I’ve done electrical for 6 years. I work in any state I want, if I’m unemployed it’s because I want the vacation. Between side work and the demand for the trade is overwhelming… once you have the groove down then you can easily work for yourself and scratch out the employer. However… the amount of knowledge needed as well as work ethic is real… I mean god damn real…. You work in every dirty, uncomfortable, as well as tight spaces. However the independence you gain from the knowledge is a life saver.

As a residential electrician apprentice. Residential work fucking sucks. Plain and simple.

You make 100k a year as a electrician

As an auto technician turned commercial electrician I am so tired of seeing these stupid videos with stock footage showing 50% of the workforce as women - in 14 years of working in the trades I can think of two actual women that I have worked with hands on and neither of them were any good at all. 🙄

Don't let the 15-20 an hour deter you from becoming an Electrician. I will tell you now you newbies that you can work your way up and eventually Project managers and Inspectors. These can pay day rates at and you can make 200k a year (with overtime of course). There are jobs that can pay 75 an hour and it depends where you go. You will learn this once you get into the trade and make your way up and establish a good career network. You get into the commissioning portion with a major corporation and work overseas you can easily make 300+ a year. Establish good work ethic and you will never be out of a job. Always learn on your personal time. Don't be one of those people that only allow themselves to learn what the company provides because you will always have to make self investment. This is coming from someone with 17 years in the industrial industry.

The wages here are severely out of date

Apprenticeship and trade schools are only for N. America

Full of shit

"here's what you MUST know" as described by a person who has never done any electrical work in his life

I am very interested in electrical work, I did studies in electrical courses dealing in air conditioning, electrical maintenance and installation, solar and motor control.... I am interested in an aviation electrician job. Could you help out and find the school for that.

I was a plumber for 4 months, and I didn’t enjoy it because I worked with poop. This much cleaner job is something for me, I will go as IT-electrician as German navy soldier on a ship.

different types of electrician jobs as explained by someone who has absolutely no clue what the careers are about

every time an idiot reminds me not to "forget" to like/sub = instant dislike

On site generators, not in Australia, mostly.

Do a right hand twist action. .

Study, experience, time, effort and motivation great summary.

I learned the guy at 2:48 failed rough inspection

I honestly think this is why a lot of older TV personnel are more humble and grounded, because their careers were forged through necessity and they weren't afraid to get their hands dirty and play in the mud.

my dads an color blind electrician and he is one of the best past all his tests 1st time 100% and won multiple 1st place prizes in competitions idk what your talking about

Will 10 sq mm aluminium service wire be perfect for air conditioner connection from meter?

Worked 7 years now doing this and was never told this and found out today all my experience i have doesn't amount to nothing

I’m making 2k a week as an apprentice on the pipeline there’s way more money in this than people let on.

Not only does this sound narrated by an AI voice, but also written as generic as possible by AI.

I don’t wanna change careers for 52k 😂 I hope they can easily pull more than that

You can lose your license doing side work lol

Bruh idk where you get your numbers from but in 8 years already earning six figures quadrupled my gfs salary and she has her masters degree. Two days of over time pay for me is equal to her 2 week paycheck lol. TRADES ARE THE FUTURE, they’re basically what use to be taught in all universities until they removed it from the curriculum and fooled the middle class into thinking the only way to get a job is with a degree. Despite the plethora of evidence that says otherwise, look at the richest most successful people, no degree dropouts. Should tell you that Uni teaches 😂 is only a measure of perseverance.

I’m a solar electrician in California. Even with the industry hurting at the moment, base salary is 120k a year. After bonus and over time I’ll clear 180k. Totally recommend this trade

Dope video ! What about Electricians: residential vs commercial? Which is better ?

HOME DEMOLITION & THE RUIN IT YOUR SELF CROWD. THEM HAIRY HOME OWNERS THINK THEY ARE GODS & WRECK THERE HOMES.

“Why did you pick this career” The money.. who tf wants to do it just cause ofc it’ll be a fun learning experience but if it wasn’t for the money we’d have no electricity 😂

this video is the epitome of comedy homicide. you killed all these memes with your brutally lame voice over

This has been extremely helpful, I'm leaning towards this as a trade. Many of the trades are options for me but electrical has always been the one that draws me. Well that and house painting but my dad was my in for that industry and he's not with us anymore.

You need to have a strong knowledge of maths, simple as that and if you don't then you are not going to be an electrician.

If you aren't great at maths then you wont become an electrician

as a current 2nd year apprentice i'm just gonna say so far the video has some info wrong for the US. my requirements in the NE part of the US are as follows. 160 hrs of schooling per year for 4 years, 8000 hours of in the field experience over those 4 years, and multiple trainings on many aspects of electrical theory/safety. I make 22.00/hr as a 2nd year apprentice who came in with 2 years in residential/solar.

when i started as a apprentice, i was working for a electric contractor. they went broke, so i continued my apprentiship as a maintenance electrician. i then worked in contracting after i was 21, but i went back into maintenance in 1977. i remained doing that until i retired in 2015 at age 65. i would say for me , being a maintenance i was doing installs, as well as repair work. great time for me.

The reason I'm watching this video is I helped a guy with the wiring of his shop, and I somewhat enjoyed wiring up all the electrical outlets. What I didn't like though was not having a map of the circuits and constantly trying to figure out where each wire went and what circuit it was on. I get confused with really complex problems so the problem-solving part of this job might be difficult for me. Does anyone with experience have any thoughts on how you can know if you want to be an an electrician?

Da bears

Play at all costs!!
