Can i wire a 15amp one end and 10 amp the other? I have a 15amp coffeee machine but nob15amp sockets in my house.

I changed mine but before screwing it back in wall i tested it and it would trip the safety house power switch ...but when i screwed it back in wall then tested it the power switch dont trip ..why is this ?

Dislike for the title u bogan!

Legend, Thank you 😊

I’m not an electrician and this vid was helpful in giving me an idea about how my switches have been wired (looping at the light). I’m hoping to make these switches “smart” by using Shelly 1 Plus (or similar Shelly wifi relay). Can you tell me if this would be possible with the looping at the light wiring set up??

When mounting these plug bases inside the ceiling, what is the Australian standard requirements? eg. screw directly to wood or steel trusses or battens. Under or above insulation? Clearance from other stuff like water pipes etc?

Hi, may I ask, how can I connect a type C head cable directly to main power socket without using adapter? I mean keep the type C header, remove the USB header and connect directly to main power source.

What if we are placing one old light with 4 downlights? How do we do the wiring? Thanks!

Awesome video mate hands down. you made life so much easer 😊. I should of stuck at school and did an electrical apprenticeship. Love your work mate !!!

I’m an apprentice and this diagram/ explanation really helped cheers

thank you

Great video with very clear information. My house has many dimmer switches installed in a new build. I have noticed that in some cases the dimmers are installed upstream of the switch, i.e. on the active side. The Clipsal installation docs clearly show the dimmer downstream of the switch, i.e on the light side, as you have done. Clearly the dimmer will still work in this non-standard configuration, but is there any downside to having the dimmer always active? Electronic fatigue and premature failure, for instance?

the ping is a little high

Every useful thanks

I shut everything off 😂

​@allelectricalau was I reading your multimeter at .710 when you checked for dead on the earth?

You should set your Meter first before switching the power point

kollam

Thanks!

Great video , hate it when isps cap the upload 🏃🏃🏃 , but great upgrade

Mate as a retired Sparky, Yeronga TAFE 1980 to 1982, that is very informative for a lay person especially checking polarity at the end. I am about to swap out some doubles to four gang ( they were not available when I was a boy but wood blocks were still being used) so just wanted to check that it is a neat swap and ended up watching the whole video. Thanks muck.

Great video ! Quick question, have bought Clipsal Classic Series Double GPO's, and have noticed that some of my current GPOs has 15A mechs in them. the new clipsals come with 10A mechs. will a replacement from 15A to 10A be OK ?

Can you do 8 different lights with 2x2 way switches so 4 turn on off each switch 4 switches total?

For connectors. What do you think about wago 221 connector. Waiting for the day they become standard rather than the old connectors. Easier to disconnect and reconnect.

Brilliant

My down lights are the plug in type so i just get a new one and swap them. My old house was hard wired like these. When they died i just left them until enough of them burnt out it warranted paying an electrician to come out and replace the dead ones but doing that meant that the next time they go.... They all go..

Thanks for your video. I'm gonna give it a go tomorrow. My bathroom has one light but two switches for different modes

can you use 2.5mm for a light if you don't have 1.5?

After uodating my wall switches i noticed My house has both configurations in it, weird. Have you ever seen this before ?

Good video man, where would a dimmer sit in this configuration?

Thanks heaps mate, great work

Hey mate wondering if you could tell me how I would go about adding a completely seperate power point, is it just a matter of piggy backing off the existing one in the room or have I got to run new wires down from the roof?

Great!!! ❤❤❤ thank you

Where i live it’s mainly non experienced installers who have completed some course, one told me they get $300 per install, need 3 per day to make it pay…

May I ask where is the new cable connected with the existing system?

Hey mate, is the double screw terminal on the earth circuit an as3000 requirment or personal preference? My sparky did not do this in my house, all done with single screw terminals.

Another video of installing an exhaust for the bathroom in an existing light baton would be good 😊

Great vids. Any chance of showing how to wire an isolation switch for a GPO?

If it was up to speed, none of us would be upgrading !!!

This should be a mandatory video for TPG Australia.!!!

Agreat handy video, just the one I'VE been looking for, having NBN in tomorrow to do the change over and as a retired electrician I had a 1000 questions and they have nearly all been answered here thank you

As a licensed electrician this video is scary… too many home DIY’ers watching these things.. I’m glad I don’t work in residential anymore.

More videos please mate they're very helpful for my apprenticeship

What a great teacher

perfect explanation.

Mate, this was a really great explainer! Thank you!

Those AFL connectors putting fusion splicers on the shelf, it's funny how these companies take advantage of the resident not knowing anything about acceptance loss. I figured you lost about minimum .4 dB possibly .6, the contamination was all over plus a good tech would have cleaned out the bulkhead before insertion, regardless. If he had burned on pigtails, could have been less loss, around .2dB, it depends on what kind of upload application you are needing at the residence, so for every 1dB loss is 20%. I did not see what the power meter was reading but a good tech would have had OTDR and calculated all the loss for you to the NBN. Some facilities would never allow those AFL connectors, it's residential so, the hell do they know, If you are paying for that drop, 100% I am sure you not getting the full benefit of that SM.

You forgot to use a ziptie on your socket.

I can't believe that your NBN provided uostreams are only 25mbit on a 250mbit plan. In NZ and the US they're symmetrical for most ISPs.

Awesome explanation, awesome video, well done mate.
