    Look i just got to say. I love your videos they have given me a advantage in class i am a student at ptc. In HVACR. And because i am a girl everyone in the beginning of class was looking at me like i was going to fail. But watching the content you have provided not only have i learned i am the only one making a 4.0 and i am the only one who passed my Universal epa. In fact now they look to me for answers..and my instructor asked me the other day if i was pranking him because i was doing so good in class he thought i was already in this field..so keep on putting out these great videos i enjoy them and its making me look good i forgot to mention i do have a residential electrical degree..but they do not know it because i have not told them..i dont want to intimidate the boys..

    You're the man. I'm an electrician, I started in HVAC as a sheet metal fab worker. I can always remember, no matter what trade I was working, listening to my predecessors throw out electrical jargon like it was lamens terms. Like, "duh. You got got a open neutral on the load side of the flux capacitor...." And the reality is, that they just understood the technical way to install or fix something based on what it ought to be doing. They couldn't really explain why what's supposed to be happening. I've always wanted the "furthering education" at the companies I've worked for.... And they seldom do any of it. From time to time, they might send a handful of guys to an automation course or something. If this is how you train your guys BRAVO.

    You are right about doing much with boards. After my defrost board needed replacing and I couldn't find much info on it or boards in general, I bought one to see how it worked. It had adaptive demand defrost. General rule are the 24 vac power gets rectified to a 24v DC rail (the relays will have coil voltages of around 22v DC) then a microcontroller, running a program you can only guess at ,switches the relays via transistors. A lot of the sea of resistors and diodes/capacitors are modifying the 24vac signals so the micocontroller can read them. As for mine with ADD, another 5v DC rail which powered a ubiquitous PIC m-controller as well as the ambient and coil thermistors. Not a lot to test in the field without risking a short circuit or something besides signal input, output. Would be nice to have a good procedure to test thermistors. But even then, it is unlikely you could easily test for drift in the thermistor. So a temp reading is only marginally useful. Mostly it would be open or shorted.
    Then the future is more complex boards with tiny surface mount components. Without test ports and procedures by the manufacturer, not much you can do in the field or without a microscope.

    Short to power - unintended touching of two wires on the positive side of the load.
    Short to common - (in automotive short to ground) - unintended touching of wire on positive side of a load with the common wire/chassis (sometimes called ground).
    Common is a return path from a load to the power source (transformer) that by convention does not have any switches installed between it and the "negative" side of the power source. Thus, it is a a a logical busbar connected directly to the return (negative) side of the power supply. Common can be and, is in mains power distribution almost always, bonded to the system ground which makes it a neutral or a wire with no/very low potential difference between it and the earth ground. In HVAC, common may be "grounded" by bonding it (screwing it down) to the chassis of the cabinet. If the low voltage common is bonded to the chassis of a properly installed blower cabinet, it will then be bonded to all grounded chassis elsewhere in the building, including a properly mains wiring grounded outdoor unit. In automotive power electrical, all metal parts of the car, motor, frame, body is commoned to the negative battery terminal, and is called "ground". So any power wire (power of high side of the load) touching a metal part will cause a short to common/ground.

    As a sparky.... LDL when testing at least the initial use of the meter. It gets old quick but Live, DEAD, LIve is check known good circuit/proving box, remove power check for dead, then power up and check again. Just to make sure your meter is working, should do the same with non contact (hot stick) too. We all have trusted a hot stick and then hucked it accross the job when it failed. I know its a PITA and no I do not do it all the time either but as I have gotten older I do it MUCH more often ELECTRICITY FLOCKING HURTS.

    I would say it is good to teach new guys that our meter is a difference of potential device, phase to ground vs phase to phase, theory on the fact that 0 volts between leads means there IS voltage present. Most all apprentices that I get aren't taught this value multimeter piece of theory. Good LV content on this video. I have wondered, what is a good rule of thumb resistance value across contactor coil. I've had multiple calls, finding fuse blowing only after a call for cooling. Coil resistance less than 8 ohms usually the problem. Thanks

    I had a short one time in an old house where everytime I would touch the handle for the hot water I would get a jolt. I turned the breakers off one at a time until it stopped doing it and I found a neutral wire loose in a light fixture in a bedroom. The current had found a path to ground through a water pipe some kind of way. Everything worked fine as long as you didn't stand in water and touch the hot water valve.

    I’m a novice, that has dealt with 100’s of Goodman residential heat pumps and I really don’t understand why a heat pumps can’t have models with option of reversing valve solenoid having cooling mode default- configured so without the twenty four volts we have cooling and need solenoid energized for heating? In the southern states cooling is more important and most heat pumps have heat strips that are more then capable of heating without the heat pump.
    Unit would be more efficient and use less energy ( be more green).

      Check out you tube basic AC explained. Alternating Current is a sign wave, traveling both directions of current flow. N, neutral is a reference point in circuit, a return path for unused voltage back to AC power supply. Ground is grounded conductor, attached tho multiple electrical devices, intended as a conductor to send unwanted voltage to ground, to prevent unwanted voltage from harming equipment or more importantly humans. Grounded conductor N, vs grounding conductor, Ground,,,, this is a confusing topic for sure. As is the term Common. Common hot, common ground, common side of transformer..... on and on.
