Good work, perhaps show the American viewers the way we twist 3-4 cables and screw them in. No wire nuts, no metal wall boxes. And BTW show them rhat we have rcbos on all circuits, so no issues with hitting cables in walls. Etc.

Great video! This also answered my own thoughts on why u use stranded. I'm curious....are pigtails mandatory? Since you only have one lug for each (hot/neutral/ground)? Or can u stuff 2 wires in the slot? Weird to me you need to fold over. I see why it's a good practice to be sure!
Yea mate if you have multiple cables you would twist the conductors together before putting them in the terminals. The only time you fold is when you only have the one conductor so you fill up as much space as possible inside the terminal.
@@jonokuriger8147 Wrong. It depends on how many conductors the terminal is rated for. You should never twist two wires together because you'd give the next electricians a headache when he conducts tests. For this reason twisting wires is illegal in the EU countries, perhaps in the entirety of Europe. Usually for sockets, one terminal is only rated for two wires. In the UK you can fold both wires if the terminal is big enough. In Germany using ferrules is a must when stranded conductors are used.
Can you cover converting an old light circuit with multiple Switches into one that uses smart switches. I see the smart switches only have the ability to switch one active. There is no N/C contact.
Bunnings now sell grid connect touch switches that say they are 2 way switch compatible as well as being a smart switch. I didn't have a close look to see if they have a common terminal switching between N/O and N/C terminals though.
We did have Red, Yellow, Blue for our phase colours in the 1970s. When we wanted to export equipment into the EU we changed our fixed wiring to Red, White, Blue (Green/yellow = earth) and Brown, blue, Green/Yellow for flexible leads

I like the way you twist the cable matty. Good technique mate
Awesome information. What’s the electric screwdriver your rocking?

Will be placing an order from you soon! Love what you're doing with your channel

Maybe also show the Americans how we can get six wall switches into a wall plate. They run 6 separate switches in separate boxes..????

In Finland multi stranded wire is allowed in electrical wiring only if the ends are soldered or have an end sleeve. Just twisting is illegal.
What brand of ‘smart switch’ are you using? Do we have any Apple Home compatible switches in Australia? Fans, lights, dimmers?
Where can I get that screw driver!

@@IAmThe_RA well in Aus that isn’t the case lol, I twist three cables together on the regular
@@urb6857 There is a limited amount of twisting and retwisting the wires will take before they fracture. So not the best practice.
Twist multiple wires together. On older building using single core you usually cut restrip and terminate to avoid work hardened copper breaking.
Great info 👍
What is the worst injury you got on the job?
Can you use standard sockets under cover patio
Active would you not say love ?
What ever happened to solid core wires... Instead of stranded
Can you cover converting an old light circuit with multiple
Switches into one that uses smart switches. I see the smart switches only have the ability to switch one active. There is no N/C contact.
What are you trying to achieve? A lot of this functionality can be covered in programming. Eg two way switching.

@@R1CK_54NCH3Z yes I know. There is two versions. One does not have the NC contact. Only the NO standard switches contact.
Why show them that? 😅 Clispal 2025 is the king, best gpo in the world
these fancy switches smell like money with their high failure rate
That’s a weird question. I’m Usa and wire with stranded a lot. Use a fork Or cowboy them shits.
In USA black is hot, white neutral, green is ground
USA sucks. And we dont call it "hot" either (wtf), we call it "active"
I see you use a sort of hybrid, between the old and new UK wiring colour codes.

Red is line ?
Line? Active/hot or A phase with White = B phase and Blue = C phase in a 240/415 three phase system.
@@allangoodger969 usa 3 phase
Line 120v black red and blue
Neutral white
Ground green
@@Aaidk86 Yep, just cant get my head around white as a neutral. After 40 years as a sparky.
