This is the first video that I've viewed by this gentleman, and I must say my God what an incredible presentation! His work is top shelf to say the least but it's his presentation that even impressed me more. So many videos on KZfaq are fine but there are often lapses in the presenter's dialog in what's being done. There sure wasn't that problem here. Every step was explained clearly with nothing to question. This is the type of guy that you would want to have work done for you....a true Craftsman.

FYI - If anyone hasn't suggested yet, I have one for you. I found when I was pounding my Ground Rods in, that if you take an empty pop bottle, fill it up with water and trickle the water down the pole as you pound it in and it makes it go a bit easier. Although, mine were Corrugated Copper Rods. It still made a difference. Love Your Show!

Great descriptive video. I always love that you explain about checking your local codes. By us, you cannot have a extra piece of pipe for a future run unless you have a pull string in it from point A to B. Using the paste for preventative corrosion is always a must as well. Good habit to do for sure. I've replaced panels that did not have it and had issues with bad connection and not able to fix it. We have to torque the main lugs on the panels as well. I will say I always loved having stranded wire jobs to have the ability to make it easier running through pipe. Our first house I had 2" from the road to the house which made it super easy to pull the wires through easily. Just like when you pulled yours. Why struggle for the little bit of cost of the bigger pipe. Of course the code is important to what size wire used. The height is important as well and making sure the correct size wire to feed the sub panel and that your main panel can handle it. I always loved doing the panel work especially upgrading one for safety reasons. A clean panel, done right is great especially when the inspector sees it. Thank you again for such a great video step by step. 🔨🔨👍🏻👍🏻

I am less than the beginner phase in my electrical education. I did a lot of reading and read a lot of reviews before I bought my subpanel and I'm very proud of myself that I thought I bought the exact same one. So I went down and clicked on the link hoping it would say so. And it did. $78.63 Is what I paid for this exact same panel in August of 2019. Before all the crazy stuff happened it's still in the box. And I'm still regrouping from the changes we all went through with employment due to covid-19 and travel restrictions and so forth. I am beyond reassured to have your video as a resource. My lucky day

I then installed my Grd. to the grd bar and neutral to the neutral bar. Next my 12-2's were ran with hot to the circut breaker, Grd. to the Grd. bar and neutral/ common to the neutral / common bar.

Thanks for this! I have the exact same panel that I'm using for a subpanel. In the past the panels that I've worked with didn't have the two neutral bars automatically connected, so I could use one side for my neutral and one for ground. This panel has them bonded together. Seeing that, I ordered a separate ground bar from Amazon, but wasn't sure I was doing things correctly. Also wasn't sure what those yellow things were for. Feeling much better now!

@justinsayre4856 9 ай бұрын

Great video!!! You may address this elsewhere in another video - not sure; anyway, at about 40min mark, when pushing the outlet back into the box, you may want to consider wrapping the outlet sides/contact screws in electrical tape after completing the connection or continuity test. This adds another level of safety to help prevent shock if someone reaches into an outlet box that is live when they think there's no juice. Also, labeling the Romex around the breaker box and at the first outlet might be something to consider.

@wrstew1272 7 ай бұрын

Where I learned electrical, tape was forbidden except to mark a second hot leg. Wrapped receptacles are totally unnecessary, time consuming, and oh so interesting when you get to redo someone’s…….mistakes? When you do electrical work for a living, you learn quickly how to work the wires so it isn’t an issue when installing. Did many checks with Federal Inspectors and zero problems ever. We ran around 2000 volts through every circuit to test, if it was humid you could hear the sparks jumping between the blades in the outlets…..had to retest later in the day to verify. Tape for bundles, OK. Outlets- not acceptable 😢

@charleswilson4598 2 ай бұрын

I worked for a federal agency that required the screws that mounted the ground and neutral bars to the panel be bolts and nuts even if they came from the manufacturer as sheetmetal screws. We used to say according to NEC or better. :) They had several squirrley codes that usually caused confusion or frustration to commercial electricians.

Josh, I designed electrical systems for 35 years. Have seen many KZfaq videos that truly should be banned from being shown. Your video is very well done! Actually excellent! There are a couple tiny points that are meant as constructive. 1. You said you were not going to torque the conductors because the inspector does not check for it. Wrong answer. You must do what is required by the manufacturer! The values required are on the door label. 2. At the end, you got overexcited,I think. Juice did not start flowing when you turned on the sub breaker, not the sub panel main breaker, not the branch breaker. Voltage potential did happen. The “Juice started flowing” (as it were) (amps) when you pulled the trigger on the saw, not before. Again great video! You should be proud of your achievement! Respectfully, Kevin

Do you put all the ground wires running in the breaker box and connect all those type of wires on the one side that has the grounds bus bar and all the neutral wires connected on the side that has the neutral bus bar and my follow up question do you connect all the circuit breakers for swithes on one side of the panel main plate and all circuit breakers for plugs on the other side of the main plate. Can you do a explainer video to answer this question and demonstrate if you can. Thanks
