    I know you had some negative comments on the last video. Keep your head up and keep on doing what you are doing. I myself are enjoying you content and videos. Keep at it bro.

    Do u have to draw out the circuits when ur an electrician or do u just follow a pre drawn circuit

    Hey man. Is it normal not to enjoy big commercial work and prefer smaller electrical like residential, solar panels etc. I've been working as an assistant for a big company who does all sorts of work but I'm only into the smaller type stuff and electronics.
    Thanks.

      The ceiling for resident work is super low. It’s very mundane work to anyone who likes to learn and be challenged at work

    Good days work done. Wa that the M12 bandsaw you were using? Looks like a nice neat unit.

    • @americanelectrician
      @americanelectrician  3 года назад

      It is the m18 compact band saw. They’re about the same size this one just has a little deeper cut and is heavier. The m12 came out after I got this one! Thank you!

    In my basement there is a larger gauge wire going to a junction box running to a regular single outlet, and a larger wire going to our ac fan all on 1 circuit. I hooked my shop vac up to the outlet not knowing and it recieved way too much power HELP ME

      They may have ran short for the run and used it as a jbox, not sure why they would have trimmed it out with a receptacle

    Remember if u really want to learn and grow start out in residential to gain basic concepts then get out of there lol. If this is all u want to do is residential that’s fine too. Although I wouldn’t recommend buying tools this guy uses because I promise you he doesn’t use 90% of the stuff he shills for.

      I’m a commercial and industrial service tech I don’t keep anything in my bag that I don’t use. I also don’t suggest anyone start out in residential, I think if you start in commercial and industrial you can do anything but it’s not the same for residential
