Absolutely loved those 1.9 GTi's!

Fantastic video, agree with Barry. Hard work, and quickly done too. I dunno, whenever I watch other sparks I get the feeling they are so much quicker than I am!

Dammit! Just wired a shed like this for the first time, I REALLY wish I'd found this video beforehand! Thanks for all of the detail, learnt a lot.

8:15 you just reminded me of something that i had forgotten about from a month or more ago, thank you

Terrific video. I'm not a spark but I do appreciate a good tradesman at his work. Lovely job 👊

Top work fella 👌, like the look of the job. Looking forward to part 2

Decent install that nice to see someone thats got some pride in thier work and not mugg a customer off.

Lovely work super neat. Great days work there!

Another nice video Chris. I use U clip push in saddles for conduit. Only one screw required per saddle and they space the conduit the correct distance off the wall for box entry too! Looking forward to Part 2. 👍🏻

Love the 205 1.9 gti. Had one for about 10 years in early 90s, modified to 170bhp, lowered, 0 to 60 is 5.72 secs over 150 mph on a track. Superb car.

Great video, Chris. Love how you explain the process before you begin. Makes it much easier to follow what you're actually doing. Keep up the good work.

Nice one Chris, really enjoy your explanations, and keep up the ranting! 👍

Spot on pal . Easiest elec videos to watch on KZfaq 👍

Awesome seein how different work is in other countries than the US! Good work man

Another great video Chris. Really enjoy watching how everything is done and explained step by step. 1.9 gti omg, that brings back memories.

When I'm tightening up skts I make an audible click when I've finished, kind of like AvE with his wrench 👍

Thank you for the great content. Appreciated.

Nice job again like always

nice work chris , you look like your ready for a holliday mate. Thankyou for your interesting vidios.

Love the outside socket. Had a Screwfix outside socket last week where the actual socket connectors were flagged with the wrong polarity. Never had this before and was scratching my head for 20 mins for a line and earth reversal. Tool station here I come!

A nicely aligned conduit install looks a million times better than the flexible Copex being used by some

Nice job 👍

Beaut Chris 👌👍👍👍🏉🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Nice work

Why do I find myself watching these and even searching for others. Great vids 🙄

Good work Chris. In New Zealand we should always install the wiring in the wall and no conduit. The sparkly always called on before lining. Interesting how I see in the uk you guys gear called in after the walls are lined.

Top vid mate - you’re humour is great ..... who cares what others do we all have our own way and we all think ours is best 👍😂

All surface wood, what a doddle ! Doing similar fit out at mo, solid walls and chases and cavity where possible. Fire alarm, cctv ,alarm, etc. Outside sockets i use silicone on screws and beads top and sides. Water gets in eventually, just something i have always done.

Your video so great and the work so nice , as for the surface conduit , in our country the most of electricians use it in brick wall and in concrete ciling and i know that rong in bs standard but this think came on to us when the old britch engineers came to our country after 1970 and from that time we use the white pip in wall and ciling building becuse we don't have the flexible conduit in that time . So if you don't mind if i take your video and re use it for education and training purpose in my channel to show to some electricians that the withe pip not for interior installition ... and i lick you and gsh electrical and i waching both you from a long time .

Do you not squirt a little bit silicone on the pipe or cable entry on the inside of the outside socket? A very small beed of clear silicone along the top of the socket and down the sides will definitely make sure there is never any water can get in

that wonky bit of ply though 😬 neat job as always chris

👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼Neat job, I would take the TT earth into the consumer unit & connect it with the new earth rod, will help to reduce ELI.

Great video Chris. Thanks for sharing. 👍 Could you please advise who to contact in order to run electricity to a garage (part of a chain of garages)? I haven't seen anyone that has any wiring to any of them apart for some outside lights which goes underground. I hope that makes sense. 😋 Thanks.

Would love a video on how you connect the supply from the house to the mini board

Great job Chris, do you ever find the captive screws in metal clad front plates pop out and vanish forever? lol..I have many a time grrrr... :-)

Along, along, a la la la la long!! Sorry Chris! Haha tip video!! As always!

Hey Chris great video. Quick question, what laser are u using ? I dropped mine the other day so looking for a replacement?

Personally I’d of ran a high level trunking with vertical drops to the outlets. I think it would look tidier. Good job tho.

Do you ever use a sealant behind the box and between the wall..like around the cable/conduit entry or around the screws?

Great video ...would be great if you could film the testing of the circuits please shortly il be doing my 2391- 52 course.

Very “Scott Brown Carpentry” you been watching him

Hi ive built a leanto/shed to the gable of my bungalow and i want to run electricity directly into it to use bench drill and a mitre saw every now and then for basic past time. Any chance there is an easier way to do it.

Great job as usual. Don’t like the copex either. However, black pvc conduit probably would look better than the white.

Hi Chris. Can you tell me which torque screwdrivers for distibution boards do you use?

Hi Chris, love the video thanks, may I ask you I am having my brick garage rewired and would like to install 20mm osb for the sockets and conduit, will the electrician have any bother screwing into the osb? Thank you Chris.

You're funny mate... ermm... love your videos... ermm... please don't stop saying ermm... hahahahaha. Joking apart, your videos are very informative. Please keep sharing... ermm... thanks 🤣🤣🤣

No fluff straight into the work. How all KZfaq should be

If you do a 20mm hole and a 25mm hole each end the length of a female adapter with Male bush this works perfect on outside sockets as it creates a fixing aswell we always do this

I would be interested to know how you priced a job like this and roughly what its worth based on the kit you supplied as well. I always work to a day rate with my clients as I never know how long a job will take and have no idea if I am making more money or losing out.

Hey, why did you choose to do a ring rather than a radial? Would you have needed to do two radials or was it another factor?

Annotated videos increase your follow-up. Another successful job done. well done,

Quite possibly the best video I have seen from any other the KZfaqrs. Cheers Chris. Are you aware how naturally informative you are to a rookie spark like me?

4:19 I usually put my tools miles away from where I'm working as well. It's a bit of free exercise!

When installing exterior boxes, if you put a bead of silicon sealant along the top and sides (but not the bottom) of the back of the box before you secure it to the building,as long as the silicone runs outside of or across the screw holes, you should never have water infiltration through the screws as any water running down the wall will hit the silicone before it hits the screw/conduit holes and run across the top of the box to the sides...Leaving the bottom open lets any water that does find its way past the silicone a way out so it doesn't accumulate and flood the box...

Can u run cable from consumer unit to a double outlet socket then just continue from double socket to double socket ?? With the widening going no further that the last output socket

Nice work. Could of just T'd off same height for the first three sockets on the left. Less work and less conduit.

❤how do you get the power from the main boad armoured.😊

what laser marker do you use?

how big was that space? Width X length?

I got a question if u can help in a 20mm conduit how many runs of 2.5mm solid cabe can I fit will 4 runs fit ?

Chris how do you go about deciding the spacing on your saddles / how many you're going to use per length etc, I'm curious as I hear and see diff things whilst at work

I’d fit the earth flylead with metal clad sockets, the reason being the back box is exposed to touch hence I wouldn’t be relying on the mounting screws. I know some of the manufacturer instructions for metal clad say the back box must have an earth wire terminated to it.

3.53, i almost shook my fist at the screen, ring final !!!!! he save it though,

Looks mint 👍

Nice install, would it have been an option to run a 50 by 50 or 50 by 100 trunking around like a dado and tee out with conduits or adjacent to the trunking? No single core cables or just using what you're used to?

Why don't they use single core cables in conduit rather than flat twin and earth, you are essentially triple insulating when putting it in conduit which is safe but unnecessary, with singles you can usually pull though easier in conduit. Great videos, keep them up mate.

Lot better than kopex, but why the inspection bends, wouldn't a slip bend been better.

Thanks

You're getting quite good at all this playing with wires thingy...

Nice job. Pity they didnt get you to 1st fix it before the plywood went on, save you having to use the conduit

Nice to see the conduit instead of the usual copex. I think yours looks a little more professional than your compadres!!!!

Nice vlog..... what made you choose TT over exporting house earth?

Why not 2 radials socket circuits or just 1 for it been a small installation! Ring mains are no longer used here in Ireland but still can be used according to Irish regs but will be soon phased out... And we no longer use T&E with unsleeved cpc conductors... Also the plastic consumer units used here are also to be phased out for the metal ones... Great video Chris looking forward to Part 2 already...

why would you drop all the conduit down ti just run them back up, using more conduit and cable than necessary . is there a reason or just customer preference

Wy in UK you put the consumer unit so hilevel

Great vid - really enjoyed - just wondered why you didn't use a 4mm radial circuit instead of a ring for a simple shed/workshop - less work - less testing?

What work boots do you wear CHRIS?

You missed the bead of mastic in an arc above the entry at the back to 1: stop water running into the back of the socket in heavy rain 2: to stop water soaking into and damaging the wood work!

I'll have a tripod for the camera but f@$k the laser, I'll just use what evers on site to jack that up to the height needed 😂 fair play. Made me laugh. Tidy job. Have you ever seen the schneider clic uk20 and uk25 conduit clips ? We use those have a look they are the dogs doolies compared to those saddles. Good video this one. 👍🏼

Nice work Chris. Just for clarification you earth the armoured in the house gland it as normal int shed, but introduce an independent earth from a new earth spike. I’ve not done it like that before.

part 2!

I doubt the firemen responding to a fire in that shed are going to need to isolate the power as the fire will likely do it for them by melting the insulation on the main feed wires causing a dead-short which will trip the breaker for them...

Did you said the House was already a TT system ? Just curious as to why you glanded the SWA into a plastic box when you could have exported the house earth and added an additional earth stake in parallel.

Very good workmanship

Any actual reason to why he has to not import the earth from the house into the outbuilding ? Anyone care to explain ?

I never like that install done like that I always think it looks better 2x2 plastic trunking right round the top on top of your consumer unit then plastic conduit drops to switches and sockets it always looks better window side conduit down the corner then along under the window

Conduit is a better finish looks better supported than the copex. What was the need for junction box under the consumer unit🤔

I don’t get why he couldn’t have just turned the box upside down on 9:40 for the position of knock outs to be central? I though could used these boxes either way? Can anyone elaborate for me please?

How do you join the 25mm PVC conduit with 20mm hole in the metal box? Do you make the hole bigger to accommodate the 25 adaptor or you use some kind of reducer?

Why is the conduit so low down

What are these ring ccts you speak of? None of that in 🇭🇲

never understand why people not electricians put single sockets outside when a double is just as easy and you know at some stage they going to wish it was a double well done chris onwards and upwards

why no adaptors on conduit to at least try for water tight. and I would have drilled holes through shed at slight angle to let water run off

Nice job. Why ply first then wire. Could have lost all them cables and not used plastic conduit. Understand if it was an old workshop

Neat job Chris.. was 2" pvc trunking an option tho?

Any point doubling the earths over if they’re both going in the same terminal anyway? Nice vid tho pal, learnt a lot

Has that plastic conduit been pvc solvent to the adaptors, with there being expansion and contraction ?

Is Twin & Earth in conduit was found at?

Nice correction. Ring final.

Ok to use Nyyj cable instead of the swa cable?
