    This is glorious, I've been looking for "greer electric" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Diyarah Electric Freedomify - (search on google ) ? Ive heard some super things about it and my mate got amazing results with it.

    Sam. You are really the best teacher. Everyone else just seems to show off how they can do it but don’t really teach you. You are the best. I have watched a lot and A lot of stuff on electric on all sorts of things but most people are showing you how good they are ! You are teaching man .... feed a person a fish and they eat for a day ... teach the same person how to fish and you change their life. Thanks for the the “ teaching session “. You are the best. Keep it up.

    This is the best electrical demonstration I've come across on youtube. I need to replace quite a bit of knob and tube wiring - a subject no one seems to touch on constructively on youtube - but at least I got some useful information regarding different wire gauges and connection directions. Now if I had the money to tear down all my slat and plaster walls on my 1904 house so I could run wire seamlessly, that would be awesome. Anyway, thanks for the video.

    Elite, read reference books before you start wiring electric, Sam used a metal box for the class, plastic boxes are more common in residential construction, Plastic boxes are less expensive and are easier to work with. Additionally you need to install different sizes of boxes depending on the number of wires inserted in the box; Sam did not discuss the amps of the circuit breakers necessary to connect to the different gauges of wires leading to appliances There is more to know above the color of screws and the colors of the wires that connects to the screws.

    Thanks so much, this is perfect. I didn't know about the 6 inches but it makes sense. I have a couple of outlets in our crawlspace without the proper metal boxes I need to house in order to be code. This makes me feel more confident in doing it. I was happy to see the wrapping the ground around the ground screw like a hook, I heard someone else mentioning about installing the wire that way so the screw pulls in the wire rather than against the wire, good call. Thanks again.
