JKPieGuy that rule has to do with buildings of combustible/no-combustible construction. You can use Loomex in buildings of combustible construction and BX is buildings of non-combustible construction. This building looks like it has a wood frame instead of steel stud. At least in Quebec that’s how it works. Not sure about BC
But that won't make a great video would it? Plus, last time i think brian said that he didn't mind. Probably because he was paid by the hour. Plus you could see Linus mucking around. 😅
@@Rick-jo8ot I'm guessing you're Dutch, as "to set himself for pole" isn't a known English saying - an equivalent would be "to see how Linus makes a fool of himself".
I watched 17min of wiring...no regrets. Brian does seem pretty laid back. Let's you learn on your own without being all mr. know it all/do it my way type of guy. If that makes sense.
@@deadgaming20 That's what I was thinking when I seen the boxes hooked up. Was taught it's good practice to make an "S" shaped curve leading into the box for two reasons. The first being to leave enough slack that the next guy doesn't have to pull cord through the wall when a plug torches the wire ends. The second being to stress test the wires since any wire that breaks would be unsuitable for use.
Why not he gets paid hourly, and I bet Linus can do it. In about 3x the amount of time, at which it's a win, somewhat win? As in Brian gets paid more and has a nice break/comedy show to watch, and Linus learns to not leave stuff on top of a ladder and then move it.
@@InsaneZealotry In the USA metal conduit (rigid or flexible) inside covered walls is only required in Commercial or Industrial wiring (which most times is run thru metal studs or joists where standard plastic/rubber jacketed wiring would get damaged), Residential wiring going thru wood studs or over head joists and is covered by wall board (Sheetrock or some other type of covering) does not. The only exception in residential wiring is if the wiring is run down the face of the wall and not covered, that has to be in conduit (rigid or flex) up to the height of 8'.
@@Mikey8567 But what if you have to replace a cable someday? You have to open up all of the panels? With a corrugated pipe (as someone said before) you can just attach the new cable at one side of the old one and pull from the other side and it will slide inside of the pipe, or maybe I missed something here
I love Brian. I'm also an electrician and we do our jobs exactly the same lol. No one carries hammers. It's not worth the weight when you have an electrical hammer (lineman pliers)
I carry a small Ball peen hammer as it's on our tool list as it comes in handy when I have to make a hole in a block wall to run emt through.. I am thinking if your into residential electrical as hammer would make life easier for the staples and putting boxes on wall.

As an electrical apprentice this is actually hilarious seeing Linus do wiring. He reacted the exact same way I did to using Pliers as a hammer the first time I saw my boss clip/staple lol.
As an electrician studying IT, it feels good to see linus on the other side of things, where usually he says things I dont get, now hes hearing a bunch of things that are as basic knowledge to me as need water to survive
I am a union electrician, I don't do residential but we still share a lot of tricks. Using a ladder as a wire spool holder with a stick of emt is very common for smaller spools. I am glad that the corded drill he gave Linus had some sort of clutch, some corded drills will not stop so easy. He could easily twist his arm around the drill and possibly break something.
I use stronger cordless drills than those he is using. Hilti is the brand. It didn't have a clutch. Got a smack in the jaw. Ah well. Personally I question why people still install their wires bare in houses in Canada or in general in certain countries. Majority of the early electrical fires in Sweden was due bare insulated wire in walls. Now days, the wires may melt and flame. But the fire is contained in the PVC piping... Well, we don't use PVC anymore since it is toxic when burnt. But we still call it PVC. As for the internet connection tool he was using. We stopped using those connectors. Because it requires a tool for an effective install.
@@Helveteshit A properly sized, and properly installed conductor isn't going to cause any issues. Electrical wiring standards like the NEC exist for very good reason. I don't know about wiring standards in Sweden, but in the US pre-1980s, a lot of homes used copper clad aluminum conductors, which were prone to cracking and breaking when bent around corners. A cracked or broken wire=intermittent contact=increased resistance=fire. Couple that with people cramming pennies into fuse boxes and it's no wonder so many old homes have burned down due to electrical fires.
No kidding man. The corded I use when my cordless just isn't strong enough will not just rip your ass off the ladder, it'll turn you into a human wrecking ball. Also I would have handed him a file for complaining it's dull, takes very little time and effort to sharpen a spade bit.
Aww yiss. As soon as I saw "Electrical wiring" I was like "Oshit, I wonder if they'll bring back the guy from the electric car video" and voila, there he is.
Would be much easier, if you *lifted the floor 20cm* with insulation gravel, installed cables, networking, audio, heating, pipes under the floor panels. Keeps the floor warm too.
except for the fact that an electricians hammer is an actual tool, linemans pliers are commonly referred to and used as a hammer by electricians, or channel locks, or a 4 square box, or ... well we'd be here all night. As an electrician I love these videos with Brian, keep'em coming
Ya know, you don't need to use the hammer head to hammer. Then again, we do not hammer our cables against studs where I live. We hammer the piping to the different boxes and then pull the wiring afterwards.
@@Helveteshit Indeed, and the benefits of using pipes is that you can easily change things later on. I really don't understand wiring practices like this that don't use pipes
I can explain the drills. First, they're bought as a set. You buy more than one at once. More importantly, impacts are your bread and butter. They're for removing and inserting screws. You'd be amazed how often you do that when you work on a house. It's a good idea to have two impact guns at any given time, because you and another person can work at the same time. Another reason is that there are different types of screws in a house. You can have an impact with a square bit and one with a phillips. You don't have to swap out bits all the time. As for drills, they're used to make holes. A cordless drill is very convenient and will work for most light jobs. Some tasks require a ton of drilling, though, and you will run through batteries and heat up your drill if you abuse your cordless for them. That's why you need a powerful corded drill. It's not over-compensating at all. Also, we all have dull paddle bits. It comes with the territory. Your new bit will be like that in a couple more holes. And, yes, everything is potentially a hammer. And, yes, we have all left things on top of ladders that inevitably fall on our heads. I actually kind of occasionally still do that. Bad habits are hard to break and all that.
OMG lmao this exactly! Corded drill wasn't actually all that powerful but only gets used once in a blue moon. Mainly just to not kill the batteries or burn out the brushes in the cordless drills haha.
@@dubious6718 No.... May be home owner grade like ryobi but my Makita lasted 6 years of regular use with more aggressive bits than those before it was stolen.
Any good cordless drills such as Makita or Milwaukee are all brushless now, really powerful paired and would chew through those timbers easily. Using an impact driver with a good spade bit would chew through those timbers much easier and faster and efficiently than that corded drill ( A 5 amp hr battery in an impact driver and shape spade bit will do 100's of holes before even comming close to flat) . and less chance of it grabbing and breaking linus's wrist and twisting him up in the cord Lol
@@gregalexander9343 Milwaukee's drills, corded and with battieres are soooo good. They can take a beating, drilling through hard, old wood and steel. Still, use a small Bosch on batteries for things like outlets, screwing, switch panels etc.
Wait WHAT!? You can't get Cat 6a in Canada!? As an electrician in Denmark I can order it from 5 different suppliers and get it delivered tomorrow morning 6 AM at the latest... And each of the suppliers have 6a from 3-6 different manufacturers...
So as an electrician the only complaint I have about this video that is driving me nuts is his lack of a loop in the wall for the plugs. It is actually code to leave a loop in the wall with NMD-90 for possible future fixes or changes. For those of you who have access to the 2015 CEC (I have not purchased the 2018 yet but I am sure it is in there) it is 12-510-4. "Notwithstanding item (1)(a), where cable is run to a switch or receptacle specifically approved with an integral enclosure incorporating an integral cable clamp, the cable shall be supported by straps, cable ties of a type specifically approved for the purpose, or other devices located within 300 mm of the switch or receptacle wall opening, and there shall be at least a 300 mm loop of unbroken cable or 150 mm of a cable end available on the interior side of the finished wall to permit replacement."
Even if its not specified in code, its just good practice. Drives me nuts when replacing something and there is zero slack in the line the way they did this install.
@@esthergennn Canada is more extensive. Nothing like regulations in Canada. We take everyone else's idea of good enough, and make it look insufficient.
The 6 inch loop is so that when you service the receptacle or device wiring, you have wire you can pull through into the box if you have to clip ends to avoid having fractured wire. You can't leave it in the box due to box fill requirements which keep the receptacle or device from pressing into the wire and creating short risks and electrical hazards like tight wire bends which cause resistance and heat. tl;dr: it's to stop fire and shock hazards.
Brian needs to be your in house electrician! He fits in so well, just in a different way. Like a "he's very competent and doesn't wear socks and sandals.. or even sandals at all."
Mike Dawson That’s the internet mindset these days though. See someone you like, hire them! See someone struggling a bit, make a GoFundMe and throw money at them! See someone you don’t like, shame them!
I don't know about sponsor schedules (that they paid for this sponsored prior to the desktop buying review videos) but if anything I think it's kinda cool of origin. While linus thrashed origin during that video series he didn't swear off origin and say that they ship a deceptive product and wouldn't take sponsorships from them. This is origin getting thrashed by a channel but regardless of that not lashing out and stop sponsoring any LTT content for giving a bad review and still giving sponsorships in spite of that bad review. It's up to linus on what sponsors he takes but at least it seems like the industry isn't blacklisting them over these reviews that I found really helpful (I build my own PCs but I wouldn't order a prebuilt from origin for anyone I know after those videos)
@@Hoch134 Its against code as it effects the fire and smoke resistance of plenum cable. Its against best practice because many cable manufacturers believe the paint can degrade the porous outer jackets of the cable and negatively impact performance. Generally cables that fail certification due to paint won't have their warranty honored. I also wouldn't hammer staples into twisted pair cables. I prefer using cable straps like what Arlington sells for data stuff.
Also Linus I would suggest labeling both ends of each cable you run, about 3-4 times (about a foot apart from each label, starting about 2 inches from the end) on each end, to where it's supposed to go. When we run cable we label them so we know where they go when we get them to the patch panel(s) and the switches.
I have lived in Canada for 25 of my 27 years on earth and only learned this today. I don't think I have ever heard anyone refer to ground as a bond. At least not that I have noticed. I'm not an electrician by trade but know a few coast to coast and they have always said grounded whether they know otherwise or not.
@@JohnyKnox Me neither. Always heard ground. We even say ground in Quebec even when speaking French (French-glish) even though it would be terre (earth) if said in French.
Technically a "ground conductor" is the main conductor that connects an electrical system to ground. The technical name for every other type of "ground wire" is "bonding conductor," because it is bonding whatever piece of electrical equipment to that main ground conductor. This is the same in the US and Canada, you'll just never hear "bonding" used frequently outside technical specifications or electrical codes, they're usually casually referred to as "ground wires."
Amusing video, but it really shows that Linus is probably a great boss: he's willing to actually work on the project and learn instead of just saying what needs to get done... A+ leadership skills :D
@@3literv6 Well thats fine too. Now I know why I was choosing between a machinist and an electrician. Oh the shocking tales of the naughty sant....I mean sanity.
When I see the eletrical installation you do in Canada and USA, Then compare it to how we do it here in Sweden. I'm Fascinated how yours work. It feels like it's gonna catch fire or something in your walls.
As an electrician in the US we have the National Electrical Code to follow in addition to individual state minimum requirements. Local code trumps the minimums set by the NEC. The NEC is written by the NFPA here in America. In a typical residential environment (Or wood stud environment) we use ROMEX which I assume is similar to LUMEX. Romex is sheathed on the outside in addition to insulation for the copper. As long as the person installing the wire knows what they are doing (The wire doesnt suffer from damage, and the conductors are properly grounded and wired to a device) there is a very large chance everything will be safe. However failures can occur within the device or if a home owner say fucks with the system normally installed. In a commercial environment which is where a majority of my work comes into play, we use a different type of wire in most cases and a different type of stud. Metal studs with MC wire. MC (Metal Clad) is our normal colored insulated conductors protected by a metal sheathing. This generally provides more protection than romex and can take more of a beating (It takes more than a razor knife to fuck up MC). A big difference from the two here is fire protection IS EVERYTHING IN MOST COMMERCIAL WORK. Drywall, insulation, and even the boxes we mount need to protect against fires. Usually if you are an apprentice coming into the trade here you are given a big fucking bucket of fire stop and sent around the building to fire stop holes. We also have fire stop patches for electrical boxes to prevent air from one room feeding another room that has a fire. As long as its a competent licensed journeyman doing the work in America, it wont go up in flames. And if it does this is why companies pay for insurance.
In Southern California (probably throughout the US due to UBC/ICC), commercial structures would require conduit for the electrical, either rigid or flexible with the wiring already contained. Some cities also require conduit for low voltage wiring. What they are doing here would be OK for residential but not commercial, at least around here.
@@lger2010 It sounds like you have no idea about how electricity works, so I recommend that you read up on it before you you comment next time. Because the comment you just posted made no sense at all.
Sweden over here :p why dont you use flexible tubing ? Over here you need to and if anything ever happens or you remember that you did something wrong after the drywall is upp you can just drag the old cable out and at the same time a new one. We do this both for networking cables and power, but in separate tubes :)
yes, this is the way to do it. it might be someone else replacing the cables decades later, but they will thank you for not stapling the cables in place.
This is sometimes done in the USA, especially for networking cables (or other cables that might need "upgraded" someday). It is done a lot more often in commercial or industrial settings also. Most residential wiring and some small commercial are done without conduit. Residential power is almost exclusively done without conduit in my experience.
really fun to watch. I'm a AV install technician in The Netherlands. so much fun to see how Linus is struggling with the wire's, the ladder and the drills
One of these days I want to see Linus forced to use a hardhat and steel toed boots when he is dealing with something like this. You can even add the part where Linus cries as he has to take off his sandals.
11:40 In Europe we have walls made of bricks, and electrical boxes are made out of plastic. For earth we have a wire, the green and yellow one, and it's connected to all kind of ports, plugs...
Norway. Most houses built in Northern Europe is wood. And light walls in apartments usually have metal studs. Eastern Europe is big on wood as well, they prefab a lot of wood houses and ship them through out Europe.
I also use electrical equipment produced for all over Europe, and none switches and such has required earth to be connected. All earth ends will just be connected with an wago or similar in the switch box, etc.
Anyone notice that after the secret shopper thing with all of the top pre built computers Linus has been doing alot of ads for Origin? Lmao they must have liked the video.

The second being to stress test the wires since any wire that breaks would be unsuitable for use.

As a european one, this looks horrible, no corrugated pipes for the cables inside the wall?
Electric codes are different in every country. Maybe it isn't required in Canada?
@@InsaneZealotry In the USA metal conduit (rigid or flexible) inside covered walls is only required in Commercial or Industrial wiring (which most times is run thru metal studs or joists where standard plastic/rubber jacketed wiring would get damaged), Residential wiring going thru wood studs or over head joists and is covered by wall board (Sheetrock or some other type of covering) does not. The only exception in residential wiring is if the wiring is run down the face of the wall and not covered, that has to be in conduit (rigid or flex) up to the height of 8'.
@@Mikey8567 But what if you have to replace a cable someday? You have to open up all of the panels?

I love Brian. I'm also an electrician and we do our jobs exactly the same lol. No one carries hammers. It's not worth the weight when you have an electrical hammer (lineman pliers)
My hammer is not something I use frequently. Sometimes I need one for a few things like stakes or bang on caddys but otherwise, stays in my tool bag.
Ok so Im not the only 1. Pliers or even the butt of a screw driver gets the job done most the time.
It's very interesting to compare how you guys over there are working with how I'm working in germany. A lot of differences.
Yes, actually needing a hammer is not very common haha, and a lot of the time the pliers work better given limited space.
I carry a small Ball peen hammer as it's on our tool list as it comes in handy when I have to make a hole in a block wall to run emt through.. I am thinking if your into residential electrical as hammer would make life easier for the staples and putting boxes on wall.

As an electrician studying IT, it feels good to see linus on the other side of things, where usually he says things I dont get, now hes hearing a bunch of things that are as basic knowledge to me as need water to survive
I am a union electrician, I don't do residential but we still share a lot of tricks. Using a ladder as a wire spool holder with a stick of emt is very common for smaller spools. I am glad that the corded drill he gave Linus had some sort of clutch, some corded drills will not stop so easy. He could easily twist his arm around the drill and possibly break something.
I use stronger cordless drills than those he is using. Hilti is the brand. It didn't have a clutch. Got a smack in the jaw. Ah well.
Personally I question why people still install their wires bare in houses in Canada or in general in certain countries. Majority of the early electrical fires in Sweden was due bare insulated wire in walls. Now days, the wires may melt and flame. But the fire is contained in the PVC piping... Well, we don't use PVC anymore since it is toxic when burnt. But we still call it PVC.
As for the internet connection tool he was using. We stopped using those connectors. Because it requires a tool for an effective install.
Those drill bits are arm breakers and they should have used the "normal" kind
@@Helveteshit America is still old school, just look at their trucks.. they look awesome, but its so old, like from the 60s
@@Helveteshit A properly sized, and properly installed conductor isn't going to cause any issues. Electrical wiring standards like the NEC exist for very good reason. I don't know about wiring standards in Sweden, but in the US pre-1980s, a lot of homes used copper clad aluminum conductors, which were prone to cracking and breaking when bent around corners. A cracked or broken wire=intermittent contact=increased resistance=fire. Couple that with people cramming pennies into fuse boxes and it's no wonder so many old homes have burned down due to electrical fires.
No kidding man. The corded I use when my cordless just isn't strong enough will not just rip your ass off the ladder, it'll turn you into a human wrecking ball. Also I would have handed him a file for complaining it's dull, takes very little time and effort to sharpen a spade bit.

What about the carbo stucko lab?.
except for the fact that an electricians hammer is an actual tool, linemans pliers are commonly referred to and used as a hammer by electricians, or channel locks, or a 4 square box, or ... well we'd be here all night. As an electrician I love these videos with Brian, keep'em coming
Ya know, you don't need to use the hammer head to hammer. Then again, we do not hammer our cables against studs where I live. We hammer the piping to the different boxes and then pull the wiring afterwards.
@@Helveteshit Indeed, and the benefits of using pipes is that you can easily change things later on. I really don't understand wiring practices like this that don't use pipes
linemams are the best hammer
I can explain the drills. First, they're bought as a set. You buy more than one at once. More importantly, impacts are your bread and butter. They're for removing and inserting screws. You'd be amazed how often you do that when you work on a house. It's a good idea to have two impact guns at any given time, because you and another person can work at the same time. Another reason is that there are different types of screws in a house. You can have an impact with a square bit and one with a phillips. You don't have to swap out bits all the time. As for drills, they're used to make holes. A cordless drill is very convenient and will work for most light jobs. Some tasks require a ton of drilling, though, and you will run through batteries and heat up your drill if you abuse your cordless for them. That's why you need a powerful corded drill. It's not over-compensating at all. Also, we all have dull paddle bits. It comes with the territory. Your new bit will be like that in a couple more holes. And, yes, everything is potentially a hammer. And, yes, we have all left things on top of ladders that inevitably fall on our heads. I actually kind of occasionally still do that. Bad habits are hard to break and all that.
OMG lmao this exactly! Corded drill wasn't actually all that powerful but only gets used once in a blue moon. Mainly just to not kill the batteries or burn out the brushes in the cordless drills haha.
@@lttbriantheelectrician Those drill bits will kill any drill
@@dubious6718 No.... May be home owner grade like ryobi but my Makita lasted 6 years of regular use with more aggressive bits than those before it was stolen.
Any good cordless drills such as Makita or Milwaukee are all brushless now, really powerful paired and would chew through those timbers easily. Using an impact driver with a good spade bit would chew through those timbers much easier and faster and efficiently than that corded drill ( A 5 amp hr battery in an impact driver and shape spade bit will do 100's of holes before even comming close to flat) . and less chance of it grabbing and breaking linus's wrist and twisting him up in the cord Lol
@@gregalexander9343 Milwaukee's drills, corded and with battieres are soooo good. They can take a beating, drilling through hard, old wood and steel. Still, use a small Bosch on batteries for things like outlets, screwing, switch panels etc.

It's Canada , You heard him they have lorts of earth....
So as an electrician the only complaint I have about this video that is driving me nuts is his lack of a loop in the wall for the plugs. It is actually code to leave a loop in the wall with NMD-90 for possible future fixes or changes.
For those of you who have access to the 2015 CEC (I have not purchased the 2018 yet but I am sure it is in there) it is 12-510-4.
"Notwithstanding item (1)(a), where cable is run to a switch or receptacle specifically approved with an integral enclosure incorporating an integral cable clamp, the cable shall be supported by straps, cable ties of a type specifically approved for the purpose, or other devices located within 300 mm of the switch or receptacle wall opening, and there shall be at least a 300 mm loop of unbroken cable or 150 mm of a cable end available on the interior side of the finished wall to permit replacement."
I honestly thought that Canada used the NEC
Even if its not specified in code, its just good practice. Drives me nuts when replacing something and there is zero slack in the line the way they did this install.
Dang the more you know..
@@esthergennn Canada is more extensive. Nothing like regulations in Canada. We take everyone else's idea of good enough, and make it look insufficient.
The 6 inch loop is so that when you service the receptacle or device wiring, you have wire you can pull through into the box if you have to clip ends to avoid having fractured wire. You can't leave it in the box due to box fill requirements which keep the receptacle or device from pressing into the wire and creating short risks and electrical hazards like tight wire bends which cause resistance and heat.
tl;dr: it's to stop fire and shock hazards.
FYI .... Every tool becomes a hammer...one day... sooner or later.
Isn't he allready ? ^^
Facts
even morty
@@datavalisofficial8730 you think so?
@@NicholasJoseyTheDiamondBlock I think Linus is more of a Monkey Wrench
You know, the videos where linus is learning from a professional are probably my most favorite type. It's funny, and educational.
Linus - "I Mounted A Box" 5:13 and it seems Brian is informing the media :D
Brian needs to be your in house electrician! He fits in so well, just in a different way. Like a "he's very competent and doesn't wear socks and sandals.. or even sandals at all."
*_Come on Linus... Hire Brian Already!!!_*
YES!
I'd be surprised if they need an electrician *that* often.
Electricians can make 60-100k a year easily. Linus probably can't match that
they wouldn't have a full-time need for an electrician, it's not like they're expanding to new buildings weekly
Mike Dawson That’s the internet mindset these days though. See someone you like, hire them! See someone struggling a bit, make a GoFundMe and throw money at them! See someone you don’t like, shame them!
Things I have learned, Linus does not know how to use a drill.
Linus Sex Tips at it again "He got the tools, but not stamina" 😂
Wait, isn't the Origin sponsor the same Origin that got trashed on in the Linum serie? (with all respect due of course)
That's what I was thinking too.
Link?
@@ErianVillarreal It's the PC secret shopper series on the LTT channel.
@@ErianVillarreal th-cam.com/video/VRFEr3rAizY/w-d-xo.html
I don't know about sponsor schedules (that they paid for this sponsored prior to the desktop buying review videos) but if anything I think it's kinda cool of origin. While linus thrashed origin during that video series he didn't swear off origin and say that they ship a deceptive product and wouldn't take sponsorships from them. This is origin getting thrashed by a channel but regardless of that not lashing out and stop sponsoring any LTT content for giving a bad review and still giving sponsorships in spite of that bad review. It's up to linus on what sponsors he takes but at least it seems like the industry isn't blacklisting them over these reviews that I found really helpful (I build my own PCs but I wouldn't order a prebuilt from origin for anyone I know after those videos)
Anyone else notice how Linus’ protection goggles progressively increase in size and protection? While Bryan has nothing protecting his face...
Me and he was wearing socks and sandals the whole time
"You're an apprentice, your not in the military." Immediately goes to parade rest from a salute.
Wearing masks while standing on X's? Linus was truly ahead of his time.
@ 10:14 that instant tradesman reaction to hearing something fall on someones head, Brian is there within seconds to laugh at Linus.
We all learned the hard way at some point. I've been reminded a couple of times, just glad I was wearing my hardhat
Brian terminates Cat 6A properly. Be like Brian.
He did do it right. Then he let them paint the cable in the ceiling. 🤦♂️
@@asooxbmw5616 very true 🤦♂️
@@asooxbmw5616 For a non electrician... what is wrong with painting the cable?
@@Hoch134 Its against code as it effects the fire and smoke resistance of plenum cable. Its against best practice because many cable manufacturers believe the paint can degrade the porous outer jackets of the cable and negatively impact performance. Generally cables that fail certification due to paint won't have their warranty honored. I also wouldn't hammer staples into twisted pair cables. I prefer using cable straps like what Arlington sells for data stuff.
Im a simple man, I see Brian I click.
You didn't see Brian.
It’s never disappointing when white collar meets blue collar workers
down with the bourgeoisie, eh komrade?
There're only two blue collar workers here.
Also Linus I would suggest labeling both ends of each cable you run, about 3-4 times (about a foot apart from each label, starting about 2 inches from the end) on each end, to where it's supposed to go. When we run cable we label them so we know where they go when we get them to the patch panel(s) and the switches.
Canada: Bonded
Europe: Earthed
America: Grounded
ok
I have lived in Canada for 25 of my 27 years on earth and only learned this today. I don't think I have ever heard anyone refer to ground as a bond. At least not that I have noticed. I'm not an electrician by trade but know a few coast to coast and they have always said grounded whether they know otherwise or not.
@@JohnyKnox Me neither. Always heard ground. We even say ground in Quebec even when speaking French (French-glish) even though it would be terre (earth) if said in French.
Australia: Main Earth Neutral Link
Technically a "ground conductor" is the main conductor that connects an electrical system to ground. The technical name for every other type of "ground wire" is "bonding conductor," because it is bonding whatever piece of electrical equipment to that main ground conductor. This is the same in the US and Canada, you'll just never hear "bonding" used frequently outside technical specifications or electrical codes, they're usually casually referred to as "ground wires."
Here in Québec we call it grounded even if we speak french. Sometimes we will say ''Mise a la terre''.
I want more Brian in future videos-no! I DEMAND more Brian in future videos!
Amusing video, but it really shows that Linus is probably a great boss: he's willing to actually work on the project and learn instead of just saying what needs to get done... A+ leadership skills :D
Watching Linus doing skilled trades is truly an absolute pleasure.
What a time to be alive.
Electricians are the coolest. They work with strippers.
*shocking*
But machinists get lathe.
@@3literv6 Well thats fine too. Now I know why I was choosing between a machinist and an electrician. Oh the shocking tales of the naughty sant....I mean sanity.
They also work with horse cocks. Still think they're the coolest?
@@bardacuda82 Well that depends on your.......tastes
This place is gonna be L(i)T(T)!
it will also be lit if Linus messed up something on the electrical installation
RedYoshikira just like Dubai
Being a sparky as well this is so funny to watch. Just Like having an apprentice.
Little does Linus know, *EVERYTHING IS A HAMMER*
Except for the pocket knife. According to the Verge that's a screwdriver.
When I see the eletrical installation you do in Canada and USA, Then compare it to how we do it here in Sweden. I'm Fascinated how yours work. It feels like it's gonna catch fire or something in your walls.
The European standard is set way higher, where safety > cost of building
Power outlets here are 110v whereas yours are 230v, so since there's less electricity going through the wire it's less of a concern.
As an electrician in the US we have the National Electrical Code to follow in addition to individual state minimum requirements. Local code trumps the minimums set by the NEC. The NEC is written by the NFPA here in America. In a typical residential environment (Or wood stud environment) we use ROMEX which I assume is similar to LUMEX. Romex is sheathed on the outside in addition to insulation for the copper. As long as the person installing the wire knows what they are doing (The wire doesnt suffer from damage, and the conductors are properly grounded and wired to a device) there is a very large chance everything will be safe. However failures can occur within the device or if a home owner say fucks with the system normally installed. In a commercial environment which is where a majority of my work comes into play, we use a different type of wire in most cases and a different type of stud. Metal studs with MC wire. MC (Metal Clad) is our normal colored insulated conductors protected by a metal sheathing. This generally provides more protection than romex and can take more of a beating (It takes more than a razor knife to fuck up MC). A big difference from the two here is fire protection IS EVERYTHING IN MOST COMMERCIAL WORK. Drywall, insulation, and even the boxes we mount need to protect against fires. Usually if you are an apprentice coming into the trade here you are given a big fucking bucket of fire stop and sent around the building to fire stop holes. We also have fire stop patches for electrical boxes to prevent air from one room feeding another room that has a fire. As long as its a competent licensed journeyman doing the work in America, it wont go up in flames. And if it does this is why companies pay for insurance.
In Southern California (probably throughout the US due to UBC/ICC), commercial structures would require conduit for the electrical, either rigid or flexible with the wiring already contained. Some cities also require conduit for low voltage wiring. What they are doing here would be OK for residential but not commercial, at least around here.
@@lger2010 It sounds like you have no idea about how electricity works, so I recommend that you read up on it before you you comment next time.
Because the comment you just posted made no sense at all.
The "innovative spool holder" is something every electrician does lol
my favourite is the half inch conduit bender supported by 2 category cable boxes
I worked a lot in attics, my favourite was a piece of wood, two screws and two vertical joists
Can confirm.
Linus working with power tools makes me nervous.
Merry Christmas to all the LTT team.
linus and brian remind me of a dad trying to teach his nerdy son how to do manual labor.
Sweden over here :p why dont you use flexible tubing ? Over here you need to and if anything ever happens or you remember that you did something wrong after the drywall is upp you can just drag the old cable out and at the same time a new one. We do this both for networking cables and power, but in separate tubes :)
yes, this is the way to do it. it might be someone else replacing the cables decades later, but they will thank you for not stapling the cables in place.
Enig 👍
Totally agree tubing/conduit is much better for networking cable runs
This is sometimes done in the USA, especially for networking cables (or other cables that might need "upgraded" someday). It is done a lot more often in commercial or industrial settings also. Most residential wiring and some small commercial are done without conduit. Residential power is almost exclusively done without conduit in my experience.
Netherlands over here. Its required here as well. No wiring without tubing. Fire department would reject this on the spot.
SPONSORED BY ORIGIN PC? The one with the system that cant even hit 60fps in Secret shopper?
The Gaming Center, where games are epicness
kremit the frog hey bro
Representing pryo. This is it chief
Great to see some PPE but still works in sandals. Those socks must be steel toe
Just yesterday I thought, "hey, what about part 2 of that LTT LAN gaming project?" And today, bam!
really fun to watch. I'm a AV install technician in The Netherlands. so much fun to see how Linus is struggling with the wire's, the ladder and the drills
*YOU NEED TO HIRE BRIAN HE IS AWESOME!*
Brian likely gets paid much better than Linus would pay him unfortunately
Oh no who let Linus use the drill.
Allawa Phantom Brian did
And a hammer... just asking for mayhem and chaos.
I like Brian, you should adopt him
i half expected him to say "what do i need a hammer for? im an electrician!"
One of these days I want to see Linus forced to use a hardhat and steel toed boots when he is dealing with something like this. You can even add the part where Linus cries as he has to take off his sandals.
11:40 In Europe we have walls made of bricks, and electrical boxes are made out of plastic. For earth we have a wire, the green and yellow one, and it's connected to all kind of ports, plugs...
No, we have walls made of tree studs and metal as well.
And earth is usually not connected to switches and similar.
@@Faddnn where are you from?
Norway. Most houses built in Northern Europe is wood. And light walls in apartments usually have metal studs. Eastern Europe is big on wood as well, they prefab a lot of wood houses and ship them through out Europe.
I also use electrical equipment produced for all over Europe, and none switches and such has required earth to be connected. All earth ends will just be connected with an wago or similar in the switch box, etc.
@@Faddnn in center and south europe most houses are made of bricks, sometimes you find some drywalls inside
LINUS GETTING WIRES READY FOR 2019
Who else is here from DIY AC part 2?
As an Electricians apprentice myself, this video was hilarious.
Waiting for the next episode of secret shopper after seeing that sponsor message :D
Anyone notice that after the secret shopper thing with all of the top pre built computers Linus has been doing alot of ads for Origin? Lmao they must have liked the video.
I think after their secret shopper series they may hook up with Maingear lol
I was thinking of the same thing. damn they caught Origin by their sacks, huh.
"now that we've stapled all the way up. we need to staple all the way across" *Linus drops pliers out of sadness* 😂😂
