    Looks like somebody paid attention during Scouts during 'knot tying'? It just takes a little thinking outside the box and before you know it something you have learned might actually have a real world application. Nicely done vid, concise and educational, BRAVO! I will definitely share once I have mastered the technique. I think you could be on to something here 'cause I remember on the farm learning a bunch of different knots, you should experiment and make some more videos! Again, well done! Thank you, Hacktuber.

      Since you know the cable will slip quote a bit you can start to tie the knot with the insulation as part of it if that makes sense.

    • @nothankyou5524
      @nothankyou5524 Рік тому

      It's for show, I'm sure. Obviously, based on what the guy did, you don't need that much exposed wire. I use a similar knot, one I solder to meet NEC. No e r d to expose as much as was exposed in the example. Besides, even as a homeowner, are you not using 2 to 3 layers for both insulation and esthetics, most non professionals seem to do?

      Or make an approved NEC connection, as long as it's permanently connected. Ever hear of solder? Try to untie it. NEC does not disallow properly and permanently connected wire. I carry a copy of a letter stating that at all times, in my car, my truck, my took bags, and my person. Don't leave home without it.

    • @nothankyou5524
      @nothankyou5524 Рік тому +2

      If it's soldered, which is considered a permanent connection by the NEC, there should be no problem if the inspector really knows his stuff. I use a similar knot w/solder, and carry a letter from the NEC which states they do not disallow approved correctly connected cable with a permanent connection. Try untying a solder connection.

    Faster way is traditional way i meant right way but this method what you had shown to us is more splashy but not enough effective anyways i came here to learn that just for fun and blow minds to my friends but if someone thinking that’s the right way please be careful because wires don’t wanna be rolled and they overheated fast so if you guys don’t want to have campfire then use simply crossing connection starting from middle of opened wires 😅

    • @nothankyou5524
      @nothankyou5524 Рік тому +1

      How would this overheat? Resistance is less through the knot. It's not a pipe or a duct. In reality, it's technically adiabatic.

    The splice /join is just generate extra heat where the knot is compared to the wire which will in turn case extra heat through the rest of the wire causing it to burn or blow the load it's connected to

      You assume high amp current 100% of the time on a live circuit?
      Applications it could be used on include a low voltage switching circuit that is live only milliseconds per day and it will do fine for a long time.

    • @JordanITC
      @JordanITC Рік тому +1

      Yeah this is more for a quick fix on something perhaps in the field. Done similar things with switch cord used to turn equipment on an off. Only 12v is running through it and honestly this isn’t a hazard in that kind of condition. Obviously you wouldn’t use this for any kind of serious electrical work.

    • @nothankyou5524
      @nothankyou5524 Рік тому

      Not a chance. There is absolutely no increase in resistance. If anything, resistance reduces through the not and returns to prior resistance
      In essence, it's an adiabatic event

    • @nothankyou5524
      @nothankyou5524 Рік тому +1

      You may not know of what you speak. You may want to look into NEC regs. BTW, a knot of cable, which this is, as it is not a wire, is not like a pipe or vent or duct. Mass reduces resistance, so in essence, it's adiabatic. My masters, as silly as it was, IMO, was based on a very similar similar example w/adiabatic over tones.

    I have one question please reply..
    Is it as good as if the both wire were single wire?
    I mean if the wires were sing(not cut), then say it could pass 10 A current....
    After cutting and connecting again like the video above will it able to pass 10A current like the single wire?

    • @nothankyou5524
      @nothankyou5524 Рік тому

      Nothing will ever be as good as an unbroken single wire regardless of how it is reconnected, if your work requires that. And if required by spec, it's required by spec. Nothing you can do. But proper splices are used every day. For all intents and purposes, in the eyes of the gods of physics, a light switch contains the equivalent of splices.

    • @nothankyou5524
      @nothankyou5524 Рік тому +1

      Nobody leaves that much wire out unless for demonstration. I use a similar knot for broken thermostat and other communication wiring. When soldered and insulated properly, it's a no brainer in my opinion
      The last thing I'd ever let anyone do is re-bury a crimp connector.

    @naturetruth5218 Рік тому +1

    As good as video teaching how to tie two strings using fishing knob. Now you not only wasted lot of wire, but are also left with long strips of bare wire to insulate. A silly idea. Just twist them together and use electrical tape to insulate and secure is cheapest way for household power cables. For appliances thin wires with tight spacing, there are commercial connectors and heat sleeves.
    Btw, using pen knife to strip wire casing may damage the outer strands of wires and weaken it, do with care and only when you have no wire stripper that cost just a few dollars. A scissor may also do the job easier but a few strands of copper wire likely get damage too.

    • @nothankyou5524
      @nothankyou5524 Рік тому

      Who would leave that much other than for demonstration. And in reality, properly insulated wire is properly insulated wire. As for the connection, licensed electrician or not, check with the NEC. The number, I do not carry in my head, but their response to my inquiry, I certainly carry on my person.
