retired master here, you did well on explaining it , so novice will understand it. like all your work it was well done,

Looking at the sawmill in the background makes me homesick. I had a lot of spruce on the backside of my property and when clearing ground stacked it and other types of trees so to be used in the future. I saved thousands of dollars on forms as I used trees from the property and made my own forms as the bakelite forms are expensive. I made all my foundation forms and some sheds that had poured walls;; I had everything out of pocket and to start out with house and property paid for was a large step into the future of my business as a mechanic. I put in my own shop and it was big enough to have three lifts and room to park a few disabled rigs needing repair and my service truck. Took me a long time to unpack my "suitcase" or service truck as I worked out of it long enough to buy my place. Three years after I was permanent and truck was gone, a forest fire put me homeless again... a sick feeling

I'm sure your dad is proud you bring so many skills to the job. Thanks for sharing.

Great video Jessie, you have lots of useful knowledge and skills! Those drone shots are just incredible too! Thanks, DC

Loving the electrical work, hope to see more!! I like how you go through each step. It’s very interesting and I learned a lot

Great job, coming from a 40 years of being an (CT) electrician. Nice to see the "Younger" guys gettin into the trade. Keep up the good work brother!

Thanks Jesse, I really enjoyed your video with all the steps involved with setting-up your dad's electrical power system, I can't wait for more!

Thanks for a well done video and through explanation, enjoy watching you and Andrew

Thank you Jesse, I enjoy all your videos - keep them coming.

I always enjoy seeing electrical work. Especially when it's explained to a non-electrician.

Thanks for the great video mate ,always enjoy watching this kind of work in a different country and climate ,been a plumber for thirty odd years retired now through injury so watch a lot of KZfaq ,found your channel from Andrew's glad I did .Cheers from down under.

Your Dad sure picked a beautiful piece of land! WOW.....just spectacular! Any time I can see a master craftsman at work is a good thing. 👍👊👏😍

Beautiful job Jesse, nice and neat. Your explanations are easy to understand to us "non-electricians" and I appreciate that. Great job buddy.

Jessie, I feel educated. Learned a lot from the video. You're a good and patient instructor.

I enjoyed watching you carry out electrical work on this video , most entertaining .

Great video! Love the electric work!

Good Day, I came across your channel and absolutely love your videos. Great job explaining everything.

Definitely more electrical stuff! - I do love the "I can do anything" kind of videos too.

Best video I have found on doing one of these combo boxes which is what I am using on my new icf house. Thank you for doing it.

I enjoy watching younger guys doing work... lol I retired 4 months ago... Give it hell man...

Very well done, Jesse. That was very informative and your explanations were right on the money. Plus those drone shots were spectacular. Look forward to more electric work videos.

The drone video from directly above the three machines moving that rock was really great stuff, Jesse.

Great teaching video! Definitely do more like this. Thanks Jesse!

Great video. Love watching the electrical work so including it in future videos would be awesome.

Just an awesome video. I love/look forward towards any video of yours, so completely understood while tongue in cheek entertaining. As a retired journeyman electrician from Walt disney world(2000-2017), and prior to that, 29 yrs as an all around maintenance(commercial & residential) mechanic(Paccar),truck-semi driver(interstate/intrastate)-tour bus driver(entertainment-electrical engineering[live & recording sound]), etc., had to keep busy when "off tour" in Seattle, until the mouse made me an offer I couldn't refuse LOL.....imagine my delight when email announces "Jesse Muller has posted a new video." oh boy howdy, I'm all in!

love your channel thanks for putting up some new videos.

Great video and you did a nice job on showing how it was all done. I am no electrician but like you said some places don’t require any paperwork. As a welder I have had to hook up 440 welding banks and also done some wiring on my house. But I have never put in new service. To a house, the 360 rule on the conduit is something I didn’t know about. Again very nice 👍 job.

Nice Job Jesse! That was very interesting to see how the electical Power is Wired in the US. I´m Electitian too, but in Germany. Here we put in every House/ Appartment 3 Live Wires and PE/N. Usually we have 230V between L and PE/N and 400V between L1 and L2 for Example. AC at 50Hz In my House, the Mainfuses are 3x 63Amp (for the 3 Live Wires), also a 3x 60Amp Meter. Then it goes to a Subpanel in my Appartment and another Subpanel to my Garage. The normal electric Plug for Vacs, Fridge or TV is fused with 16 Amp, 230 V AC. Then there are Power Plugs for Machines like Concrete Mixer, Wood Splitter, Lathe or Cranes. These Powerplugs have Conection to all 3 Live Wire. The smallest has 3x 16Amp (11kW), then the next bigger has 3x 32 Amp (22kW) , 3x 63 Amp (43kW) and 3x 125Amp (86kW).

Thanks for the video. Tons of useful and practical information.

Awesome video, explained everything you were doing

great job. good details as you built it.

Any videos you make are interesting. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Yes, more to electrical vids. Nice and informative. Thx!

A class act Jesse...Great content ,music and overhead views..Thanks

Wow! The things at which this guy excels is totally mind boggling!

cool vid, its so helpful to see actual professionals doing actual jobs. I learned a lot. I'd enjoy more electrician related content! :)

Another great video. I always learn things watching your videos.

It is nice when the primary is a higher voltage, I am at the end of a run just about and it is stepped down we used to have so many issues when we ran the big pump motors. Now it is just residential on the run and it stays nice usually 122-124 VAC. When the neighbor turns on their pump you can still tell sometimes the drop and brown out is sad. I did electrical for equipment rooms and res panels and I just followed what that inspector wanted. I kept a card with notes for each inspector in the area because they did not agree on things. Just easier to give them what they wanted. Nice video.

Well done and thanks for the excellent videos !!!

Hi Jess...the things I like about your videos are not just entertaining but also educational.you are a natural born teacher and innovative as well. Good luck with your projects and thanks for your good quality videos.

Jesse as always awesome detail and explanation. Thanks for sharing and bringing us along. Keep them coming and I would be interested in additional electrical vids when time permits you.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge, God bless you and your family.

As a new electrical Engineer with little field experience this is very helpful to visually see how it gets install.

Omg. That wasnt a rock, it was a mountain. I love your channel. I just found you about a week ago and I'm hooked. Great content

MAN Jesse you ARE a jack of all trades.Just found your videos ,IM A FAN,great explanation and advice.

Jesse You have so much knowledge and I am happy for you. because it pays off in the long run. So many people out there growing up and have no idea what they want to do! I was the same back many years ago. Growing up my Grandfather was my idol and my teacher. It gave me a great life. retired now and enjoying thinking back many years.

Thank you so much for this video. Very helpful.

Man I'm glad I found your channel. Awesome videos. Detailed and informative and fun to watch. Some of the best I've seen. It's cool to see all you can do with your mini excavator. A friend is trying to talk me into buying a bigger excavator. It's obvious from watching you I can do all I need to do with one like you have. You do great work and I'm learning from you. Thanks.

Another great video! I grew up spending my summers with family in Woodstock and your videos make me miss the Catskills. Thanks!

Awesome job Jesse , well looks like you going to be Busy in the future.

Jesse is the Jack of all trades. Thanks for sharing.

You and your mate Andrew make a fine pair to watch keep the vids coming 👍🇬🇧

Was a great video!!!! lots of information that is going to be helpfull as I am building my own

Hello fellow Green county guy. Building a house in Catskill and this video helped me a lot!

Thank you Jesse I really enjoyed this video with all explanations given))))

Very informative video. Would like to see more of them.

Great video. Thanks for sharing and I'd like to see more. I'll be doing this on a lot, we are buying in Greene County.

These videos are awesome man. I really like these long format videos that show the whole process. Alot of things on KZfaq involving construction work are condensed and dont so the process justice. There is only a few guys on KZfaq I can think of who do anything like this. I really hope this inspires other contractors.

awesome video! appreciate the information!!!

Hey Jesse. Just want to say thanks for the info and for your philosophy on life. Really appreciate your approach to contracting, projects and life in general. Imma get an electricians cert and license. It just makes sense. Thanks brother!

Jesse - another great video... thank you...

Jesse and Andrew are both good at building and fixing things, no wonder they're good buddies!

Your dads a lucky man, you’re a good son.!!👍

I enjoyed watching the video !! would like see more like this !! but I enjoy all your videos !! very well done !! just keep them coming !!!! thanks for sharing !!

Loved the video and would like to see more electrical topics.

Also liked the way you ended video, drone shot of the hot lines to pole... cool...

Love the electrical videos.

thnx maing. gaveme the guts to install a meter myself

Good stuff! Love your comments/tips!

You guys do everything so differently than here in Europe, but it's interesting to see how you do it in this detail. Keep up the good work and good videos, you'll soon have plenty of subs ;)

Great job very informative

Very informative ! thanks for sharing this

Hi Jesse, thank you for the new video, it was really educational as well as entertaining. I was astonished to see that you used aluminium cables from the transformer pad to the meter/breaker panel. Before I have never seen aluminium cables used for house electrification. Here in Germany copper cables are used 99% of the time. The 360° scene around 33:30 had me laughing since I was reminded of Guido from the Cars movies.

WELCOME BACK JESSE. GOOD LUCK. IN YOUR PROJECT.

great video Jesse keep them coming

Jesse my friend, If you Have never moved big boulders like that before is pretty hard to imagine how heavy they are, but the way we do It is we go get an old car hood, the older the car the better, and will slide the boulder up on the car hood and use that as rock Skid. They are a whole lot easier to move around that way. If you can't find a car hood you can actually use about anything you just want it to turn up on the leading edge.

Nice video Jesse, thanks!

Excellent. Local PSGE on long island ny told me I could direct bury 13.8kv 4 ft down on commercial 3 phase. I put in conduit anyway. I set transformer vault and pad with Lull fork lift. Sand here soft but still dangerous. I gave same machines Yanmar and New Holland lol 🤣

I'd enjoy more electrical videos. I found this very interesting.

Good video, Jesse! I wish I'd had this when I built my work shop a few years ago (pre-Larry and KZfaq. LOL). Very thorough, well illustrated and "novice-friendly". Your videos are always excellent! Oh, BTW, I passed the code inspection the 2d time, with the help of a friend who had just finished his journeyman quals.

Your vids are too good for words.

I think you are wize to not restricting yourself to one thing in your working life. In truth I think I can safely so I've had two dozen types of jobs or interest. In many parts of Australia. I'm retired now and wouldn't change a thing, I'm having a great life. Very much enjoyed this video and learned a lot.

Another brilliant video. When I first saw that rock I thought this is either a job for Andrew or Dynamite, Dynamite being the safer option 🤣

Fascinating; thank you.

Nice video sir. I’m planning power at the Vic’s Yard. Schenectady. 🤟🏼

And yet here most of the time, my mid twenty year old able bodied children of mine won't even bring my trash cans in from the road for me !!! But here you are helping out your Dad with this fairly BIG job for him ... Nice work Jesse...

So much good information. Thumbs up.

Outstanding video. Mayor! USMC, 86-90.

Looks like the blue ridge mnts in the background. Thanks for sharing, had no idea about that max 360 degrees rule!

Glad you talked about conductor size, distance and voltage drop. You finished up with a nice clean job. I hate coming on to a new project and having to deal with someone else's garbage/trash.....I'm sure you grumbled a bit...I know I would have.

Good job! I would like to see more electrical. I did my own hose including the underground service 21 years ago. There's been a lot of changes since. The electric field is always changing.

Outstanding video, thanks for sharing your thoughts and opinion. Great work,👍👍👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 music cool also.

I'm surprised you didn't get A C with his excavator or dozer to help you move that boulder! Excellent job and I would like seeing more videos like this. Thanks.

Geez, Jesse, when I saw the run time and topic I wasn't sure I could stay with it. I have to agree with one of your other commenters, you do a terrific job of explaining...even for someone like me who will never need this information...well, you never know!

Transformers can step up voltage or step down voltage. Yours is stepping down the line voltage. It's all in the windings!

here in Lexington, ky. i would have to put a ground bridge there at the meter, just seen the ground bridge, good work

great vid jesse and thanks so much for hooking me up your mother and I are very proud of you lol and I tell the world

Jesse, when I worked in a power plant (15 years) we stepped up our voltage to....138000 volts. 13.8 KV off the generators to a step up transformer (10X) to 138KV Keep up the good work.

In Florida where I am you can't get Temp. power, you have to use a generator to build the house, you get your power hook up after you get your CO. a real pain. Nice job Jesse, and that big Rock you had to move, you should have call Andrew to blow it up, lol

YEARS AGO I DID ELECTRICAL WORK, I'VE SEEN A LOT OF DIFFERENCES FROM KZfaq, THE COAXIAL POWER WIRE WAS PRETTY INTERESTING, THE EXPANSION TUBES KILLER IDEA
