@@Mahomes2222 I will… My next videos are gonna be testing at three phase motor, building a lift station with float, switches and relays, interview with the controls engineer, and eventually I want to rebuild the color sorting conveyor system that I made in school, but make it much better. Do you have any ideas for good videos?
My wife's sister painted those like 7 or 8 years ago. I look at it like this my RUclips channel is still and it's very early stage and I'm experimenting with different formats and styles... Plenty of room for improvement and plenty of time to improve that's where I look at it
we used to have shutdowns at power plants and factories where we worked 7 12-hour days for weeks even had crazy work 16-hour days they don't do it as much nowadays nuclear plants decided greater than 72 hours was causing more accidents and errors. we would have no free time just eat sleep drive to work.
@@ranger178 yeah you don't see that as much but in my region that is not uncommon at the steel mills lot of guys doing 6 12s at 45+ per hour. Personally I'm not really built for it but I've been known to push it pretty hard from time to time. After a week or two I got to slow down though
@@ranger178 I actually know a few people that earn in the 200,000+ range due to O/T. It's funny I know a handful of high earners. The highest earning people I know are business owners with little to no education, the next few wealthiest people I know are people are doing industrial maintenance lol. Not a lot of people with bachelor's degrees pulling over 200
@@gregroche7323 yeah a few weeks of it and i need a day off I was fine with 40 hours a week we had some guys who did jobs 16 hours a day all week in mad rush to finish and get place up and running they would even just sleep in their cars in parking lot.
This is probably so dumb but I try not to give out really any information about how the place I work operates. I'm also completely anonymous about where I work at this current time it's not listed anywhere on the internet. I will say this, some places use it, some places don't. It really depends on the scale and size of the operation. Some places just have a bunch of machines with their own plc's and an HMI on each machine, some places have a scada system thay lets you know what's going on all over the plant. At the technician level scada modifications and HMI modifications are pretty uncommon, generally you just need to have a little bit of knowledge of network communication and at least some ability to troubleshoot using PLC logic
@@Don-kk7ou well Electrical Maintenance technician is usually doing maintenance on machines, repairing automation systems in a factory. Sometimes it's called instrumentation and electrical technician, automation & electrical technician. Usually there are calibrations, installing/ troubleshooting motor controls, looking at PLC logic etc Residential Electricians install wires, switches, lights, conduit breaker panels etc. They also do repairs of course.
I love your vids. Always end up coming back to your page for instrumentation.
Love the vids please make more ❤

@@gregroche7323those sound good man keep it up , in my 2nd semester in electro mechanics
Nice what area are you in?
@@gregroche7323 West Virginia/ Pittsburgh area
Safety first always, keeps safe.
I like the update style safety and not overworking yourself are overlooked alot. Btw I also like the pictures in the background

Does your place use SCADA?

@@gregroche7323that’s fair, thanks for the info.
What is the difference between electrical tech and residential electrician.
