This was excellent video You should do a disclaimer and let people know it's deenergized before you start for everybody safety Cause you was like what can you touch what can't you touch then you touched some stuff you shouldn't lol .

Good videos. Can you spice them up a little by maybe incorporating a dance, song, hip hop, possibly a clogging act, maybe throw in some circus animals. Thanks pal!!

Thank you Craig i love your video im going to school in Texas and im taking the clase in Spanish and come to you channel to learn the parts in inglish thank you very much i just sucribed to you channel

I might have missed it, but I didn't hear the neutral and ground are only combined in a main panel and not in a subpanel. nice video. I am always looking to learn more. cheers
Thank you so much for this video and your explaining it’s very good . I really like the way you explain step-by-step . just I have a request please if you can make a video explaining why we have to connect grounding with a neutral together and can we separate them .thank you.
On a Single Phase 120 / 240 VAC 200 Amp Service for Dwelling Units, Residential, Code allows 3-ought Conductors to be used for the Phases, the Un-grounded conductors and 2-ought for Neutral or ''grounded '' conductor if using 90* C THHN CU conductors.
I like your videos. Not to be picky This is a single phase panel so there is only one transformer so the two hot wires are LINE ONE AND LINE TWO. I called them phase a and phase b also I have been in the trade since 1975 I went to a seminar from Tom Henry electrical class about 25 years ago That"s when he schooled us when we called them phase a and phase b
@@robertverburg7502 How ever you want to refer to it is up to you!! The proper term is Phases and is also referred to as lines. Thank you for watching!!! CM
@@robertverburg7502 Don't get all uppity, they are 180 degrees out of phase with each other, they're phases. And why put this comment under the comment "Gracias teacher"?
What is meant by "200 amp" and "100 amp" panels? Is it the maximum current that can go into the panel and service all of the circuits that panel serves? Is it governed, limited, by the main breaker or simply that is the maximum current coming in fron the cables? IOW are the incoming cables the same for 100 and 200 amp panels and the difference the main breaker limit? These two panels look different in their internal construction. What is the brand of the first, 200 amp, panel?
In a home with a 100AMP service, how do I determine which bus bar is for the ground and which is for the nutural . Especially when electricians used both bars for both the nutural and grounding systems? Why would they do that? They have both the nutural and ground wires from different circuits going into the same bus bars. Wouldn't it be simpler and more professional looking to keep them separated (a cleaner install)?
Craig when do you use Ser vs Seu If you have a meter on the side of your house and your first means of disconnect is you main panel which is in the basement of your home what cable do you use to connect the meter to the main panel
Hello one question. Does the amperage capacity of the general switch depend on the capacity of the electrical panel conductors? If the electrical panel supports 200 amps, is that the maximum that the main switch should carry? I appreciate your response
The main breaker should be rated no higher than the panel rating which is determined by the thickness of the bus bars. For example you could have 4/0 AL SER cable good for 200 amps from the meter disconnect feeding a panel rated for 100 amps, but the breaker controlling that panel needs to be 100 amp. You sometimes run into this with the uncommon 300 amp service consisting of a 200 and 100 amp panels.
I had a metal building built and we are putting in a 100 amp subpanel to supply power to the building, by connecting to the main panel in our home....approximately 70 feet away. We ran our conduit and wires thru before we realized we Failed to mark the wires. What is the safest way to find the hot wires? Please help.
Hi Craig! Could you please produce a video or at least give your pro-opinion on SER cable. I'm wiring a 100 amp sub panel (80 ft run through attic), and I'm not honestly sure if aluminum is a decent product, albeit 1/3 the price of copper. I've always used copper for this application, 3-3-3-5, but do you believe a 2224 is dependable and long term, safe? Thank you!
I am very interested in installing a sub panel in my detached shop. I want to put a 50 amp 240v volt in my house panel to feed my sub panel. I am running 80 feet from house panel using 6/3 ga underground burial direct earth wire although I want to enclose it in pvc conduit. I would love for you to guide me. Thanks in advance
If you are using conduit, you should probably use individual conductors, like THWN-2 copper wires. Direct burial is meant for direct burial and might be hard to pull through conduit, and might be against some codes.
How can I figure out the phases of my box? Mine is about 20 years old. Some people say it's left and right. Others says it's staggered (each one going down alternates A and B). Im confused! But need to wire up my music studios outlets all on the same phase...

You are welcome. This stuff is not easy to understand. I do what I can to break it down so anyone can understand. Thanks for watching!!! CM

Hey this is a great video and a very good description thanks for making it

They are not phases That panel is a single phase 120 240 panel The two hot wires are Line one and Line 2

Craig when do you use Ser vs Seu If you have a meter on the side of your house and your first means of disconnect is you main panel which is in the basement of your home what cable do you use to connect the meter to the main panel
Your meter with main breaker is first means of disconnect!! That point on to your panel you need to use SER!! CM
It's just a meter with no main breaker, panel is first means of disconnect
Then you will use SEU to your main panel!! SER would be for a sub panel. I read your question wrong I guess! Hope this helps!! CM

Hello , sir thanks for sharing!! Can the ground be connected on a additional ground bar on the subpanel where you connected neutral and ground?
Yes this is a model of a main service!! A sub panel the neutrals and the grounds are separated!! CM
On the 100 amp main breaker do you have 100 amps on each phase or total load on the breaker? and is it the same on the 200 AMP.
100a total load

say what can you touch what can't you touch and use his fingers to touch 240v .
How can I figure out the phases of my box?
Mine is about 20 years old. Some people say it's left and right.
Others says it's staggered (each one going down alternates A and B).
Im confused! But need to wire up my music studios outlets all on the same phase...
Why is the neutral connected in the middle?? & not on neutral bar??
My panel main breaker has two 100 amp breakers. Is my panel 100 amp?
Looking forward to another video friday! :)
Could you please show pipe bending? Thank you so much.
If you go to my playlist I have my pipe bending videos there!!! Thanks for watching!! CM
@@craigmichaud-electricalins4602 Excellent thank you so much God bless you.
Why can't they make them the same way. Can you use a 200A panel on a 100A service?
Take the ring off and don’t touch the panel. Especially if your audience my be layman. Otherwise a good tutorial.
