- A soldering tool is often used to join electrical wires. But you may not always have a soldering machine, so in this video we show you how to join electrical wires without a soldering iron. If you're dealing with electrical wiring and need to splice electrical wires, Electricians Don't Want You To Know! Be sure to watch this video called Join Electrical Cables Solderless.

Как моряк, скажу, что узелки надежные. А как электрик, скажу строго: так ни в коем случае нельзя делать. При соединении провода важна площадь соприкосновения, а не крепость узелка.
Сто процентов правы.При просмотре видео такое ощущение что рыбак решил стать электриком.

Being a Master Electrician and 44 years of Doing electrical installation…. NEVER NEVER NEVER do this. We rip the wire out and replace it. Splices are made with approved connectors rated for heat. Heat causes fires 🔥
Yep tight clean wires keeps the path clear.
This is why they are third world countries...
So... what are other methods do you prefer instead of these methods?
I'm curious how electricians connect the wires.
Horrible and dangerous!
@@yoonpark8311 wire nuts can be purchased in any hardware store. The packages on nuts always have a list of wire size and how many of those wires each wire not can safely handle. Always remember: heat is a factor for safety. Wires heat up based on how much that circuit is being used for. Example: 10 table lamps on 1 circuit at 13 watts (LED) is 130 watts. A 15 amp circuit breaker is 1800 watts. Very safe. 1 floor standing heater is 1500 watts at full use. That should help.
I one hundred percent agree with Dave Pitso. I also am a master electrician and in my 40 years of experience, would never make in-line splices in wire. All splices would be made in accessible boxes, with code recognized splicing methods.
I agree with This Guy. They definitely break code. I’m an industrial maintenance technician. And everywhere I’ve worked would fire you in a heartbeat for making connections like this!
Being an electrician myself I would never use these methods. For one they break code. There is bending radiuses for wire and these knots exceed those radiuses. Only exception would be curling the wire to install it under a terminal such as a receptacle. Only approved methods can be used by electricians or we become liable. Two, the knots void the UL listing, so if an electrical fire is caused by this and the insurance company discovers this method you can say good bye for insurance covering any damages.
Yeah, I don’t think he gives a crap about your society’s codes and doesn’t need to have an insurance company micro managing his actions. Damn the man and his plots to control the common man. Go on home boy!
I’ve been in school for electrician for some several months now.
This seems very NOT what they would teach and allow. Lol
As far as code goes, yeah no.
Consider your project or whatever it is shut down.
You could nick the wire, causing the rating of the wire to go down, which could cause the load of your device to not work properly.
Terrible idea in my book. lol
Wouldn't the first knot create a dead short?
@@phoenixfireclusterbomb tell it to the judge when you burn down a house and get charged. None of these tricks would pass code. They may be cool for some speaker wires or whatever, but no professional would ever use them on a job.

There's a reason electricians don't want you to do these. I expect firemen don't want you doing it either.
I was attending an NFPA Electrical seminar and the instructor started by showing a small building that caught fire and burned down, his complaint was that the fire department could not determine the origin of the fire as the building was not wired. This type of connections are not made by knowledgeable Electricians and most likely would contribute to the fire of the building that was not wired.
I guess you're insurance agent don't want you to know these as well. Great YT did away with counting that tumbs down..
You shouldn't do anything.

Well the comments were in the end far more educational the video. I never knew becus I'm not an electrician. But sure glad I read the constructive comments , which is an SOP for me when watching something I really am a novive at. Though wire nuts have been my preferred method for what I have done. Thank you folks for the help.
I usually use an insulated crimp connector for the ends of the two wires. Crimping is important because it (a) ensures that both wires are good and tight, and (2) increases the area of contact so as to reduce heat generated. Twisting wires are not a good idea if the current is high, especially in household power devices.

I’m a qualified electrician and have been for 24 years and I have not and would not join electrical cables together like this, I would also recommend anyone watching this not to use this method either, you can buy connectors of various different types that are much better much easier and far more electrically sound than any of the methods shown.
Hi, you said: Better electrically than knots.
What would be the basis? mechanical?
because the electricity circulates the same as if the connectors were there.

Bab Boon actually I have made several subsea splices in umbilicals for hyperbaric welding application. The tide and currents would induce micro movements in the cable and joint . The most efficient way was indeed to splice using a reef knot in the first example - we had zero cable breaks compared to crimping and soldering .just saying like !
@@dennispickard7743 That's genuinely interesting.

I’ve been a master electrician for 27 years. And can say, I don’t know why I wouldn’t want you to know this? Just don’t expect it to be cheap to fix it when you call one of us because you burned your house down by doing it incorrectly.
Even by doing it correctly the contact area in such a knot isn't very large, so pumping a lot of current through could heat up the wire
Electricians very, very rarely solder wires. There are many safe, sound and UL approved systems designed to do everything you covered here. Soldering is generally used where space is very restricted and the heat used wouldn't cause other problems such as melting insulation. This is usually the case in electronic equipment.
One more thing: The stresses you are creating with these knots can actually _weaken_ the conductors.
Leave electricity to the trained and qualified.
well, honestly as an electronic technician, i always joke i weld like an electrician solders...the bigger the blob the better the job! i really cant think of very many if any reasons an electrician needs to solder anything. and i dont suggest electricians work on electronic boards, (see above joke based on truth lol)
Yeah, and I will defenitely NOT solder in a tight space..

Not being an eletrician, i can only say: never connect or mix blue wires with brown ones, unless you really really know what you are doing.😀
And connecting wires that way also is dangerous generally. At least EU/Indian outlets aren‘t polarized.
Pésimo electricista
Yes blue and brown are a bad idea, European negative and positive colour code
Ok sure but thats nothing to do with why this is dangerous. This guy is just trolling us and trying to get people to start fires.
@@crabbyr6929 Actually, blue neutral and brown live. There is no defined polarity in AC, the brown live wire keeps switching form positive to negative with respect to the blue neutral, 50 times per second here in Europe (50 Hz). However, as the neutral wire is hooked to earth ground, it's not as dangerous to touch as the live wire. Would be nice if it were possible to hook them both to earth ground, and still draw power from the grid.
I am not electrician, just electricians son. But if I ever treated wires in this manner, my dad would take them and whip the hell out of me with them.
To this day I get nervous when I see normal people rolling up their extension cords, brings back memories...
Esos amarres están buenos, aunque la mayoría no son funcionales para instalaciones eléctricas y los menos se complicaría bastante el utilizarlos.
These connections would probably be OK for some low-voltage applications (hobby electronics, etc), but *THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR HOUSEHOLD AC WIRES.* The reason "electricians don't want you to know this" is because *it could actually burn your house down* if you do it. The shown connections do not comply with electrical codes the US, or likely in most other countries, and for good reason. There is no way to guarantee that they are making enough contact to carry the sorts of current that is often required, and if the connection is not good enough they can get hot enough to actually cause fires, or possibly even produce arcing, etc. Even if the connection starts out OK, it can also wiggle looser over time (the shrink tubing alone is not enough to guarantee it will stay tight), causing dangerous conditions to develop later.
There are actually already many much better (and approved) methods for connecting wires without soldering them, such as wire nuts, Wago connectors, crimp-on connectors, etc. Please use those instead. This is just not the right way to do this.
I will say that in Russia it is strictly prohibited. For such a connection, any master, if there is a check on him, will get very hard on the head.
@@andyxox4168 i hate wire nuts. i will always use crimp connectors, if i need to connect more than two wires i will get a terminal board if i can. vary rarely would i even consider wire nuts.
No, there is absolutely zero reason to use any of these methods regardless of the voltage. Either these will melt, or you'll get a bad signal.
I wouldn't advise it on low voltage unless it an emergency and you be watching it. I was doing it to 24v system it destroyed it very expensive mistake and it could of burnt my boat down and being homeless again is not on my list of things to do
@@andyxox4168 You appear to be using IEC definitions, but that is actually not how most people use the terms in my experience. Typically, either 24V or 48V is considered the upper end of "low voltage" electronics in most circles (maybe not counting power grid engineers), and is the more common definition that alan clearly intended (and was intended in my original comment as well). (Even according to other standards, such as the US NEC, "low distribution system voltage" is defined as 0-49V, etc.)
And to be clear, I really *was not recommending this for lower voltage use either,* I was just saying that it probably wouldn't create an actually _dangerous_ condition if used in most hobbyist sorts of applications, but that still doesn't mean it's a good way to do things, or that it couldn't cause other sorts of problems in those cases too. (There are also potentially a few low-voltage but high-current applications where this could actually be dangerous as well, so it really depends on the application, and I agree that it should probably just be avoided in general anyway.)
As an Electrical Engineer and past Electrician, I'll say every one of these splices is bad, even for low voltage. Wire splices can be made more easily and better than any of these and the right methods are easily found online.
Did you feel like you needed to announce that you are an "electrical engineer" to qualify your comment with regards to wire splices? That's about as imbecilic as announcing you are a master chef prior to commenting about the proper way to boil a hot dog.
@@alphaforce6998 So you would rather hear about this from a landscaper or doctor? His couched his statement as coming from someone who is a professional in this field. A perfectly reasonable thing to do when commenting about your professional area of expertise. If you were a professional at anything, you would understand. You can go back to making hot dogs now, since that seems to be your point of reference.
@@alphaforce6998 Nope. Most engineers shouldn’t be allowed near tools and couldn’t make a proper splice. I was an electrician before an EE. I critiqued something technically as someone with technical knowledge.

@@NobodySpecial512 There are plenty of incompetent "professionals" so no, I don't see any value in announcing this other than to stroke your own ego.

@@kraziecatclady That's right the naval ratings Aviation Electrician Mate and Electrician Mate.
Hi, I had 31 years of experience in electrical engineering. Electrical connections in most cases do not require soldering. The wire amp should be higher than the consumer amp. The solder fills the gaps between the wires and the wire is connected properly. In a soldered joint, the wire may heat up, but the wire will not heat up from the soldered joint and electricity will pass completely. In addition, the solder is a waterproof insulation and prevents blackening and sulfation of the wire.
Nice trick!
As yes.

Being an Electronic Engineer let me explain why this is a bad idea and what soldering (and crimping) is for.
Solder decreases the resistivity that is introduced by joining two pieces of wire together. So why does it matter about increased resistivity?
Aside from meaning that increased resistivity will cost you money from the lost energy far in excess of the money saved by not using solder, it introduces a hidden weakness in the wiring that the knots won't overcome which over time will get progressively worse.
That area will act as a fuse as sparking and burning reduces the thickness of the actual connecting points of the joint to a point that's less than the rating of the fuse in the fuse box which would usually protect your wiring.
So even if it doesn't spark a fire which with the increased resistivity at that point equals increased heating which equals even more increased resistivity, over time there will be charring in the area further reducing the total connectivity at the point which in turn increases the resistivity, which means even more heat and so on.
Soldering the connection introduces a far larger surface area of connection, thus avoiding this potential problem. Crimping is similar in that the copper strand(s) are crushed creating a far larger surface of contact thus reducing the resistivity introduced due to a join.
It's not a pointless standard but there for a reason.
Thank you for taking the time to break it down for us. I most definitely gained some good knowledge today, sir

А можно вопрос - а почему в снипах разрешены только сварка, пайка и пружинные клемники? Не потому ли, что при подобных соединениях пятно контакта порой крайне мало, происходит цикличный нагрев соединения, его расширение и ослабевание. А в последствии, в ряде случаев, перегрев, искрение и пожар?
Serviço correto é charruar.
Вообще-то, согласно пункту 2.1.21. ПУЭ, соединения проводов и кабелей должны осуществляться одним из следующих способов: сваркой, опрессовкой, с помощью винтовых или болтовых соединений, либо методом пайки в соответствии с действующими инструкциями, утвержденными в установленном порядке.
Применение пружинных клемников допускается, термин именно «допускается» (это синоним фразы - «так сойдёт»), в обслуживаемых распаянных коробках, т.е. к которым есть лёгкий доступ для проведения ревизии.
А в остальном Вы абсолютно правы. 😉

*НО вот "термоусадка" не панацея!!!). При касании таких Трёх "куколок" ~380 В (даже обернутых общей термоусадкой) - провода "неплохо шьют" и ещё портят оборудование!!!*

Иначе получится, заставь дурака, а дальше сами знаете....
For those that forget to slip shrink tubing on, slide some on the wire before you make the connection. I still forget occasionally and know better.

Hi as a home repair man who went to school for electical work. This breaks all codes. And the knot will act as a resister in the line and choke the flow of current. And will cause a fire due to the knot heating up. So please dont use this.
Splicing wires isn't a conspiracy, and that is some of the worst slicing I'm ever seen. Ropes and electrical wires are different beasts. An electrical splice is more about keeping the electrical resistance low rather than the physical strength. Sure, wires will conduct just by touching, but there's more you need to do to make it safe. A poor connection will heat up potentially causing a fire, so a solid connection is important. Soldering slices or just using proper connectors is highly recommended especially with high loads. It's good practice with all loads.
This is safe enough. I’m not an electrician but I did stay at a holiday in last night.
These are common knots being done on electrical wire. And while they will work, they most likely will NOT pass any code inspection. These knots, however, work great with thin line--like fishing line--and small diameter rope.
I’m an electrician 45 years never made a splice like that and would never think of doing that. Basically a knot in the wire. People not a secret (all electricians and inspectors will tell you to only use UL listed wire connectors when making a splice). Faster and better.

I think even the US code forbids this.
At least the title is right, electricians don‘t want to know you about this because it‘s a fire hazard.
This is very good but I would certainly solder these connections.
This would only be ok in an emergency as a Short Term solution until you can make a proper connection. I almost lost an old Landrover due to someone doing this to the wiring. The arcing and high resistance caused the insulation to melt off which then caused a short that caught the dash on fire.
No, fixing for a emergency and leaving a fire hazard is no go..
This is fine for low voltage devices except for the fact that it should always be soldered. The knots themselves help to anchor but the connection needs to be soldered/sweated together. I agree wholeheartedly with everyone else about any wiring running household current/voltage. Beats some of the crappy crimp connections for car stereo, etc.
Not fine for low voltage either.

In Australia a Certified Electrician has to either install or check any wiring and then sign off on the work, this way if a fire happens the Insurance Company can see that it wasn't a Home handy man job and so will have a Licensed Electrician to talk to about the wiring.
If a Home Handy man does any Electrical work and it causes a fire, the Insurance Company won't pay out for the damages.
It's not worth the savings of a few hundred dollars depending on the job.
Apart from all the shortcomings pointed out in the previous comments, what actual application would require one to splice two conductors at the midpoint?
None. This is utter stupidity here in this video.
It’s not uncommon to “bus wire” power and ground for some low voltage application circuits. A common example would be string lighting.

How about just using a wirenut, a mechanical connection and can be taken apart if needed.
Been around the trades for 20 years, never in my life have i seen any electrician ever solder anything. Never have I seen an electrician use heat shrink to insulate anything. The only time i have ever seen anything like thos performed was a car radio installed by best buy that crapped out soon after. I fail to see a situation this would ever be useful, unless it was a shady construction crew that ran short and did not want to pull new wire to complete the run. Would never pass inspection.
I have soldered and heat shrinked many cables in my life. It is common practice especially in the marine industry where you need a propper waterproof joint.

I've been an electrician for 45 years and I don't mind if you see the video. Most of the time we use wire nuts or butt splicer terminals. I'm wondering what the plumbers don't want us to know.
I'm thinking they mean electricians don't want us to see this because it shouldn't be tried when actually doing electrical work. There's always that one person, shade tree electrician(using that very, very loosely) that says I can fix it.
Me too, 50 years!
Look all they want !!!
Till their property burns down bc of loose connections over time.
These video titles are pathetic.

It‘s dangerous and that‘s why electricians don‘t want others to see this.
Wago terminals (and wire nuts) are definitely better for this.
And I studied how to use a multimeter! and once all of my notes were securely printed into my book, although my citation of the auto parts store website video might have been recorded improperly, these notes may have been useful if not left at a different location in just the knick of time too; it's a good thing I have been instructed to apply crimps before!
I have been an electrician for 48 year slices occur in junction boxes or extended pieces in service boxes so where would this apply at since it's illegal to
I want to finish what I was saying it's illegal to have a slice in a raceway and then you got two ends on on each end for what they tie in the middle whoever is producing this clip you must want to show people he can tie knots
Wait, you don't have a soldering iron but you have a heat gun and heat shrink tubing? Most of the time heat shrink tubing is the hardest to come by.

That's just my 27+ years in fire investigation talking.
Resistive heating/poor terminations are by far the more serious risk of fire in domestic and most commercial wiring.
Wow! Ty. Very 😎
Das goed als noodoplossing om heel even verder te kunnen. Op lange termijn heb je kans op vonkvorming als de kabel/draad beweegt wat weer brandgevaar met zich meebrengt.
As a farmer for many years always rushed for time looking for shortcuts that work...first glance I thought well that looks great...after reading comments from electrician...I will NEVER DO THIS
If you had to read comments from electricians to know this is a bad idea, never do ANY electrical work, EVER.
Totally illegal to splice wires in this manner - in all states!
And UNSAFE!!!
No soldering either.
In all the universe!!
very nice
Might work ok in wires 12 inches long. But how do you do it with wires that are in place and run the length of the house?
Exactly! Plus they violate the NEC standards!
21st century.
The best contact and transmission of electricity was shown by means of copper feet, soldering and only manual winding.
these knots are good with string. for better electrical contacts either solder or a good crimp
Wago terminals are the way to go.
Soldering and crimping doesn‘t guarantee that the wires can handle their rated current permanently.
As an electrician these applications are against national code which inspection goes by in order for a passing grade.Also i can’t remember the last time i would see needing to do this in everyday wiring.
Which nation? TH-cam is global. It covers all nations.
According to rule 110.14, it is not against NEC code to have soldered electrical splices as long as it conforms to their rules. This can vary depending on local jurisdictions, but if it is considered old work, in most cases it would grandfathered in unless deemed to be a fire hazard
Long live impedances to the fullest!
If you want to learn how to tie knots, visit the mariner section,
this is electricity, and here the best thing to do is to use the soldering iron...
HILARIOUS!....I can't wait for this guy's next video: "What mechanics don't want you to know....easy and cheap brake jobs for DIYers".....LOL

Electricity is magnetism and those curls in the wire create eddy's in the magnetism, over heat and fire 🔥 🚒 easy
Pretty sure solder and flux are used to maintain connections from oxidation, moisture and a host of other things like preventing movement and arcing.
I was taught to solder all wire splices but hey, I'm no electrician and I most certainly don't work on houses or high current applications.
People mention using proper certified connectors. Even then only play with them if you have the proper attaching and securing equipment.
For low power stuff like adding a camera to a circuit, sure, a proper wire nut will do.
nám elektrikárom je jedno, či to viete. a spojiť modrý vodič s hnedým je excelentný nápad. len tak ďalej.
Видать украл телефон у санитара, пока тот ему делал укол, потому что у пациентов в психбольнице отбирают телефоны, что бы вот такие видео не выходили в ютьюб
Trabalho como Técnico em Elétrica a quase 4 décadas e isto aí é um crime. 😂😂😂
Claramrnte trabalho de merda
Como não fazer um derivação, é conteúdo para os professores de elétrica mostrar para os iniciantes de como não fazer kk
@@otaviosombra4954 exato
I've only had two or three houses burn down in the past 12 years of doing splices like these. So not too bad, huh? ..
It’s great that we don’t have the dislike values here, so everyone sees the 35k likes and thinks, that this video is good.
Сразу видно не электрик, а рыбак, ещё-бы воблер прицепил, вообще бы красота была.

somente a última dica achei útil. Mas já valeu o vídeo.
Are 5 cent luster terminals forbidden in your country?
Nice video information for details 👍
В каких нормативных документах описаны эти способы соединений проводов?
None. Please do not do this!
I am a journeyman wireman with the IBEW. I have been an electrician since 1989. These connections are not code and could potentially cause you many problems(fires, loss of insurance coverage, law suits).
Mam piłę elektryczną 1.800 vat i po włączeniu jej wyłącza się instalacja elektryczna. Przyczyną jest szybki start tej piły. Jak dokonać obniżenia obrotów przy starcie .Proszę o poradę i kontakt zemną.Dziękuję .
The only application for this I can imagine is if I were driving across a desert and my car stopped working and I had to join two wires to get it going again, before it got cold and dark, and wild animals came out.
A bit of history, I rewired a house built in 1912, saw some of this technique, with 10 gauge solid copper wire, cloth insulation. Seemed to hold up OK, biggest problem we saw was mice chewing to enlarge the holes the wire was run through, by chewing off all the insulation. Found one guy burnt crispy in the junction box behind the dryer, chewed the insulation then attempted to squeeze through a 1/2" knockout, over the exposed wires.
I would not use this technique in 120 or 240 volt house wiring. Both legal and safety issues make it a bad idea.
If I did use it, in a vehicle or project, especially with the stranded copper, I'd go ahead and solder it anyway to prevent a poor connection and heat build up as it ages. And always, a second layer of heat shrink.
If you are going to do any electrical work, take the time to educate yourself, and always follow local best practices and code. If on anything, you are not sure...stop! And go look it up. And be tidy, well organized and well secured wiring makes the code inspection go smoother.
All depends on the load. For any resistive fault once the fault resistance matches the load resistance then you get a power match and half the circuit power will dissipate at the fault. Even before you get there the fault in a high load circuit can readily cause a fire.
Bear in mind that most high power loads involve resistance coils that can be metres long. This fault - the point of high resistance contact - can be the size of one strand of that m/s conductor. Which is why those faults are often incendive, the power is being dissipated over such a small area.
P=(V^2)/R. That will give you the power dissipated at a particular fault. There won't be appreciable current rise or short circuit as the fault develops, your only chance to protect against this might be an Arc Fault Detection Device which is hardly ever found in an older property.
Plus, of course, only these most recent of protective devices could clear that fault, normal circuit breakers and fuses will happily pass the rated current (and more) so the fault develops (quite often by hysteresis and repeated heating/expansion cycles) until something ignites. Then you can clear the fault once insulation breaks down. Unfortunately, that is often too late and you've already got a fire, often in an enclosed space - wall cavity, ceiling space, floor void or cupboard.
The rest is history. As is your property, work place, place of worship, and if you are unlucky your life.
No difference whether it's a building or a vehicle... amperage works the same in both... a 20 amp circuit is a 20 amp circuit regardless of the voltage.

To licoricedisc, you are correct. I was thinking of the insurance, never heard of a case where someone caused a vehicle fire and was sued in court, but a house fire lawsuit over homeowner or unlicensed handyman wiring, too common.
@@docwatson1134 Lawyers chase the $$$ they don't care if it comes from building wiring, auto wiring... negligence pays... Insurance companies insure cars too, and you can bet if a car was destroyed and there were injuries/death from negligent wiring and the Insurance company had to pay... you can bet their Lawyers will be chasing $$$
@@Licoricedisc DC and AC faults behave differently. I'd much rather have an AC tickle at 60Hz than DC at the same power.
I've done electrical fires involving all manner of vehicles and faults for Court over nearly 30 years in forensic fire investigation.
Here's an idea of just buses....
Battery failures in 48 volt systems.
Aftermarket retarder (engine braking) system where relay was fitted behind dash, unrestrained and caught fire.
Aftermarket GPS system on bus where chaffing of cable caused fire.
Secondary cabin heater, where the 20 Amp fuse was "protecting" a 5 Amp "fast on" crimp connector - we had to do service recalls on 250+ vehicles to prevent further fires
LCD screen on bus that was a commercial "stationary" unit that was not designed for high vibration applications and the fluorescent HV connections broke down and started a fire
aftermarket radio (CB) system
alternator fires in a series of vehicles due to poor cooling
So there is plenty of work for electrical systems on vehicles. Done a few less in cars but generally they are smaller losses.....
