I'm on vacation and don't have my code book handy. At minute 2:31 you indicate/imply that it is a violation that they don't have 240V GFCI protection on their temp panel. I'm curious about your interpretation of this. The panel is receiving 240V and has a two pole main disconnect breaker but the only circuits I see run are the two 120V GFCI protected circuits. If a 240V circuit had been run from the panel for higher voltage construction equipment, I would conclude it is that circuit which requires the GFCI protection. I look forward to your insight.
In my area, you’re allowed to fill the 7/8 hole ass tight as you want. They took away the de rating for nm cable. Also the bathroom outlet can be on with the lights in the bathroom as well. Just needs to be a dedicated circuit.
@kdubs3 yeah, I think the basics should certainly be taught before you start using one of those, but they're okay in moderation Using a driver with a clutch helps a lot
Yeah, I was thinking the screws in😊 the outside boxes weren’t too bad but if they’re not hitting any meat and just hit the siding that is bogus that will loosen up for sure
@sku32956 because it's not for a municipality and it's for an individual.( I know the guy that is building the house.) I think he's going to foam the walls, so this will likely be okay But it could potentially push the boxes out of the wall when he foams, l o l That's why I was not too thorough and critical during this inspection. As far as how many romex in each hole. Ect. But yeah, it's not done right
I'll be needing some guidance, Def researching electrician videos for a demolition I have coming up at a affordable health clinic in Palm Bay Florida, wish me luck 🙏
@MakeWithMike i've got a few videos on healthcare. If you're going back with healthcare, wiring it would definitely save a lot of people time.If you have any questions, let me know
@jay9308 they must provide 1 plug if the panel has the capability for 240 a plug must be provided so no one tries to make it Some companies are scheduled months in advance and are only there for 1 day to do one job, and they must have the power when they need it. So sometimes they take the cove off and try to make it. It's a safety hazard.
2/0 CU 175a at 75 degree Column because terminations are rated as such and it’s SE? It would be 135a if it was AL, lemme know if that’s even close to right. 310.15(B).
@@Apache-Helicopter-Life yeah that's correct. We have the eighty three percent rule in effect here as well.Because it's a residence. As far as the copper goes, I'll have to look at the aluminum. When I get a chance Eighty three percent of two hundred is. 166. So any wire capable of delivering over 166 is good to go.
All around, a lazy, sh*tty job! Missing lots of nail plates. Outside boxes should be stubs to later add cut-in boxes or put on nail on boxes at rough, Ideal twister wire nuts instead of junk wirenuts. Why so much 12-2, where 14-2 would be more than adequate? Box make up is very messy! Too many romex cables through holes in studs and Top plates! Should have Cable Stackers(not code of course, but good practice) above multi-gang boxes,IMO. Forgetting to remove main bonding jumper screws in sub panels(Take them with you folks and put them in your van with subs), for getting to install them in service panels! Bushing instead of proper SER connector! Strap missing on Liqiud-tite! Bushings instead of proper NM Connectors on top of panel! Missing Receptacle Boxes? Missing mud ring for U-Fer Ground connection. J-box in attic is accessible, just not readily accessable.(IMO). Homeowner or Builder might be a real tight-wad too! Might be unsupervised apprentice too! Neither are an excuse! Thanks, Russ, 29 years in Electrical Trade.

Jesus, what’s with all the outdoor outlets?
Lol I was thinking the same thing. Are they planning on putting up 16 miles of christmas lights?
@Devin-_- if it is my house, I'd probably do the same thing though. You never know. cheap to add now
As I understand it the 20amp GFCI bathroom receptacle can serve the entire bathroom (lights, fan) as long as it only serves that bathroom
@johnmichael642 you know now that you mention it, I might be wrong about that. Let me check thanks

Fire caulk / fire stop anywhere?
@gabequeiroga4471 no, the builder is going to do that himself
But you're right.It should be there before they close the wall
those automatic wire twist tools are all fun and games until you have to rewire something.
@kdubs3 yeah, I think the basics should certainly be taught before you start using one of those, but they're okay in moderation

Good thing the company i work at uses wagos for all make ups. Those 6 and 8 wire connection wagos are a time saver.
At 3:37 I use wago 221 levernuts. They are great for that many neutrals.
Why is it all 12 to Romex what about some 14/2 everyone's a 20 amp circuit
Agreed. If you can afford to have your entire house wired with #12, you should be able to afford a better electrician lol
@jay9308 that's a good point, if I was building my own house.Though, for the total cost, I would just use number twelve on every circuit myself

Seeing Cocina (kitchen) written on the NM speaks volumes on the caliber of “electricians” they have working there.
Would Love to see more Electrical Rough in inspections from you, Good and Bad ones.
How would you go about 240volt GFCI protection at the temp panel if they don't have any 240volt loads?

Nail plates
Damn
Seen better, but I’ve seen worse.
Electricians never bond boxes? Hater

It looks like a bang up job by the low bid. I can’t believe the way they butchered those outside boxes are just a box in general.
