@@MatSmithLondon Hi Mat, for starters there is no such thing as a dumb question, just dumb answers. To answer your question regs 134.1.1 and 134.1.4 , these however would also depend on your engineering judgment . This trunking was fitted into an industrial unit, which can be damp environments especially at higher levels due to temperature changes. Most of what I fit is in plant rooms, which also have environmental changes which can cause condensation and damp. How long before it rusts, totally depends on environment the trunking is to be installed. We recently done an upgrade on a plant room which I originally installed 25 years ago, due to correct installation methods the old trunking and conduit were still in sound condition. Hope this helps. Regards Eddie
I will be using this technique for Legrand trunking around perimeter of my garage. There are some mini trunking sections for sockets and light switches I need to navigate over.
How has he NEVER heard the term Gary Nevel? I'm also wonder if he knows what Poets Day means? Going back to spraying the trunking? I'm just wondering why he didn't file the tray properly, because when I file things. I make it so that you can rub your helmet along it, so it's baby smooth. When I did my apprenticeship with W. E. Mannin's, everyone always took the piss out of us. Saying we spent more time filing, than doing the job. Well there was this one job where we had loads of subbies and they couldn't be ducked to file or even do a decent job. So Paul (who was a good friend and a gold card like myself) ended up cutting his hand open on the end of a bit of tray and had to go to A&E. You can probably imagine from then on that NO ONE took the piss out of us filing properly. And ever single subbie was told countless times to file properly. Even if it's something your never going to see or touch, you still file it. I recon there's a lot of people that'll agree with me, but going back to subbies. There's only 1 out of 10 that are actually any good at their job. You also NEVER lend them anything because they'll either break it or loose it. This is coming from years of experience btw and you can size them up straight away. It's only the 1 out of 10, that you'll trust with tools as well. I know this is a really long rant. But it's true 😐
Today many RUclips advertising in this video. It breaks four times for every two ads. Why spend efixx how self show many ads not for a RUclips free advertising? It is better to follow the things ...
That was my only issue with anything in that video. I hate with a passion opening up a board/trunking to find that it's been bushed and the bushes are full to the gills, but the board still has capacity. Much rather paxolin or even some manufactures are now making folded edged bottom plates instead of the fully sealed ones as shown in the video
@@darylsavage119 fair point, totally agree. Thought there is 6 x 38mm bushes in bottom and also 6 x 38mm in the top, More than plenty entries, if they were all filled to the gills, both the DB and trunking would be undersized. Just a thought.
@@eddie_pegasus_electrical fair enough, typically in the shop fitting I do, we have 6 or 7 boards fed of a select panel, and the boards are all different sizes fed by either a top or bottom entry 12x9 trunking, so in our situation it would be awful to bush, but every situation is different!
The other issue you have with using bushes is people take live and neutrals of the same circuit through different bushes, I always slice the bottom of the trunking and fit paxolin, MEM EATON do a trunking interface kit for there boards and they are great
Additional cleanup and works fine without? I mean you technically should... but who cares if the cut is okay and the hole saws are the cheap set from screwfix?
@@eddie_pegasus_electrical So I'm lead to believe, I was talking to Apex. about it, I haven't worked on threaded galv conduit for over 24 years. Do they shear off, they look really think, don't even cover 100% of the hole.
My boss is working as electrician in UK for 25 years and he said the unistrut under the bend like in this video was never accepted. olso it is not accepted by manufacturer because the support must be 300mm within joint
Eddie is great electrician. He’s a fountain of knowledge
I did two massive jobs with Legrand trunking.. works just perfect, all the time..
The legrand hole marking tool is a winner for marking the holes for joining the trunking
Nice to see another spark with Snap-On tools
Great quality work, nice to see how other lads do things.
Liking the drill template. Will have to make one up.
Another top tip:-
Evolution S355... you can get stainless blades for them that negate the need for filing the edges
Cheers Jonathon, will definitely look into them 👊😎👍
Brilliant video chaps, Love the cardboard tip, reducing vac time 👍🏼 ... I’ll be using a Gary Neville from now on 😂
I loved the Gary Neville moment as well 💕🦾💕
Guy seems like a proper professional 👏 bet he's class to learn from
Thank you 👊😎👍
Seems like a proper gold card spark ⚡️ don’t see a lot of good sparks anymore
Really professional install from Eddie. Thanks again for sharing guys. #StaySafe
Cheers Brian
Thank you Brian
@@eddie_pegasus_electrical It's only the truth.
Brilliant, really appreciate your content.
Very neat by Eddie . 👍✔️
He sure was 👍
@@efixx Hi eFixx - is it possible to get links to the tools being used in this video please? Great video. Eddie is brilliant!
@@joey06051988 Thank you, I'll dig out some links for you
My trunking of choice as well
👍
You could always take the plate off the DB to drill no hoovering at all then.
Fair point Gregg. More of a general tip, I work on a lot of control panels thus components, contactors etc could be effected by swarf ingress. Thanks for the observation.
👊😎👍
Fantastic video Eddie 💕🦾💕
Y’all have such better tools than we have in the us
Some of the jobs in Scotland we have to show the galvanized paint on the outside to show the galv paint is on....
I see the method in this, so consultant, inspector or QS can see that you've done it. Makes perfect sense, though I'd prefer not when on show
Sorry for the dumb Q, but is this paint necessary for indoor installs? How long will it be before it rusts (inside a cupboard under stairs?)

I wanna work with Eddie. 👍👍👍
I want to work with Steve 😆👍

@@eddie_pegasus_electrical 👍 I like the low profile socket pretty sweet tool. 👍
@@SSSwilliams it is a VERY sweet tool. It’s called a Brocket aka The Bush Socket available in 20 25mm at moment. 32 38 50mm are prototypes
@@eddie_pegasus_electrical 👍 a five piece set of them is a must. 👍
Quality stuff
Brilliant video, always helpful as usual. Is there a chop saw or a quicker way to cut 150mm x 150mm metal trunking at all
Would like to see a video please on how Eddy made that template please
ruclips.net/video/aRSY-Ch3S4k/видео.html
He is a top spark
Great job show how to de-bur all thows sharp edges. I use a nobo de-burring tool nice and quick
Why would you put the trunking on strut and not simply bolt it to the wall? Seems like unnecessary additional work and expense.
Probably to clear things, and also maybe with the strut you have a bit more play when leveling and fastening.
Some great tips.
Just wondering why the trunking was spaced off the wall (on the unistrut)?
To navigate over some of the structural steel work and we will
Also be adding some cable basket under the trunking run.
I will be using this technique for Legrand trunking around perimeter of my garage. There are some mini trunking sections for sockets and light switches I need to navigate over.
I'd love to learn metal trunking and conduit installation.
I'm tired of domestic installs.

Spraying his work bench ?
No female bushes ? Took some old inch and half bushes out probably make 3 new ones with amount of brass in one bush.
There’s a Legrand jig available for marking out turn buckles
Jig for bend holes. Legrand had my MK1 version, I’m not aware if they have produced it as yet.
👊😎👍
@@eddie_pegasus_electrical good vid 👍
@@eddie_pegasus_electrical any chance of some dimensions for that jig of joy?
@@pnxelectrical I’m making a new one hopefully this week, leave it with me.

He was mustard
How has he not heard of the Gary Neville 😂
Didn't see how he lined DB holes up with trunking? Or was it a cut first mark through?
How has he NEVER heard the term Gary Nevel? I'm also wonder if he knows what Poets Day means?

Did that draw just break?
🤣 no just clipped the trunking along side it. The show must go on !!
@@eddie_pegasus_electrical nailed it! 😁
Ahh. You need do spray the trunking ends. Oops.
Is there a reason for not using cutting compound with the hole saws?
Additional cleanup and works fine without? I mean you technically should... but who cares if the cut is okay and the hole saws are the cheap set from screwfix?
@@MatSmithLondon Only as I'm from Yorkshire.. Known for short arms and deep pockets! Makes my hole saws last longer.. :)
Nothing wrong with 3"🙂🤫

The nuts are really thin now on those bushes, where's the quality gone?
That disappeared over a decade ago unfortunately 😬

@@9plusinstalaciones yeh I saw that. Was a bit triggered by seeing the holes still once they were installed. Shame they are so paltry!
Didn’t de-bur the trunking before spraying it or the holes in bottom of board ,
I did commented that for demonstration purposes

suspiciously new looking PPE :-)
Not at all, just renewed when required and kept in a good condition. Visor approx 2 years old.
I’ll take that as a compliment, thank you Andy
200mmX200mm trunking,no ok
Top tip, get someone else to do it. 😂
So strange watching as a master electrician in the States..... that installation would be illegal here 🤔🤣🤣
How so?
Intrigued for why?
From the land of wire nuts. LOL
