In this video we look at the skills required to dress and clip twin and earth cable (twin and CPC cable) straight and flat to a surface with a smooth 90 degree bend in it. It is important in the early stages of studying to become an electrician to master these transferable skills.

Good technique for the bend, clips , I was tort the clips should be every 8in on a wooden surface and every 6in on brick on concreat , and one 1/2 in each side of the bend and from top the back box .

Whats the recommended way to clip 2 cables running parallel, vertically? Nails on the outside, in the middle or both to the left/right?

What does all this manipulation do for the conductor thickness itself? We already know it's not a good idea to rip the outer sheath off electrical cables by using one of the conductors as a pull wire to split the sheath.

Nice clipping . I know this is only a demo video. But it would be nice to see the knockout on the box neatly cut out with a junior hacksaw and not just knocked out any how

I know it’s a demo, but that’s a lot of faffing. 1. Measure top and bottom and draw a line with your 3ft level. Use that to make sure you’re straight. 2. Use your hammer as a gauge to measure gaps. 3. Always put the nail on the side you’re hammering from.

If you cannot take your time and get it right at college we are all in trouble - thanks for watching and commenting 👍🏻.

@@GSHElectrical that’s the method I was taught at college. A real world technique that gets the job done quickly, accurately, and reliably. There’s no point in teaching techniques that won’t be applied in the real world. Anyway, it’s a minor disagreement on a otherwise excellent channel.

What I take from Gaz and the Boys is along with the technique is the ESSENCE. In that it is quality of workmanship with tips on how to achieve that. If you have an efficient way that gives the same results, then voila!
