    Hi I have just come across this video , and think you did a Nice job well done 👍. But I think you left the conductors a little bit too long. What I do is grab the conductors in hand in a fist and place the side of my fist flat against the edge of the box the snip the conductors against my thumb and that gives me the perfect length to dress in and enough slack for if the socket needs to be removed or replaced. Also I think you would off been better off using a rotary hammer drill with a chisel bit to cut the boxes in not a multi tool . Other than that nice bit of work mate . 👍

    Hi, how would you wire up your additional fused box to your garage with the existing main fused box. 😊

    That attachment for the grinder looks good! Which vacuum do you use to extract?

    • @abcelectric
      @abcelectric  2 роки тому +1

      The attachment is called MaxVac from Dust Arrest and I just use the ubiquitous Henry vac. Works a treat for what I need

    For the amount of money we have to pay councils under building control I would like them to hold the documentation on what is in the building. Then everyone should be sending up to date info and you’d cut down on the possibility of accidents. Never going to happen though.

    Try not to use jargon . " No grommet in the box " What does that mean ?

    • @abcelectric
      @abcelectric  Рік тому +2

      It's not jargon to anyone vaguely familiar with electrical installations. Look up the word grommet, but as a heads up it's basically a rubber washer. A box is a backbox - the box shaped thing that an accessory (socket, switch etc) screws to. This is not a "How to DIY your electrics" video. It's a Vlog of an electrician at work.

    • @abcelectric
      @abcelectric  Рік тому +1

      Which part of marking walls with lines, running an angle grinder down them and knocking out the middle bit didn't you understand? That's chasing walls. Also, as per my previous reply to you about using "jargon", this is a Vlog channel about electrical work. It is not, and never will be, a channel showing DIYers how to do their own electrical installations. Unless you are fully conversant with BS7671 as a bare minimum and a qualified and certified electrician, attempting ANY electrical work is at best stupid, and at worst could result in fire, injury, death and/or a long stretch of incarceration.
