There is nothing “slow” about you. You are a bright young lady who is doing amazing work and enjoying what you do. Honestly, I envy your knowledge. Thank you for sharing it with others.

Yes! Keep promoting the trades!! HVAC guy here.

There's just something so satisfying about a clean wiring job.

I wish I would have watched your videos before I wired my panel.........I thought I did a great job.........but now............not so much. Keep up the great work.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. Always find your videos interesting and your level of detail impressive. I personally took Masonry class in high school. My main takeaway was attention to details and I didn’t want to work that hard for the remainder of my life. Got a 2 year degree in electronics and worked for a year wiring control panels. As an elective in college I took a 3 phase theory class and as I started to burnout working in a factory spotted a job add for power dispatcher and applied. As luck would have it I got the job and retired as a senior system operator +32 years later. Never sell yourself short. If you ever get tired of working in inclement conditions there are numerous jobs out there that pay well to people with real world experience. Wishing you the best.

Love hearing this! I was the 100% A+ grades sister and star athlete of my family lol. I hit 25 and the career I pursued makes me hate my life. I do currently have a decent job, but it sure isn’t the one. I’ve decided to give being an electrician a try! Took my test and now waiting for an interview! Thank you for inspiring others and providing info. It sure helps! I’ve been helping the maintenance guys at my job when they need it and it’s been so fun. Hoping this works out!

Im making this comment as soon as you said “slow” without continuing the video. I have some words of wisdom a wise one once told me: “slow is smooth and smooth is slow”. Look at your work and attention to detail. Enough said and I’m 100% certain EVERYONE agrees.

Obviously there is something you're good at - wiring! I've got a degree in electrical engineering and I remember one classmate who always got better grades than I did until we got to hands on labs. I already had electronics experience and was familiar with the components we were going to use. But my smarter classmate was at a total loss in the lab. Ended up dropping the course and taking it again. And I had another friend who graduated around the same time but asked me if the outlets in our houses were wired in series or parallel. I understood that when I was about 12 years old. Unfortunately he didn't have the hands on experience and they didn't teach that in electrical engineering. Everyone has different skills and yours is wiring (and probably other things too).

I had to look up TBI, If its what I think it is, all I can say is wow! Look at you now. Mad respect!

Only reason baby sister is so good is because she had you to look up to. Keep up the good graft 👌👊💪

You are an electrical install artist.

The best way to subsequently change the insulation color of the active phase or the neutral conductor or the protective conductor is to use an endless shrink tube with hot glue inside. Simply cut it to the appropriate length, pull it over the conductor and heat it with a hot air gun. For very large cross-sections, simply use a gas burner to heat them. The hot glue then bonds the shrink tube perfectly to the conductor so that the color coding adheres permanently to it later. This happens very quickly, especially with many wires, and offers a reliable and safe form of marking.

Im a retired electrician, 40 years, your awesome, very nice work!!,, but please be careful with that knife, I recomen buying cut resistant glove

Learning under someone can DEFINITELY make or break your journey, I had a horrible person in the beginning and I was questioning to just leave the trade, luckily enough I got replaced to work under someone else and it made my learning experience so much better, I think my contractor saw I was getting trouble so he made a choice to switch me up with someone else.

I unfortunately had the same experience very early on. The few guys I worked with at the first contractor were FING a holes. But I took the crap and eventually got away from them. I changed my attitude and focus more on learning and work. I moved on to another contractor and was there for 23 1/2 years, I was the top guy but got tried of the BS. I moved to a testing company and now hold 10 masters licenses for the company. I have more than doubled my salary and make over $200k a year so it worked out for me.

@@Che9009 stick with it you will do fine but it takes time to get respect from other coworkers. I can tell you that if you really try and learn and understand how things work you will gain a ton of respect once people realize you know what you’re doing and can troubleshoot and figure stuff out on your own. Some people get it and some never do. You will get out of it what you put in it. I have a friend that worked under me, he worked at the last place where I worked. He stayed there 3 years after I left. Last year he started his own business and makes more money in 2 weeks now then he made In 4 months at the last place. He will easily make $200k plus this year. He has tons of business. He’s been in the trade for 15 years or so. If you ever have any questions don’t hesitate to ask.

Your videos are really enjoyable to watch! As someone who chose a trade career over college, I can assure you the world would be a giant mess without us! Keep up the good work (electrical AND videos!)

That Milwaukee 2753-20 Imapct Driver you're using though older is a great tool. If you have the opportunity you should check out the Milwuakee 2760-20 Surge Hydraulic Driver, I think it would work better for the type of fasteners you are working with. The torque output is smoother with considerably less vibration. Also, really liked your video.

Magnetic Tray is Genius

Amazing !!! Simply Amazing....

Great work Karley, ❤

Also I like you had to take the breakers out of the breaker box in order to put them into the breaker box. 😄

Could you put white heatshrink tubing on the blues to make them white or would that violate code requirements? I do this regularly for automotive restoration to match the car's OEM wiring color scheme. I'm peanut butter and jelly of your panel organization, so clean!

It might peel off after a while but with the spiraling, it'd only affect the ends. I've seen electrical tape peel off, especially when the weather is hot.

Thank you for sharing your personal experience, I am learning a lot from you. Who knows, one day we could find ourselves in this trade..

Some good electrical and camera work. Keep it up

Your soo amazing at what u do and awesome videos too

Nice result!

Caked up fr. That tour shirt 🔥

You know what the string inside the cable is for... Clean panel though. Good job.

Nice wiring on the panel❤

Get a torque screwdriver for breakers and wire bars.

Just last week I had to use white tape on place wires in a box as the original electrician seemed to have used black and white wires randomly.

Nice job

Cool lady 👍🙂

"Sister Olympics," haha...

The right tool for the job is not exclusive to being an electrician. As a helicopter mechanic, not only does the company I work for supply specialty tools called out by the manufacturers, but my personal tool box has tools that make my life easier.

He'll ya the trades are awesomethats why it's called the skilled trades😎

We don't have much 575 three phase in the US but I worked on it once near the Canadian border.

To color wires back in the day I used to grab a glove and put some paint on my hand (only a little at a time) and run down the length of the wire. No idea if this was to code, or any kind of best practice, but it worked and those wires are still colored white, black and green to this day.....

You have a new sub, pretty good work. Very honest too. And yes I watched this at x1.5 because you are very slow 😂, fun content

Am also work an electrician in Montreal, I wish if am part of your team you look so professional🌹❤

You are so beautiful. You BF is a very lucky guy. Such positive energy you give out.

You're in a trade which will always keep food on your plate, you don't have to worry about it after work, maybe you're quicker than you give yourself credit for.

Shrink tube is the best way to color your wires. It takes more time, money, and tools. But that's the best way. Or just order the right cable for your codes.

as a 70yr old retire master plumber i wood wood pay big money if we had guys could do neet work like that

so that three phase panel, with double breakers, do you place them to rotate the load.. first breaker on a & b, second on b&c, third on c& a etc? i know its not a "how to" video but... , and i doubt ill ever see a three phase panel again [retired] but when i was working some panels were high leg and some were delta.. but our electrician always put the double breakers so they rotated around on delta and alternated on high leg so every double breaker had one side on the high leg.. i think you do much neater work than we ever did but im very curious about how that panel is wired.

I was hoping my 13yo daughter would get into a trade. She has her own ideas. Oh well. 😊

When you terminate grounded conductor you should mark what circuit they are part of so you don't have to cut neat bundle of ty rapped white wires.

As a European master electrician im always fascinated by North American electrical installations. To me your new electrical panels look like something I'd be ripping out from an old house built in the 1930's over here. European panel material is mostly all touch free now with insulated bus and collector bars. Housing of most components and inside of the cabinet is made out of. Also zip ties are banned in panels as per code so we use organizing loops and other patent systems. Karly I'd recommend you check out European panels, I'm sure you'd be fascinated. I agree with the sentiment society harps on all the time that people that go into trades are less than and how trade work is absolutely not respected. It's on the same level as being a janitor or a garbage collector in the eyes of randomized people I've polled and asked for their perspective. Girls for example find tradies uneconomically attractive and guys think of it as menial low pay work.

My guess is 3 wire that size would be typically used for three phase without a neutral (delta configuration, not wye), and that wire follows the red, black, blue pattern in Canada for 3 phases. I'm not an electrician either.
