Full Outdoor Kitchen Wiring

Welcome back guys, I started a outdoor kitchen back in February! Rough-in took about a day and a half by myself and then I waited for the customer to get the counter tops in and all of his appliances ran before making my final connections into the panel. I was able to put all 3 days of it together to show you guys the job from start to finish! Thanks for watch subscribe to see next weeks video! ⚡️⚒️ #femaleelectrician #electrician #construction

    I enjoyed your video. I started an electrical contracting business over 35 years ago. My son started working with me since he was 5. His 9 year old daughter now works with us. I am a little apprehensive about showing her your videos. She'll start bugging me to buy her all the tools you use. Great video.

    Impressive. I have 400amp service at my house and it turned out my panels were recalled years ago. Found this out when I had an electrician come in to add a new circuit to the garage for the water heater being moved there. He learned his trade in the Navy on a destroyer. Talk about neat wiring. And I really appreciate it when that kind of work is done. Makes my job and any other tradesman's job easier down the road. We had to relabel both 200amp boxes so I gave him a walkie talkie headset and the two of us did the whole house pretty fast. He even added the circuit breaker number and box it was in on the outlet boxes. So I really love seeing the neat work you do.

It's hard to find good hands especially in my age group the millennials and the gen z generation forget about it and these are young men what makes it even more impressive is that your a female. I've been in this trade 10 years and so far I have acquired my journeyman license and I have met a few woman in this trade but non put in the work like you they are always pampered and always doing the easiest thing on the job site but you are f****** doing it and exceptions dont make the rule but damn, you are one of a kind congrats to you and much love from midland texas

    With 5 circuits consisting of 10 conductors appears that the #12 THWN wire is undersized if you are using 20 amp GFCI circuit breakers In my area with that many wires we have to use #10 copper type THWN wires. Years ago we always called that derating but forget what term the NEC now uses. Nice job. So much faster using a quality made in USA carbide hole saw rather then the hydraulic KO.

    Nice work. My only issue, is the multiple ground wires in the pipe. Should only need one of the largest sized circuit. Also since the are 5 circuits, that adds up to 10 current carrying conductors and should be derated. Number 10s should have been pulled instead. But if not getting inspected, I understand, I’ve done it before myself lol

    I didn’t go through the comments so just ignore me if this was already said… I’m pretty sure those outdoor outlet covers are upside down. You want the wire opening to be faced down so that water doesn’t get in. That’s the way we always do it anyway..

    The panel and install looks nice, however, you speak of code and calculations but it seems you both do not understand them. 250.122(c) states that you only need 1 equipment grounding conductor in the pipe installed from the panel based on the largest overcurrent device. That is a large waste of materials. Furthermore the conductors needed to be derated per 310.15(c)(1), 10 current carrying conductors would only have a 50% ampacity rating based on 310.16, or 15amps, making the breakers too large for the install. These should have been installed as a #10 THHN conductor to meet code. If we are going to speak of code, perhaps we need to understand and follow it. Sorry to be critical, but that is the nature of the game and trade. Keep up the good work, and keep learning!
