It was great to have you on site for those (short 😢) few days! The final result looks great and the cable you used looks... familiar?? As a side, at about 33:06 Cory starts dancing (At least we think it's dancing?) and we can't believe you didn't notice 😂
Amazing guys work! Very nice idea you installed on the wall. Cory makes these videos. He's funny putting spiders in Jordan's EV. Wait to see Jordan will laugh.. Thumbs up!!!! Cheers!!!
Your best video for a while. I really enjoyed it, I also prefer watching industrial work over domestic, and I would rather do it too. The Armeg screw head looks a great little tool. I might have to invest in one. I would have preferred to see the cables dressed on the lower side of the tray, then any additional cables that needed to be added wouldn’t have to cross everything you’ve just installed. A transition to a smaller piece of tray for the drops down to the chargers would have looked even more professional. It’s always easy to comment as your watching someone else’s install in the comfort of your home. It’s completely different when you’re on site with what you believe is all the materials you will need. I know from experience. Keep the vids coming guys 👍
“Up the creek without a paddle!” , is the appropriate description and is suitable for use Down-under. I have generally heard more colourful language used in the example provided! 😂😜
It’s actually really stupid and dangerous, there’s a true story in America when a woman died after lowering her sun visor and a spider fell on her lap , she panicked and went straight over a cliff edge . I’d go mental if he did that to my van .
@@mrgfromoxford8644 yeah I wouldn’t be very happy either. I hate spiders massively. I don’t think he intended for it to go inside the actual dash though looking at his reaction
I have used an Ideal cable sheath stripper like Knipex brand since 1978. It has saved me alot of time and skined cables over the years. Enjoyed the video and learned somethings too.
Great video, absolutely love the passion & pride you guys have for the trade.👍🏼 I hope no spiders were harmed in the making of this video.😂 You all have done a really neat & tidy job of the EV chargers.👌🏼 Cory thanks for the funny entertainment, Well done guys.👏🏼
we do 1.5m for every bracket, and uni strut for cable tray runs, we use the zebs clips and the 90s clips on the side to hold them in place as well the connections on the tray so they are very secure, from the ceiling and along a wall as well
Nice job except using 200mm cable tray was excessively wide, and the cables just resting over the edge of the tray?? As mentioned below, I'd also be furious if someone put a spider in my vehicle like that. Not to mention a bit sad for the spider too.
Great video guys !. Looking forward to the factory tour. I was looking at the amount of green mould on the old Rolec units your removed and the huge amount of green mould on the that drip fence, at the bottom of the side cladding ( above your new cable trays ) sitting on the top of brick wall of the building. The amount of water that hits the side of the factory, is ALL leaving off that drip fence. When it leaves the drip fence, all of that water is going to test the I.P. rating of them new four units to the Max !. I personal would recommend some additional protection from the sheer deluge of water leaving the side of that factory cladding via the dip fence. They could really do with four small canopies over each of the wall boxes really ?. I think it would really scary to see the level / amount of water hitting them units in a heavy storm. No I.P rating is going to stand up to that level of water ingress long term. What do you think Jordan ?. A recommendation to the customer to install a few small canopies ?. Could save a few calls backs due water ingress 🤔?.
Nice work boys. Just an idea but I personally would of cut t pieces into the tray where the armoureds come down and used tray to come down to just above the EV chargers. Would given a nicer finish rather than the armoured coming over the sides of the tray. Other than that nice work. Keep up the great content!
Great video guys! One point to note, in my experirence using cable ties on outside cable tray. The ties only last for about 5 years, due to the weather and enviroment conditions. Best to use cable clamps - more expensive though! I had the task of replacing the snapped ties on a run of tray once, man that SWA cable was heavy!
RJ11 connector, not RS485 (which is a serial standard). I also hope you clamp each current clamp onto the same phase of the incomer as the charger is connected to. It'd be entertaining otherwise. (3 phase is such fun!)
@@davepusey nah mate, RJ11 has the possibility of having 6 pins, it is usually seen with just 4 connectors, but on some telephones you will see just 2 used, RJ9 / RJ11 or RJ22 have 4 pins but are smaller in size than the RJ11
What a video! Please do way more multi-charger installs if possible! Would be great to see e.g. 4 Zappies, each with 3phase and with full solar and battery integration 🤓 Of course you need the customer for this, but if possible, please do!!
Being an ole boy from heavy industry, a few old euphamsims entered this apprentices' tender ears in the 1980's. Most cannot be repeated! Amongst the more tame was up sh*t creak. If something turned into a huge job unexpectedly, it was said to be 'a bigger epic than Ben Hurr'. If many things went wrong at once it was said to be a 'cluster f*ck'.
Good job guys but the only thing letting you down is the hole you made for the cable entry to the board. Use some fire rated foam or fire products to seal and protect.
One thing puzzles me though. If that cable has 3 cores and a data cable in it won't the AC frequency I give interference on the data lines? As I understand from a network point of view you never run a cat5 cable along AC cables.

Very nice work! The only thing you should have done is to put the cabels low on the tray instead of high as if in the future you add more chagers the new cabels now has to cross the old cabels.
No way that spider will come out on the Motorway...the range will have it back in a charge station before the spider makes it out from behind the dash. 🤣🤣🤣
What you use in industrial applications looks a lot like what we use in residential applications in Canada, haha... Although residential and industrial are actually pretty similar here, just the scale is different.
I assume since Doncaster Cable is calling it Cat5 it passes standard Cat5 tests, but I'd be interested to see the performance with it literally bundled beside high amperage power wires. Obviously speed isn't terribly important if it's just being used to monitor the CT's or give a data connection to the Charger, but it would be interesting to know regardless. Is it a shielded Cat5?
Looking at the specs for these cables, it's just a normal Cat 5 cable rolled in with the other wires. None of the chargers use the full speed of a Cat 5 and it's only used to make it easier to hook them up to an existing network, so it's doubtful the noise from the power going through the neighbouring wires is a concern. Would not be surprised if they worked just as well with a regular phone cable hooked up to the RJ45 connectors
It must have been in 70's when Ideal were selling a cable sheath stripping tool just like that, a 'V' section to guide the cable with an eccentric central , rotating blade so it stripped around the cheath and then along the sheath. They were standard issue at a company back in those days as 'American District Telegraph' I probably still have one somewhere.
looks really good with the tray and all only thing i would have done different is to not use foam to close the hole since it tends to look really nasty after some time and crumble, but silicon would also be no good by that big of a hole, best would be mortar or cement or something similar
Oh guys that don't look good perhaps you should have come off top off the try and down back instead of crossing trunking also did you earth it enjoyable vid tho
its all about the FLUSH CUTTER!! :) but i'll defend the interchangeable Wera drivers for service calls or field service work specifically where you have flown or traveled by ship to the job.
Another great video, nice to see you all hard at work, and taking such pride and care with the install, good to see some other makes of EV chargers to, the last one looked neat and compact, but tight to wire? ideal for the front of my house (maybe) :) nice to see the different EV Ultra cables they make, and they you may get your own Tag on it, on the subject of the cable, there are no instructions of how to enter the free giveaway for the Artisan Branded EV Ultra Cable :) maybe its just a thumbs up (done) and a comment? (done). Can not wait for the next upload from you :):)
Should have left one of the old chargers live to charge the new van while you worked 🤣⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡don't worry about the spider he'll just walk back to doncaster cables where ever the ev van stops.
Question, surely it is a bad idea to be running data cables in such close proximity to the power cables due to factors like EMC and RFI. Even with shielded data cables, surely they should be run at least a couple of inches apart. I appreciate the practicalities of just having a single cable, but fear this could be a factor in many vehicles having trouble connecting at some chargeports. Interested in your thoughts / opinions. (the product datasheets seem to be particularly vague on this matter, I would be interested in some test data)
Come on, you can use standard side cutters and get a flush cut. I only found this out about 2 months ago after twenty five years in the industry. We live and learn.
4 chargers did you put each charger on a different phase to balance the load on the three phases obviously 2 of the 4 will have be on one phase , bit of diversity would apply but if all the chargers were on at the same time it could give you load issues depending on what else is being supplied .worth a thought I would also cut the t into the tray to do the drops to the chargers .but nice work keep it up 👍👍
I would love to see your own branded cables that would be brilliant because that would be able to advertise who installed it and who done the amazing cable running and amazing angle drilling
“The difference between any old cowboy, and an Artisan [cowboy]…” 😉 When I need a cowboy to install my EV charger, I’ll be asking for an Artisan cowboy 🤠
Makes perfect sense, and there are two points in there. Firstly the “any old” is generally used when comparing one type of cowboy with another type of cowboy. It’s actually superfluous in Jordan’s statement as he doesn’t need to use it, however seeing as he does, he’s implying that Artisan are cowboy, but it’s more likely to be a Freudian slip. Secondly, Artisan aren’t cowboys so I’d have them here when I get an EV installed.
I used to live about 200 metres from the doncaster cables factory in bentley. I still work in sunny donny! In fact the house i lived in is on the far left of the drone shot at 16:34!
I’ve got a RS pro wire stripper I used offshore which is very similar to the one in this video. Never had much luck with it so stuck with knife but going to give it another go👍
I appreciate this was to show off Doncaster EV Ultra cable which I love, but using a selection of different charge points with their own CT clamps, internet connections, apps, internal protective devices and PEN fault systems seems bonkers and rather messy. If three phase is available then all outlets should be three phase. I can't see that having multiple "brains" trying to load manage is going to work properly. I would have used Woertz Ecobus Power I 5G16mm2 flat cable from a single 63A MCB and tapped off four times and used Easee outlets that talk to each other. One PEN fault/earth rod installation. Can control charging via RFID cards and have reception keep some for guests
Its good to see people take pride in the skill and trade ( i am not a sparky) dunno how you even came up on my feed if im honest i would like a jargon busting video if you guys see this i know you say a load of letters i just call a lot of what you give strange names too a fuse only thing i know what to do is wire a plug bRown = Right bLue = Left and the earth is the top
That EV ultra stripper is also under another name originally called "WEICON". The EV ultra branded one must be more expensive but they are both exactly the same thing made in the same factory
@@artisanelectrics for sure, there’s also one with a knife blade on top. Spare blades aren’t easily available on amazon, weicon do sell them. I’d just sharpen it by hand
I’m a bit confused? Do the data cables not have problems being run so close to power cables? I routed my two outdoor spec data cables in my workshop with the power cables and I was advised my CAT6 need to be > 800mm away from power cables?? Happy days, I don’t need to faff about now.
17:30 Safety Sally here, your local health and safety watch officer. I would have to say most of the video safety glasses weren't being worn. In most factories at least here in the USA they require at least glasses when inside. Then if you are on man lifts or scissor lifts they require hard hats in case you run into things either driving or going up. Then I assume everyone doing electrical work has electrically safe footwear on as well? Canada is one of the worst requiring green triangle hydro (power company) approved boots for any electrical work. However I will overlook any metal jewelry (watches rings) being worn doing electrical work. I have seen some very nasty burns from people wearing rings hitting live conductors. And for goodness sake don't wear clothes with metal zippers running right down the middle, because if you were to lean over something and touch it that happen to be live! 😁👍 Other than that keep up the good work! Carry on!
Interesting video. 4 year apprenticeship in Ireland from commercial side. Cable tray , trunking and conduit. Within a year you are doing that by yourself and is seen as not a important job. Its expected you can run that. I think domestic sparks getting better wiring knowledge at the start. I for sure lagged behind when I went to college. UK system seems funny. Do you guys go to college one day a week ? We do 7 or 8 months on site and the rest in college . Its all done in block slots. Fair play on shout out on PPE. Always wear your goggles at least
That tool from Doncaster is basically the equivalent of a pipe cutter for the plumber... Seems odd to me that it isn't standard kit for electricians! Haha
Nice to see the various chargers and I suppose that was the point ie to compare and contrast. But otherwise, the Easee Charger for 3 phase with built in load balancing would allow all 4 chargers to be put on a single circuit. Assuming not a massive demand. I hate to say it (not really 😀) but I do think you missed a trick by not routing the cables over and behind the cable tray before coming down the wall to the chargers. Would be so much neater.
Should I enter the contest to get some branded cable so many questions. do you ship the US? can I use metric? The colors won't lineup Will it be useless? How many feet no wait that would be meters?

I’m a bit confused? Do the data cables not have problems being run so close to power cables? I routed my two outdoor spec data cables in my workshop with the power cables and I was advised my CAT6 need to be > 800mm away from power cables??
Happy days, I don’t need to faff about now.
20:45 i'm using this Yokari (c) style knife ( German ) since my days at college ( somewhere in the 90's )
Up the creek without a paddle!
How do we win the cable? It’s not in the description yet. I think we should win for pointing this out! 🤣 (Maybe some custom ho7rn-f)
This will be announced later! Stay tuned!
17:30 Safety Sally here, your local health and safety watch officer. I would have to say most of the video safety glasses weren't being worn. In most factories at least here in the USA they require at least glasses when inside. Then if you are on man lifts or scissor lifts they require hard hats in case you run into things either driving or going up. Then I assume everyone doing electrical work has electrically safe footwear on as well? Canada is one of the worst requiring green triangle hydro (power company) approved boots for any electrical work. However I will overlook any metal jewelry (watches rings) being worn doing electrical work. I have seen some very nasty burns from people wearing rings hitting live conductors. And for goodness sake don't wear clothes with metal zippers running right down the middle, because if you were to lean over something and touch it that happen to be live! 😁👍 Other than that keep up the good work! Carry on!
Cracking video as always!
Cant wait for this one
Interesting video. 4 year apprenticeship in Ireland from commercial side. Cable tray , trunking and conduit. Within a year you are doing that by yourself and is seen as not a important job. Its expected you can run that. I think domestic sparks getting better wiring knowledge at the start. I for sure lagged behind when I went to college. UK system seems funny. Do you guys go to college one day a week ? We do 7 or 8 months on site and the rest in college . Its all done in block slots.
Fair play on shout out on PPE. Always wear your goggles at least
Ok
Cant believe its taken you this long to fit the best untethered charger on the market sync ev
PPE 😂😂😂, our auditors at work would go chicken oriental , full goggles and FFP3 dust masks please
Literally round the corner from me
That tool from Doncaster is basically the equivalent of a pipe cutter for the plumber... Seems odd to me that it isn't standard kit for electricians! Haha
Up the creek
Nice to see the various chargers and I suppose that was the point ie to compare and contrast. But otherwise, the Easee Charger for 3 phase with built in load balancing would allow all 4 chargers to be put on a single circuit. Assuming not a massive demand.
I hate to say it (not really 😀) but I do think you missed a trick by not routing the cables over and behind the cable tray before coming down the wall to the chargers. Would be so much neater.
Should I enter the contest to get some branded cable so many questions. do you ship the US? can I use metric? The colors won't lineup Will it be useless? How many feet no wait that would be meters?
YOUR BEST ASSET IS CORY!
(Help, Cory just randomly broke into my house and told me to write this).
What's the name of the SWA cable stripper you were using as it looks better than the Knipex one I currently have?
