I'm retired now after 35 years in the trade, but something that I learned early on is depending where or who you're working for, you're going to hear all of these items referred to by different names. Great video for the individual just getting into the commercial side of the trade and a portion of them being used in industrial. Remember, it's not a competition to see who's better, we're all in the same trade so instead of tearing each other down, build each other up.

Hi Dustin. This is Bill from Sparky Channel. I want to sincerely thank you for mentioning the new Sparky Channel on one of your videos/instagram. For those who don't know, the original Sparky Channel got hacked and the hacker deleted my 934 videos and I lost my 182K subscribers. I have started a new Sparky Channel which now has 62 videos and 2600 subscribers. Some of the new Sparky Channel subscribers came from your channel after your announcement so I want to really thank you for that! Best wishes!

They said I will be doing pre-fab for 6 months to a year then I will be out in the field doing 3 phase work. The cool thing is they are paying for my apprenticeship school after I'm there 60 days. I bought a bunch of tools yesterday from harbor freight because that's all I can afford. I subbed to your channel. Good information! Thanks. I'm going to just take it day by day and not get too ahead of myself. I will learn as I go.

Nice to catch up on stuff I have not touched in 6 months! Greatly appreciated, thanks! In NYC its either you attempt to try to get into a union which takes years or you try your luck working for private companies that sometimes do not even hold an electrical license under their name.... Lets just say credible info is scattered -- thats if you even get coworkers that speak english.

The gangable boxes are a pain, but they are a hell of a lot more durable than the blue plastic boxes that flip around in the wall. That romex is “acceptable” in houses, barely. I don’t think the rodents in our area have learned that 120VAC is a bad thing to eat, fair number of plastic chews.

Important note about contactors: the ones used in HVAC equipment are "definite purpose" contactors. You CANNOT use them for a different purpose, such as controlling lighting in a store. Contactors for lighting are MUCH more expensive, and are listed and approved for the purpose. Definite purpose contactors have a definite purpose that is NOT lighting a store. Make sure that any contactor you install is listed for the purpose. I'm just sayin'.....

@@richt5986 Actually, no, it is against the national electrical code to use anything except an approved contactor for lighting. You cannot use an HVAC “definite purpose contactor,” which is why I mentioned that. The difference in cost between a definite purpose contactor and one that is listed for use as a lighting contactor is about 10 times.

I looked it up. They're called 1900 boxes because that was the original part number from the manufacturer Bossert.

Usually called a 4 square box or 4 11/16 box but then depending where you are people call it differently

Good video! Anyone know If M/C CABLE can be used in cellulose insulation? Not sure if it can harm the casing. Having trouble finding info on this!

For commercial work always purchased panels & junction boxes without KO'S so I could make KO'S to line up with handy unistrut saving an offset . Also used steel EMT fittings instead of POS garbage die cast fittings.Have to be careful with handy gangable wall cases. Boxes from different manufacturers often will not gang together. Love the 12 by 12" JB with built in MC connectors & ground bar. If you are going to connect a critical motor or motor that will turn on & off more then say 30 times a hour best to go with a made in USA NEMA full size real deal starter ( Square D & Allen Bradley ) starter rather then inferior IEC contactors which most will not allow you to replace contacts.Flex = greenfield.

On a commercial jobsite you will have a set of documents including, drawings, specifications, and submittals. In these cases it is important to understand deviation in materials may not be acceptable.

Here in the East we all call MC cable, BX cable. When it was being developed, there several versions being tested. A experimental, B experimental, C......., their names were shortend to AX, BX, CX..... The Bx won out and the name stuck. So, around here that's what we all call it. We call armor jacket (bx with no wire) , Greenfield. But that's another story

In Canada the first two are called 4x4’s and 4x4 duplex covers lol but I’m guessing the name 1900 comes from Iberville’s product number

In my area flexible metal conduit is called greenfield. I assume that was originally a brand name.

That's what I learned it as, too. And the weatherproof or Raintite, as Dutin referred to it as was called Sealtite.

Not to be a fly in the ointment, but there's PVC coated rigid conduit, called Rob Roy in the field. Also, threadless connectors can be gotten for type RMC conduit, so you're not threading it.
