Bro I have to say that I am a student at intercoast college and I've been in the electrical trade program for over 7 months and I have watched so many of your videos and you have helped me so much. Please keep the used videos coming and I want to give my most respect and love Dustin. I really appreciate everything you do and share with the community.

No problem my friend, thanks for watching!

The charge on a plate in a capacitor is not caused electrons repelling each other, it's caused by electrons building up on the negative plate and being attracted to the positive plate but not being able to jump the insulating gap between the two. Inductive reactance is caused by the expanding and collapsing magnetic field, which is caused by the fluctuating intensity and direction of current flow. When the lines of flux pass through the neighboring loops of wire in the coil, a voltage is induced that opposes the source voltage. Same concept as a shake flashlight. And also pretty much every part of our electrical infrastructure-

Adam ........precisely !!!

Thank you very much for taking the time to make this series. I have been looking for an educative series like this for ages. Big props to you.

I haven't professionally worked in the trade since 2014. I graduated the apprenticeship in 2005. I wish you were one of my teachers, I guarantee I would have KNOWN not just memorized for the test. As I've decided to go back to the trade, I've been super nervous that I don't remember enough of the technical side. Your videos have provided the much needed refresher courses. And honestly, in a couple cases, you've explained a few things that I knew "how", but didn't know "why". Thank you so much creating a safe space for me to refresh 💜

Hey man, I'm starting my electrician apprenticeship in two weeks and want to understand as much as possible before then. I've watched multiple videos of other people explaining it, but I'd have to say I was way more focused because of your chill attitude and snapbacks!

How's it going?

New sub here and just took my basic electrical test. Passed 80% , now I'm starting the three phase test. I'm gonna be eating sleeping your channel. I will be donating some funds from my first check. Anyway thank you bro..

Great channel man. I live in Tennessee and have been an electrician for 15 years and it's great to see the interest in our field. Keep up the good work buddy

You are doing a great job..... I think you are going to end up like your Master friend that left the field to be a teacher. I can tell you have a heart for teaching. A couple of things you missed or skipped over (1) one important factor that people don't really understand is the effect of distance (multiples of 100 ft) require stepping up your wire size every 100 ft. You did mention using the "Correct wire size" but you can get in trouble thinking that a #12 wire is good for 20 amps and forgetting to calculate the distance to the load.....etc (2) When you drew your load panel you didn't show your Ground being attached to a ground rod, building ground or plumbing ground (copper or steel pipe) If I have a subpanel more than 100 ft from the Main Entry load center I create another grounding point.

This is the best online electrical education on KZread. I seriously need to buy some gear to support the Channel Once I have some money.

Best explanation of how/why equipment grounds work I’ve found! Thanks! I’m trying to be an arm chair electrician and you’re helping keep me knowledgeable and safe!

Best electrical video series on youtube! I've tried to understand these concepts for awhile now, but nobody ever explained it well like you do. Nice work and thank you.

Multi decade trade guy here. Started in residential of course. It was such a “ drone” type atmosphere at the time. I hope that there are more like you out there who can bring some knowledge to those starting out.....and anyone else for that matter. Thanks man.

So informative Dustin, Themba here from South Africa I love your channel.

Thank You! This video was truly electrifying! Your a great teacher!

Thanks dude. Really appreciate you vids, your time, and your explanations.

Keep it up. Been DC power for data centers, telecoms, and hospitals for a few years and made the switch to AC power. Your videos have allowed me to brush up on my theory allowing me to talk to customers in ways they can understand what’s going on and what’s coming out of my mouth. Cheers

Electrician U I enjoy the videos and content this channel and your other channel have. It makes me a better technician and for that I thank you.

Great video, glad I found this channel, thanks!

I'm watching all your videos and I will watch them all over again.

i love ur teaching strategy....glad am learning

Great simple explanations, I have been going to school for a year, no body explain ground like this to me. Completely got it.huge thanks.👍

I was watching this one from 5 years ago and earlier today I watched one from last month.... Sure have come a long way boss 💯💯💯 keep up the great content (classes) Dustin 👍👍👍

I love what you doing in your videos. I graduated from going to school studying to be an Electrician. Listening to you explain everything makes everything so much clearer.

dude I love your channel soo much, it super informative and you explain things and break it down to its simplest form. I'm a 7 year electrician (mainly residential), and I reference your videos for various things. I went to a pretty crappy trade school in my area for 3 years and honestly feel you've taught me more in a matter of weeks as opposed to years in a curriculum that seems rushed and the teachers are just there to collect a paycheck. keep up the great content pal, your changing lives out here

just want to say Thank you. out of all my videos I've been watching to prepare for electrician exam..i like urs the best with the way you teach. very helpful and looking forward to continuing .

I am not an electrician, I work mainly with dc (board) repairs, but really enjoy the videos.

This channel ROCKS!!!!!! Thank you for all the cool info.

Dude You have in light my brain so much you have no idea how much I appreciate everything you're teaching me and many others. Keep up the good work stay safe & happy new year...

I just wanted to say thank you Dustin! Your videos are awesome!

You're a great teacher Dustin!!!

Its so incredible to learn from a master.

Very fascinating, great video and explanations.

Great explanation!

Keep it up ! I like to learn this stuff and I'm not a pro just want to be more informed.

Apprentice here... appreciate everything you post man keep it up

thanks for putting all this terminology in simple terms. keep those videos coming please!!!!

Excellent explaining! Like on light bulb hot brings the power and meets the neutral build resistance and turn on light. Thank you for this video I appreciate your time and knowledge.

Thank you, I have helped my 2 older brothers one an electrician and one a handyman and honestly I have learned and understood more from these videos you make than from them, thank you.

Thank you for taking the time to teach and share your passion and knowledge with us. I watch and take notes on as many KZread videos of your I can.

Great work - thanks!

Wooo! One more Friday and my first week of apprenticeship is done! Tryna absorb everything!

Excellent series on the electrical trade! I really enjoy and find your videos very precise and informative. And I’ve been doing this crap for over 40 years now... Great explanation of resistance verses impedance. Yes, do a video on capacitance, inductance, reactance. Explain what each component is and how it factors into a circuit, should be very interesting.... Use these terms and equations in the RF world as well, now that’s when it gets really interesting!

Thank you, you do an amazing job explaining things. I learn tons from your videos.

I love your videos. I think your fantastic...especially for newer people in the trade. Your videos are easy to understand and learn from, even for veterans of this trade. Keep up the great work you do for all of us.

Nice, simple, explanation. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Thank you. You made that super easy to understand. I read it in a book first and got lost lol.

Big fan. I just started my preapprenticeship, I have been watching alot of your videos and they have been very educational. Thanks for the help

Wow bud!!!! Your amazing! God bless you!! You have been put her for us that cant learn as easily… you explain things so simple… Thank you so much for the help! Thank you jesus!

Excellent video, featuring the wind as guest host!

Beautiful explanation

What a great skill to teach you have! Keep it up

A great review and a great instructor.

thanks for taking the time man much appreciated

Great video Tnx for taking the time to share!

thx man! great stuff along my apprenticeship

Bro, Your right on. Thank you. Don’t stop, your kicking as!

This was great, thank you sir!

Great explanation

You are so helpful.... From Fort Myers, FL..

I appreciate your videos so much you are a great teacher man. Getting into this trade is the best decision I've made in my life and you have a simplistic way of explaining things that makes it click in my heas

DUSTIN your the best bro ,I'm learning so much from you I'm very grateful

Brilliant, thanks 👍

Thank You. From Fort Myers, FL.

Great video thanks 👍👍

Outstanding video

I have learned more from you, than any "professor" at my trade school. Thanks man!

Thank you for the videos brother. Trying get back in the field and your videos helping me get the comb webs off this apprentice. 💪💪

Hey Dustin. 1st time viewer here. Thank you very much for your clear explanation of impedance and resistance. I have a suggestion. You may already have this, but I am interested in knowing the proper way to approach an electrical panel, remove the panel, and what i'm looking for as far as what was done right and what was done wrong. Please refer me to the corresponding video of yours if you already have made such a video. Thank you for your time and God bless brother.

Bro u n the other dude Eric teaching me great tips love ur content especially journey to master series I’m an avid watcher I love the grind of being a electrician nice to share the passion with u n also helping me becoming an electrician

Thanks men I love watching your videos you doing a wonderful job I have learning a lot.

You’re an awesome down to earth dude love learning from you

Love this channel..... just got a mint copy of 1st edition Electricity One -Seven in mail.... excellent book! 👍😁👊

great video please keep them coming thanks !!!!!!

Another awesome video.

Excellent video

You're a very good teacher! I need you to cover more of the math and calculations. I'm struggling with that the most.

You are a funny educated dude to listen! Thank you for your hard work!

Your an awesome person. I appreciate you.

Impedance also accounts Capacitive and inductive reactance along with resistance. Cool video

You are a great teacher thank you man

What is phase. And does it go 90 degrees? Thanks best channel out there.

Another great video. Better than in the class lecture.

Hey Dustin can you make a video demonstrating voltage, amps, and resistance in Residential and how I can use those to help me solve electrical problems?

@jrdn.lauren

3 жыл бұрын

That's way too vague of a question to be taken seriously. You expect a certain voltage ± a few Volts. but if you have resistance in the circuit you'll get a lot less. Usually caused by a loose wire somewhere in a wall. This is very very bad because high resistance = hot which might mean 🔥. End of lesson

You're so dam practical. You're a master at your craft.

Great videos

Thank you 🙏

Hello, great theorey, would this be the same as inductive reactance, dues to the back-voltage? I wanted to run a number of appliances from a 7.5 kw gen so I put upper and lower heaters in wtr htr in series and that brought down the current to 15 amps and the htr now consumed 3600 watts, the qwater was somewhat warmer and I had more power for other loads.

Right on Dustin!

2 things I've long found odd: 1. We usually use impedance rather than conductance, which is a much more sensible concept. 2. Many instructors use equations as explanations. Equations are descriptive and predictive; they are not explanatory. (E.g., ask most instructors what a resistor is actually doing to voltage and current. Most refer to Ohm's Law rather than explaining what's actually going on conceptually and causally.)

Awesome videos very nice

Damn this answers so many technical questions. Thank you!

That was awesome sir. It added value to me

🙏thank you!!!!!!...safety circuits for building automation panels if you haven't already

Hey! Thanks for doing this. Very useful and helpful. The question I got is - when R goes up then I goes down. That’s clear. But as you say here when I goes does then R goes up… is that accurate? It may be just a matter of putting words together… but to me it seems like even when I goes down the R stays same. Thanks again! Just clarifying!

Hey Dustin, could you upload a conduit bending video? It's been a few months and I just want to know as much as possible so that I can keep getting better. Any kind of clever tips you could give me would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance! I mostly want to know a little more in depth about bending kicks and/or bending saddles.

Man, awesome. I'm getting out of the Navy Active Duty, but thinking I want to become an Electrician.

Hey man thank you for your teaching. How do I find voltage? Say a machine gives watts & amps but no voltage. Thank you

I've watched and learned a lot from your videos.....Thank you for putting the content out there....I have a question, though. I am a retired firefighter, who use to work on fire trucks from the 70's,...before they did things like putting computers in them. Good old diesel engines, no computer controls, etc.... We had a gentleman who loved the fire department, and he was an electrician. He would come over and offer his services to us for free. He was an industrial electrician. One of out ladder trucks had a stand alone, gas powered generator, that he discovered was grounded POSITIVE, not negative. He does not know how we ever didn't get zapped, standing in water with our corded flood lights. If the Vehicle was negative ground, and the generator was grounded Positive, how did they operate at the same time. My mind cannot get wrapped around this...Does this make any sense to you?
