“I’m not just saying this, as a flawed man I’m just trying to make my father proud” fuck this hits close to home. Absolutely love your channel. You’ve really helped me understand it’s not just about making a living but to be proud with your work, small or big.
Thanks Tom.......I love your work ethic......old school in a young man....nice to see. How sad am I when I get excited looking at cables that are clipped neatly in a straight line!
Blimey, Tom, what a turn up. You wired my garden studio up in Nottingham a few years ago. The garden office poeple have gone out of business, but it's good to see you still going! Cheers.
Just a tip for your switches / switch wires. I usually leave the feeds blank at the switch and mark the switchwires with a bar or 2. Alot easier to distinguish and don't have to worry about the pen being rubbed off
Excellent mate. Just found your channel and have binge watched all the vids. I'm not a 'proper' sparky but it is a hobby of mine. And I'm self-employed too (at a boring desk job) so enjoy hearing about the finance/admin side of the business too.
Thanks for another good one. Re fixing screws for back boxes: strictly speaking, countersunk screws are a no no: insulation can be cut by the screws if wiring space is cramped. Use round head screws.
I had a cable reel stand that comprised of two separate gizmos on either end of the conduit. Could use whatever length of conduit you wanted, so no limit on number of drums - excellent for multiple singles in conduit, all pulled in together. None of the problems you talk about. I don't know if you can still get them, but with a little welding you could make them.
Very neat workmanship. The clipping makes the first fix for me. Whatever T&E cable I clip is the same distance 300 mm apart or a hammer length so to speak!
As well as labelling I always knot the end of the feed, nick the switch line and leave ongoing feed as is. If multiple s\w lines then increasing multiple nicks. Same number of nicks for 3 cores as per circuit.
Just wanted to say i love your videos, I don't know why i like them since i'm not an electrician, I'm not going to be an electrician and i have little interest in electronics like this but i watched one of your vids after it sat in my recommended for over a week just to get rid of it and now im hooked :P
Definitely agree with the recommendation of a small claw hammer- lost count of the number of wooden handled pin hammers I bust levering stuff... couldn't find a little claw hammer easily though- embarrassingly ended up with a poundland one. Great for clipping cables up ladders though as the hammer fits in the flappy pockets on my snickers trousers unlike the full size one
I have had the same issue with down light drawings. Pictures worked ok but I use cam scanner now it’s free and means you have a pdf file to relate to the job that you can sync across devices even if you loose your phone. Great vid Tom keep them coming
Tom, I recently purchased one of those rolling kneepads that you have and showed in your van tour video. Every time I take it to site everybody thinks its the funniest thing ever but they always ask where can I get one of these. Haha. Great videos keep it up.
I'm surprised you use countersunk screws, it leaves a sharp edge, I've always used roundhead screws in metal box's. I've come across a fault caused by pushing all the cables to the back and catching the edge of the screw.
If you need more than one glow period at -6 degrees then I think you need new glow plugs. At here in Finland I have B5/3B Passat and its starts okay and with only using glow plugs one time. My friend had MK1 Seat Toledo and it didn't start at summer when some of the glow plugs was dead. I think the reason was lower compression which needed glowing period even at summer.
Allmost forgot my Passat starts okay at -10... When its - 15 usually I use glow plugs only once but some times second time is needed. After -20 second or third time is needed if block heater is not used before start.
Well if it's gonna be a closed ceiling, then in most cases i would just leave it above the ceiling. The reason for it is that if in longer terms they need to be changed, you can change them. Since it will not be stuck some where over ceiling, but if you do it your way it will be stuck most likely. it is not a bad thing to do, it's just the preference for most people.
Rewires can be so awkward. Not so much the work but it's all the crap that builders or customers have in your way and expect you to move around or work around. Its just time consuming. Can really drive you crazy. Your cabling is very tidy. Your right it does give it the pro touch. Great vids keep them coming.
Ciaran Crinnigan I do commercial electric and I'm just over my first year of being an electrician and I can relate when you say working around stuff can drive you crazy lol
Ciaran Crinnigan just charge by the hour. And take your time moving stuff and tell them you will charge extra. Of course some times you cant take your time but when you can you might as well
Interesting to see how it works there. Here in Netherlands we work quite different with the cables and the metal boxes are a big no go here many years for now.
Are metal boxes also not permitted when surface mounted, for example in a workshop with cables in metal conduit between? Metal boxes in the wall have to be earthed here, the same as if they were surface mounted.
Hi Tom, I am coming to the end of my 3rd year as an apprentice now and all that stands in my way of being fully qualified is my AM2. any advice as i heard its quite difficult. cheers tom!
Another great video, I too prefer number ten screws, a PZ2 bit fits more nicely in the head, a PZ2 in a number 8 screw often cams out and destroys the PZ2 bit eventually.
It's funny, before I started watching your video, I was never the biggest fan of wiring loop feeds directly to the switch box, probably because most the houses I'd worked in had ceiling pendant and it seems a shame not to utilise the 3 plate ceiling base. I can see how beneficial your method is with regards to downlighters and decorative fittings. How will you terminate the loop feeds at the switch box... maintenence-free connectors?
Isn't it normal in your country to use prefixed pipes with wires in when rewiring a house? And what type of cable do you use for open installation directly on the wall?
What i do for the Switchwires is that i cut the wire on an angle so you always know which one is the switchwire. Just in case the writing fades.. thoughts of that people?
I notch the ends for switch Wires, M for feed in feed out (mains in, mains out), aswell as writing on with a sharpie. X for extractor fans or outside lights (depending on where the switch Is it's pretty easy to differentiate)
Couldn't agree more about the small hammer. They weigh a lot less in the tool bag too. Axminster Tools. "Vaughan Little Pro" great little hammer for anyone that wants one.
Mike G x😀 strange isn't it, I look at a lot of these type of vids grass looks greener & all that plus they don't seem to be rushing & panicking as much as I do
for the occasional time saving tips that will make your life easier, and because you're not doing it. LMAO this newfangled interwebbery thing is really handy for sharing tips ;)
Hi, thanks for your videos. I just wanted to know, do you need to put cables in capping if they are going to be covered over by dot and dab plasterboard or can you just clip direct? Thanks
How do you decide how your going to run your cables, e.g chase the walls or surface mount ? Also when chasing how do you avoid pipes in walls and stuff ???
Quick question... In Italy I always see electricians running wires inside electrical conduits rather than using premade cables. Why isn't it the case in the UK?
Can someone explain to me why his cablingis in the open I know its double insulated but alot of oversees videos I watch people wire without PVC conduit. I'm in my 2nd going for 3rd year as an apprentice and here we use conduit to save time and effort since most of oour work is new installations for commercial use and a few rewires here and there when an owner wants his whole house rewired when rennovating it...
Why use screws to fix your capping? Just get yourself a bag of 1.5 inch clout nails, drill either side of capping, no need to drill through lip of capping. Then use red rawlplugs and whack nails in so that nail head overlaps lip of capping. Get yourself a selection of clout nails to find what suits your needs best. You won't go back to screws once you're used to this method. Also, when marking cables give the sheath of cable a scrape with knife, it makes a better writing surface. Cheers love the video's.
This is the first video from you I've seen, got a recommendation from bigdotclive. I have one thing to say about my first impression: my dude, your sound is AWESOME. apart from that london traffic looks messy af
Hi Thommas, I work in central London doing telecoms and network installation and faults. Watching you work just reminds me how I get on every day. Keep it up mate. Shahan
Nowt wrong with taking pride in your work lad! Looks so much more professional when you clip wiring... Unlike that bodge job in that cellar a while ago :/
Diefers Dashcam UK hard to say that I havnt seen the bodge job in question but every job different Just because didn’t use a bit of capping don’t make it a bodge . After amendment 3 it not even a requirement to put capping over cables just good practice if anything
Alvin, I’m not sure it’s revelant, I’ve removed cables 40 years old which were buried in plaster and no deterioration at all. I’m not saying don’t cap just never ever seen cables affected by plaster, have you?
Liking the vids Nagy! You may have seen us drive past you the other day in Kings Cross and we shouted “Nagy” out the window! Just a quick one. We have an ongoing problem with who connects up the heating controls, us or the plumbers? We never have a problem with installing a spur for the boiler but who is it down to. To connect up the cylinder, valves, pumps and manifold for UFH.
I remember seeing you! Didn’t catch what it was you said as you were driving past too quick. Next time wind your window down and fist tap! 🤣 Yeah when it comes to plumbing wiring it seems to be a grey area; some sparks will do it, others won’t. If you’re comfortable doing it then rock on in my opinion. 👍

re: the small hammer, I carry a rolson (don't laugh) 6 inch long hammer for fitting into small gaps. So bloody useful. My colleague makes fun of me for having a toffee hammer.... till he slams his thumb with his beaste of a hammer. And 100% on the intuition thing. The shared floor void thing is less common down here in the 'sarf' but always be aware of your location
Hello Mr Thomas Just question about testers I have Fluke 323 (clamp meter) Fluke T150 (Voltage tester) Planning to buy aditional tester to cover all other basics need in job like you do what would you recomend me to buy? Looking at Kewtech KT63 which got LOOP, RCD, CONTINUITY, INSULATION funcions to test Do you think this is enough to cover job like Yours or there is something missing in this tester i might need in future to test, what would you recommend? Thank You
I’m an American that has a crazy question if you go to the lumberyard to get a board do you get a 2x4 which is really 1.5X3.5 inches or do you call it something else using the metric system and the same thing with 4x8 plywood? I know your an electrician but I would like to know and if you would have any idea if mainland Europe uses as well thanks form an American
“If I can pass on a bit of knowledge, It’s a good thing.” I salute you Sir, for your Channel and your workmanship.
"working hard to make your father proud of you"....that's beautiful Tom. My dad was a top contracts manager in my town...great quote...cheers ..
Just love the professionalism. It's what the eye doesn't see that makes the difference.
“I’m not just saying this, as a flawed man I’m just trying to make my father proud” fuck this hits close to home. Absolutely love your channel. You’ve really helped me understand it’s not just about making a living but to be proud with your work, small or big.
A lot of your content is so valuable for any potential client. Giving clear and concise knowledge of Electrical Work.
Just sat down with a coffee and a piece of cake after finishing off some work, and there's a new Thomas Nagy video. Perfect.
I do like watching your videos, some very honest and revealing moments there about making your dad proud. Fair play to you.
Thanks Tom.......I love your work ethic......old school in a young man....nice to see. How sad am I when I get excited looking at cables that are clipped neatly in a straight line!
Blimey, Tom, what a turn up. You wired my garden studio up in Nottingham a few years ago. The garden office poeple have gone out of business, but it's good to see you still going! Cheers.
Wow that’s quite deep. We appreciate your videos Tom. Keep up the great work.
I am an Electrician/HVAC guy in the US. It amazes me how different the wiring is from our country. Keep up the good work.
What a brilliant video. Love your honesty.
"Working hard to make your father proud"
You teach me a lot as I’m also a electrician, nice to see how others do things
Great work as always Tom. It's funny that I do this all day then I watch you doing at night :)
ecsko me too... Im sad lol.. 😂
muzikman2008 hahaha lol
Funny :)
Great video Thomas. I'm looking to starting a course this year so look forward to watching more
Just a tip for your switches / switch wires. I usually leave the feeds blank at the switch and mark the switchwires with a bar or 2. Alot easier to distinguish and don't have to worry about the pen being rubbed off
Thanks for the advice and tips Thomas.
Lol, the car wash behind your head at the back of the van in the beginning has my name on it
Excellent mate.

As an americian electrician, I find these videos fascinating.
Thanks for uploads nice videos greetings from Canada
great video good explanation on the jobs keep up the work
Electrician from the US and you got my sub. Interesting to see how it's done over there. Keep it up.
Very neat workmanship. The clipping makes the first fix for me. Whatever T&E cable I clip is the same distance 300 mm apart or a hammer length so to speak!
Great vids Thomas. Keep doing them. I like the turning materials into CASH part!!!
As well as labelling I always knot the end of the feed, nick the switch line and leave ongoing feed as is. If multiple s\w lines then increasing multiple nicks. Same number of nicks for 3 cores as per circuit.

Its nice to have live / neutral in the switch back box as it allows you to add various RF / Wifi switches and relays for home automation

good tip on the single thread #10 screws. Thanks.
Great video.

I'll mention this in the next video on the second fix phase; good point ;-)
Slot head yeah maybe, but I can't say I've ever across a wire that's been cut by the edge of a pozi head screw.
Alvin Ashman well I have and it was caused by a countersunk screw head catching the line, metal box's aren't made to be used with countersunk heads.
If you need more than one glow period at -6 degrees then I think you need new glow plugs. At here in Finland I have B5/3B Passat and its starts okay and with only using glow plugs one time.

in the new regulation will you still be able to run cable along the joist or you must use conduit?
At 10:00 your best weapon is the non-contact mains detector you used there while talking about your head.
Well if it's gonna be a closed ceiling, then in most cases i would just leave it above the ceiling. The reason for it is that if in longer terms they need to be changed, you can change them. Since it will not be stuck some where over ceiling, but if you do it your way it will be stuck most likely. it is not a bad thing to do, it's just the preference for most people.
You know where you run the cable through the joists in the corner of the walls, would the wall be battened out to board over the cables ?
Great video bud 👍

Tomas try Orbix wood screws for your boxes and trunking far better than countersunks good for trunking and mounting Boards too.
Hey mate I love your vids and I want you to do more of them I have subbed and liked
Love your videos, quick question and no malice. Why do you use PVC capping behind a 'stud' plasterboard wall? I
"Always work with wiring, like it's hot!" One of many things, that my pops repeated.
Thanks Tom, Better video than what weight shitty batteries are ;) how would you have carried out the work if ceiling had been in place.?
It's funny, before I started watching your video, I was never the biggest fan of wiring loop feeds directly to the switch box, probably because most the houses I'd worked in had ceiling pendant and it seems a shame not to utilise the 3 plate ceiling base.

What i do for the Switchwires is that i cut the wire on an angle so you always know which one is the switchwire. Just in case the writing fades.. thoughts of that people?
dan kal I mark them with 3 nicks
dan kal exactly what I do. Given up with Sharpies, biros marking up switch drops.
2 parallel knicks for me
I do the same I put a nick in the cable for the switch and leave the other cable so I know they are the feeds
I notch the ends for switch Wires, M for feed in feed out (mains in, mains out), aswell as writing on with a sharpie. X for extractor fans or outside lights (depending on where the switch Is it's pretty easy to differentiate)
I'm working on a house that litterally had half running off one breaker, and the rest of the breakers dead ending everywhere, that was fun lol!
Couldn't agree more about the small hammer. They weigh a lot less in the tool bag too.
Axminster Tools. "Vaughan Little Pro" great little hammer for anyone that wants one.
Harvey Smith You'd think somebody would have invented a stapler that fires plastic cable clips into wooden joinst by now.
whats the make or model of that small sds battery drill? looks so handy!
You have a lovely voice there Mr.
Please put more of this gold dust advice on, thank you very much
When you rip out old wiring do you get the leftover wire for yourself?
👍👍 well done
What screws are you using to screw capping in noticed your not wall plugging first
Why do i spend all day wiring and changing Dist Boards like I have for the past 40 years and come home and watch someone else do it !!
Mike G x😀 strange isn't it, I look at a lot of these type of vids grass looks greener & all that plus they don't seem to be rushing & panicking as much as I do
Mike g, coz your addicted to a sparky life
for the occasional time saving tips that will make your life easier, and because you're not doing it. LMAO
this newfangled interwebbery thing is really handy for sharing tips ;)
How does the plasterer cope with that capping they sometimes rip it off and nail cables instead round conduit is better but you
Have to chase deeper
Same reason I do visual inspections of stores while shopping with the wife
subscribed, i am an electrician from Finland :)
Hi, thanks for your videos.
I just wanted to know, do you need to put cables in capping if they are going to be covered over by dot and dab plasterboard or can you just clip direct? Thanks
How do you decide how your going to run your cables, e.g chase the walls or surface mount ? Also when chasing how do you avoid pipes in walls and stuff ???
SS mozza The installation method is dictated by the customer, what the customer wants, the customer gets. Stud detector for embedded pipes.
Alvin Ashman are them stud detectors any good for pipes what one would you reccomend?? Cheers
Great stuff
Where do you get your pvc capping
If you had the choice of an apprenticeship in plumbing or electrics, which would you choose and why?
how come that you are not using extra safety for the wires(copex) when You posing all the cables on wood?
Can you put job specs and material list in the subscriptions by any chance ?
Hi Tom, great work. Where do you get your printed apparel from?
Do you scrap the old wiring yourself?
Quick question... In Italy I always see electricians running wires inside electrical conduits rather than using premade cables. Why isn't it the case in the UK?
What’s that little box on back door of your van?
Adam Gaskell it's water for washing hands mate
Fold down sink with water and heater.
Watch the Van Tour video
Think he means on the outside... if so, Card holder I think, for business cards.
Adam Gaskell it's a sink
Great videos. How many gopros do you use?
Can we have a vid of you kitting out your new van
Do you strip out the copper from wire you removed and weigh it in?
I'd guess he sells it as is. It's a lot of work stripping the copper out of old cable.
Frazer Telford i strip 25mm and up. Anything smaller i weigh in as dirty.
Geez that's fresh boy 😂😂
Clips are there for a reason, it stops wires getting caught in the future by other sparks, running new cable
Can someone explain to me why his cablingis in the open I know its double insulated but alot of oversees videos I watch people wire without PVC conduit.
I'm in my 2nd going for 3rd year as an apprentice and here we use conduit to save time and effort since most of oour work is new installations for commercial use and a few rewires here and there when an owner wants his whole house rewired when rennovating it...
Hay mate it looks cool there
Why do you cap your cables when its not required?
Hi Thomas, can u tell us how much u charge per point in this kind of job?
i never charge per point. way too many variables in refurbs. I'll discuss this in a video
How long until a new van appears?
gday thomas do you use a cable pusher or puller for the roof installs? or is it just up and over each rung of the rafters
Does the price go up if you can’t get good video? Say if it’s got crawl space work or something.
What electric van are you thinking of buying mate?
What did people do before Screwfix?
Go to an electrical wholesaler.
Focus DIY 😅
Why use screws to fix your capping? Just get yourself a bag of 1.5 inch clout nails, drill either side of capping, no need to drill through lip of capping.

Just because didn’t use a bit of capping don’t make it a bodge .
After amendment 3 it not even a requirement to put capping over cables just good practice if anything
Clipping not capping
Dan Pay Capping the wiring prevents the wiring from premature deterioration caused by the plaster.
Alvin, I’m not sure it’s revelant, I’ve removed cables 40 years old which were buried in plaster and no deterioration at all. I’m not saying don’t cap just never ever seen cables affected by plaster, have you?
Supersparks no not so far
Great video as always, thank you. What do you use to keep your capping secure?

Hello Mr Thomas
Just question about testers
I have
Fluke 323 (clamp meter)
Fluke T150 (Voltage tester)
Planning to buy aditional tester to cover all other basics need in job like you do what would you recomend me to buy?
Looking at Kewtech KT63 which got LOOP, RCD, CONTINUITY, INSULATION funcions to test
Do you think this is enough to cover job like Yours or there is something missing in this tester i might need in future to test, what would you recommend?
Thank You

Wine comes in litres. Beer comes in pints. It's a country almost transitioned fully to metric, but a few holdouts remain.
