting etc as a few instances.
L ask myself that same question
Great video mate. Gotta say though: Your looking absolutely knackered. Try taking things a bit easier, the work will still be there after it's killed us off.
@@residualelectrical : Ooh I can remember those days, yep that's enough to make the best of us look knackered. Enjoy them while you can though mate, seems like you only blink & they're all grown up.
I turned off when the beer appeared.
Don’t think the ring is tapered on CMP branded glands, just a ring. Correct me if I’m wrong. The “cone part” actually comes off on the CW20 ones too. Which is I feel is more of a hindrance.
Still like using a proper electricians knife but the Stanley blades are handy.
How do you strip long lengths of pvc metal sheathed fp cable, is there a special tool because a Stanley knife does not work.
I like the Sacs tool for armoureds; more expensive than the Armour Slice but I find it does a neater job of ringing the steel.
I find also Armour Slice blades can be short lived, but tbf that might just be me
Armor slice blades are poor. A good tip is to cut your own from decent hacksaw blades 👌👍
You could always buy an exhaust cutter for the bigger SWA's
Must give an armour slice a go one of these days spent too many years using a hacksaw to try anything else. Must go and watch your 2022 loadout video soon, been struggling for time for the longer videos.
Try the armour slice, brilliant bit of kit
I show video to my wife, at first she appears enthusiastic, but after she too tired for glanding tonight :(
Can't go wrong with hawke 501/453/univ
What happened to the “challenges” of stripping the grey outer insulation from around the single insulated cores. I’d love to see the professional way of doing it.
