You read very quickly. It doesn’t allow those of us who need to read the code multiple times - enough time to let the information sink in. Aside from that great video! On my finals for basic.
Indeed I do. But one can at least rewind and replay if necessary-which cannot be said of a face-to-face classroom environment.
I am working on motor banks in my 3rd year right now. Can you touch a bit on conductor size for secondary circuits for motor controller to resistors and insulation temperature ratings. I am having problems getting the right answers. I think it's because of temperature ratings. Going to talk to instructors tomorrow, as i am ahead
Hello, thanks for the comment. Indeed the secondary circuit is challenging when calculating wound rotor motors. If you take a look at my Specialty motor calculations from Section 28, further rule reference and directions are provided.
Wow - thank you so much for all of the work you put in to these videos. Incredibly helpful.
Thanks for the comment. My pleasure, hopefully the content provided will assist you through your apprenticeship levels of training!
Very useful. Thanks.
Good to hear. Thanks for the comment
Excellent! Thanks.
Great to hear, thanks for the comment
Would you please tell us which text book is good for understanding grounding and bonding? Thanks.
Not a problem, Soars Book on Grounding & Bonding IAEI This has been the best resource I have found for many years. Clear, concise, color images, excellent rationale and application-even for rare situations and systems. Every journeyman electrician should read this book before the end of their technical training. Thanks for the question.
Alex advise me for below situation: If we have a TAP conductor which is less than 7.5 meter, we never use O/C for that. Tap conductor is not service then as per subrule 10-616 subrule 3) a) we need to check O/C ampacity which is missing here, Item b) allow us to consider conductor ampacity just for voltage drop not anything else. Then for such situation what should we do?
Tap conductors length is 7.5 m or less -> Rule 14-100 1) c) Item i) or ii), whichever is greater: i) one-third of the overcurrent device that is protecting the feeder conductor Or ii) The rating of the overcurrent device that the tap conductor supplies
@@Dayvon11 Sorry I think I asked my question wrongly. I mean that how should we size a bonding conductor for a tapped circuit? for example what is a bonding conductor size for a 5 meter tapped conductor which come out of a 125A splitter?
This is a great situation you bring up Abouzarfallah. Although the bonding rules do not provide specific directions for this situation, it is likely your local inspector would require the bond to be the greater of 10-616(3)(a) or (b). If larger tap conductors were chosen from 14-100(c), it would be logical to increase the size of the bond to carry the increase capability of the tap during fault conditions. By the way, my name is not Alex :)
Hi Alex, Your videos are awesome. I really enjoy them. In Minutes 11:37 you use breaker size for sizing system bonding jumper. I believe that if there would be a fault on X1 and body of transformer, the secondary (60A fuse) would never sense it, then I believe we should ignore it and back to the primary side of transformer. As section 14 says, primary O/C times by transformer ratio will be considered as secondary protection. So that value will be referenced for table 16 to figure out system bonding jumper size.
Abouzarfallah, thanks for the comment. Although I agree with some of the logic you have described, it really depends on where the fault originates. If the fault is prior to the secondary OC, then yes, no fault current would flow through this OC-and it would not trip. I this situation we would be depending on the primary OC to trip due to the increase in primary current. Although it may seem imperative to always design the system with maximum safety, the CEC rules are there to provide a balance to equipment cost-in this case, sizing the system bonding jumper from the first OC protecting the separately derived system (secondary OC). Most likely, the fault current-in the worst case-wiuld case such a sharp increase in current that the primary OC would trip. Great question.
CAN YOU SHOW WHERE YOU GET TOTAL W 98.35 KW IF YOU ADD EACH UYNIT KW = 24 KW *4 = 96KW HOW ABOUT OTHER LOAD =29.22 KW IF WE ADD ALL LOADS = 125.22KW FOR TOTAL COUDUCTOR AMP IS IT RIGTH TNX
Awesome man thanks
My pleasure, just trying to assist apprentices along the way.
Thanks for this!
No problem, just trying to make things a bit easier for the average apprentice in training.
Good Content
Thanks for the comment. Just trying to make stuff available which assists individuals through their apprenticeship training.
@@Red_Seal_Electricin it totally helps hearing It explained a different way . I'm in my 4th period of schooling and your videos are downright excellent !
I think mode 3 is banned for electrical apprentices in Alberta when taking any tests :(
Actually, the ITA provides the necessary Sharp calculators (mode 3 calculators) for the apprentice final TQ exams. Just like numbering system conversions, if you know how to do it, the process is quick and efficient.
@@Red_Seal_Electricin Yep I am dead wrong
In minutes 6:50 I believe that as 3 conductor cable space is 110% then it is not needed to multiply it's ampacity by T5D.( actually 110% is enough space to pass the air and make the multiconductor cable cool) Respectively for other 3 single conductors we should consider 3 conductors and then look at T5D fourth column which is 0.87
Thanks for the comment. I totally agree with you, this appears to have been an oversight. Thanks for letting me know!
use EMT ?
use emt first
why not use table 6-a
Afternoon, Table 10 was used because of different types/sizes of wire. In the 2024 edition table 10 has been deleted, along with some adjustment of values means we will only be using table 6, 8, 9 going forward.
Doing my 3rd year electrical and this video has been super helpful
Glad to hear it, the CEC can be a challenge at the best of times. Check out my playlists for lots of L3 relevant 3phase calcs.
@@Red_Seal_Electricin I will for sure be checking them out :)
Mircom pull station or edward pull station?
I believe there is one of each shown in the video. Thanks for the comment.
EOL connects to pull station
Depending on the country you reside in, the standard for where the EOL is mounted can change. In Canada, it is more common to have the EOL in it's own separate box. Thanks for the comment.
HI and thanks for remarkable videos. Please make some video about 8-104 and 8-106 which speaks about breaker and cable sizing for continuous load
Thanks for the note. For sure, this is a valid calculation which often gets difficult to interpret. I'll see about drafting something this month.
✨💗💗
Thanks!
Nowhere in this video do state that beta is a function of the actual type of transistor. At 4:00 you say that beta is Ic over Ib, and you have chosen those values. You then use the calculated value of beta and apply it other examples. People will be misled into thinking they set both the base and collector current and that beta is whatever they design it to be. This isn't how it works. Beta is a property of the particular transistor you are using, it changes from transistor type to type, it varies across transistors of the same type AND it is sensitive to temperature. You need to tell people to go look up in the datasheet what the typical value for beta is for the transistor they are using. *_THEN_* use beta in the Ic =β.Ib formula.
Thanks for your comment. There will be many times throughout this presentation that specific details are waxed over. This is intentionall-and required to a point-due to the targeted audience. The channel presentation are targeted for the Canadian electrical apprenticeship program. The depth and scope of which is intentionally shallow on some topics that an average electrician would not often work on. Thanks again for your comment.
The resistor isn't present to limit the current through the diode, it's there to ensure enough current flowing through the zener to enable it to breakdown at its designed zener voltage. The manufacturers' data sheets always tell you what the minimum current is to achieve the designed breakdown voltage. If you don't pass enough current, it won't give you the specified voltage. Now, as with any electronic component, if you pass too much current through it, it will burn out.

Perhaps in the future. I am attempting to keep videos within the topic boundaries of electrical apprenticeship in Canada.
Substation battery charger video
Great idea, however the scope of the channel is focused on electrical apprenticeship topics. Perhaps over time there will be further expansion into other areas. Thanks for the idea.
I've used the tip to tail (I think some folks call it crisscross) method to check fuses in the past, however, in the case of motors (won't be running anyway if you have a blown fuse) I simply de-energize the starter and "ohm" out the fuses (including the control fuses). I've found this to be a much more effective, efficient and safer way (hierarchy of control) to troubleshoot. Really enjoying your videos, thanks!
I completely agree with you Colin on all aspects that you mentioned. The only reason I continue to provide detail on this method is simply due to its inclusion in provincial objectives for the electrical program in Canada & the Red Seal. Its application flys in the face of hazard mitigation and live work procedures. Thanks for your comment!
