Jamie Axten beat me to it too 😂 but Tom you are right the percentage of bitter/negative people in the world is growing. I’m not even a spark (I’m a carpenter)and I follow you keep up the good work and daves hair doo probably removed all your cobwebs 😂
I glue a little tiny bit of conduit into the box, then put a PVC adapter onto the bit of conduit so its flush with the box, glue that, then screw the stuffing gland into the adapter 👍
Don't give people like that the time of day mate, the building industry is full of people who bully others verbally and mentally with no regard for others well-being. Your content, editing, knowledge and the way you hold and conduct yourself is far superior to a lot of other trades I have come across. Keep doing what your doing buddy and ignore those that ruin it with negativity.
PLEASE TAKE NOTE !! The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 (HASAWA) lays down wide-ranging duties on employers. Employers must protect the 'health, safety and welfare' at work of all their employees, as well as others on their premises, including temps, casual workers, the self-employed, clients, visitors and the general public. Its law my friend !!!.
Thomas Nagy, in relation to your question with the stuffing gland I use a short piece of conduit into the box then on the other end a female adapter into which the male thread of the stuffing gland will fit.
I use wiska boxes mate screw conduit straight in with adaptor and then stuffing gland into the other side, you can also buy the smaller wiska boxes now they look smart ! 👍🏻👌🏻
Love watching your videos Tom. Been a sparky over 20 years now and self employed sparky for 10 years, just two of us running a small company like yourself. Always good to see how others do things. Keep up the good work mate.
Tom don't usually comment but how can anybody have anything bad to say about you. The vlogs you do are informative and for newcomers to the industry an open view of the day to day life of an electrician. Keep up the good work
Trust me tom just leave the haters to hate there will get to a point were they will get bored and just leave he must be enjoying if he comments on every vid
Can't see why gluing the stuffing gland would be a bad idea anyway, seems to work just fine - have resorted to that myself both in absence of and in addition to a nut on the inside of the box, but the difference is that I've never seen a round junction box in a modern application. Your solution to an "industrial domestic installation" ( in lack of a better term ) actually looks very nice. The biggest difference is regarding the fuse board and the internal setup of that, where we're required to have an isolator wich cuts both live and neutral as a main switch inside the board with a fuse in the box with the meter in it, and 30mA RDC's that cut both live and neutral for each circuit. Always fun to watch your videos, gives me a reason to think twice about my own work!
in regards to the stuffer out of a conduit box, you can run a ring of electrical tape around the threads (similar to how you would apply PTFE tape) and then push the excess into the back of the stuffer. makes an extremely tight fit onto the conduit box
To get a stuffing gland into a pvc conduit box I’ve allways either drilled a 20 mm hole in the lid and used the lock nut or used a bush adapter and a short bit of pipe and not used the bush. The way you do it seems better though. Might do that next time.
Got to say Tom, as a fellow spark love watching your videos, many things I’ve picked up different tips and tricks etc. Also genuine videos, can’t beat it, deserve the subs you’ve got mate!👌👌
That's what I do, sticks out a bit though. Tom's idea of a stuffing gland that fits straight into a conduit adaptor/box is actually pretty good, someone should start making them
For your stuffing glad they do a female adapter that one side slides over a piece of conduit and the other has the thread inside for you to screw a stuffer into but plastic adhesive does the job 👍
Keep up the great work. I Install X-ray rooms and work with electricians all the time. It is a great stepping stone to get into equipment maintenance as electricians now have to have computer skills on top of there knowledge of AC and DC power. 🙂
To attach the stuffing gland fit a bush coupler to the end of the conduit through box with conduit and then screw the stuffing gland into the Bush coupler
Another great video. When terminating surface mounted linear lights to conduit I like to use a Klik or Flex7 type plug/socket if the conditions are suitable. Fargo seems to have dropped off the radar, you did the right thing to call him out.
Hi, I am an electrician in belgium, My question, why you place a box next to the lights? We just put ower wiring just strait in the lights... Regards frop belgium! 😉 And keep making video's! Like them so mutch!
With the Conduit and stuffing gland. As short a stub of conduit as possible and a female bushed adapter. Ends up sticking out quite long but I don’t know another way personally
The way i put compressions on beeza boxes is use a small bit of conduit to put in the beeza entry then a female adaptor pushes over it and then thread the compression on to it, it does add a bit of length when assembled compared to ur method but it works
Use a little bit of conduit into the terminal box, leaving just enough for a female gland, and the thread from the gland can be used for the stuff gland
Gland into female adapter and small cut of the conduit to join the end box with the female adapter.. bud thanks for all your content we appreciate the effort and time spent on filming..
Great video Thom, nice mix between seeing the install, bit of a rant, and your immutable character! Well done for not rising to the haters - only way to go IMHO!
I use a 20mm female adapter and cut a 50mm length of conduit screw the glad into the adapter and glue the length of conduit Into the box. It adds a bit of length but works really well. Ps. Love the videos 👍
In Australia we use plain to screwed adaptors to join conduit boxes to bullet glands(stuffing glands as you call them) they are available in various sizes including reducers (ie 16 to 20mm).Also it is a requirement in Australian wiring rules to seal all holes in switchboards to prevent the spread of fire with a fire rated sealant or similar. I’ve never seen you seal your switchboards. Is it not a requirement in England/ Europe? Keep up the good work. Love the channel👍. Cheers jim
Don't listen to bad people like that we love you and your content mate keep doing you! P.S I'm so glad you showed how you've been putting stuffing glands in the terminal boxes I always wondered
As an Aussie signal maintainer for a railway the answer is with lots of bug spray and the occasional loud high pitched screen. One of our technicians is shit scared of spiders and manages okay. You just don't stand behind him if he's opening cabinets etc. My favourite thing is opening pits seeing a few spiders then when you spray it seeing all the other spiders filling the pit start to twitch and die
Probably been mentioned 100 times already, but a coupler & female adapter, that way you can ditch the nut off the gland an screw it straight into the female adapter! Or stop end box & drill a 20mm hole in the lid is another way. Looking tidy enough as you've done it though 👌🏻
Terminating a stuffing gland into a conduit box I get a conduit coupler a small bit of pipe push them all together and screw stuffing gland into the thread of conduit adaptor
With those lights I think are PG11, I used PG11 to M20 convertor. I then use copex and could screw the adapter straight into the light fitting, they also slide on the fixings so you can move them to create room to connect cables. The thing I dont like about those lights is they have a pass through for live and neutral with no CPC so I would only use it as single entry. Alternatively as others have said you can use a short bit of conduit with a female adapter but to be fair you would still need to weld in the small bit of conduit with solvent so you may as well do what you do which I never thought of doing and just put it straight into a box.
Glue in threadless stuffing glands do exist, i've used them a couple of times. They are pretty pointless though since you can just glue in a normal one.
Didn't think those glands could be solvent welded (they are nylon I think?). If it does stick its the box that's melted onto the gland, they don't fully melt together like they should. I've used superglue on them before.
Nice looking job, not the easiest with reinforced concrete. Glue on the inspection thru box is a good idea. One alternative would be to use click light sockets but maybe a bit pricey. Great vids 👍
I use a Female adapter glued to the through box by short length of pipe, this allows you to screw a stuffing gland onto the conduit. 👍 Great videos . 👍
The metal fireproof saddles are supposed to be for plastic pipe im guessing like the ones you put in conduit, so if it sets on fire or heats it up, it wont melt the plasic clips, the metal ones will try to keep it in place.
Small bit of tube in to a female end with stuffing gland screwed in, doesn't look the nicest but if you can get the female end up against the box it's not to bad and works a treat!
Looks just like my garage that I had rewired after a fire. Interesting to see how you approach it, I had to get it re-done as the first spark did such a shit job (garage door hit the led battens when you opened it, bits of conduit cut too short so they didn't fit the couplers). Second lot (Walkers of Gloucestershire) did a lovely job
Thomas, regarding the stuffing gland, i just wrap abit of insulating tape (1 & half wrap) around the threaded end and it will stick in the thru box no problem.. thank me later ;)
To put a stuffing gland on an inspection box I use a female adapter which the stuffing gland threads into, then cut a small piece of conduit about 5cm works sweet 👍🏻
10:45, I usually take a female conduit adapter and stick a small piece of tube between the conduit box and the adapter just enough to connect them, then you can thread stuffing glands etc into the conduit adapter, it stick outs. A little bit more but does the job
I’m following you since day 1 I’d say I don’t get this hate thing if he doesn’t want to watch why is he ..keep it up Tom your the original and first tradesman that done TH-cam videos still the highlight of the week
Tom, stuffing gland is made of nylon and the pipe is pvc. This will not give a good seal. The best way is to get a female adapter and glue that in and use the 20mm thread to screw in.
Opinion on wago I would love to use them all the time but I think my boss would have a fit with regards to pricing. But I feel we should move on do away with fluorescent for led and wago for connector block.
It’s a bit long but I put a short piece of conduit in to the box, put a female adapter onto that and the stuffing gland screws in to that. But I wish there was a stuffing gland that pushed straight into the conduit box.
Long time watcher of the channel thomas and thank for the great content , on the conduit stuffing glad front i normally cut a short length of conduit and attach it to a male conduit adapter
Not sure if this was answered but I'm in Australia. 1st year sparky and done landscaping before that, spiders aren't to bad. Just flick them off. When there's lots you just get used to it. Possum and rat carcasses gross me out.
Costs a bit, but you could use wiska boxes so you can thread the adaptor in. The new 206's are good for straight-through joints like you have leading up to the lights. Alternatively couldn't you put a conduit adaptor on the end of the light and avoid having the joint entirely?
Fargo Gemini Is probably Dave. Trolling Tom 😂😂
Fuck you stole my comment idea, now you are Fargo
lol :-D
Hes a tottenham fan hahaha
Jamie Axten beat me to it too 😂 but Tom you are right the percentage of bitter/negative people in the world is growing.
I’m not even a spark (I’m a carpenter)and I follow you keep up the good work and daves hair doo probably removed all your cobwebs 😂
good one Jamie like Thomas said if you don't like the channel find another channel
I usually cut a tiny length of conduit and fit a female adapter into it. Then just screw the gland into the adapter. Good video as always 👍🏼
Female bush adaptor - works like a dream like that, Mr Nagy take note!
This is how I do it as well joe but not to say toms way is wrong I don’t see a problem with either way as long as it is done right👍
The way forward
@@kevinstag with toms way you will be gluing the gland every time you tighten or loosen the gland!
I've always used a female adaptor, with a stuffing gland on conduit
I glue a little tiny bit of conduit into the box, then put a PVC adapter onto the bit of conduit so its flush with the box, glue that, then screw the stuffing gland into the adapter 👍
That's how it's been done for many years.

bet FARGO GEMINI is a plumber pretending to be a spark !!!
No mate....he’s worse than that....he’s a plasterer
He must have enlisted the help of a gown up to write it for him if he's a plumber.
He's tool pretending to be a spark ;)
Everyone watching:
Tomas Nagy: THAT REMINDS ME....
That’s a prefab concrete shed from the 60s with asbestos cement roof. Just like mine at home.
Funny enough i was thinking asbestos when he was tapping it lol but the pattern on the roof really screams asbestos don't it.

I wondered how long it would be before someone pointed out it might be.
White asbestos concrete is fine if you dont sand or grind/cut it.
The fibrosis risk from it is no different to rock wool or fibre glass insulation.
Thomas Nagy, in relation to your question with the stuffing gland I use a short piece of conduit into the box then on the other end a female adapter into which the male thread of the stuffing gland will fit.
Everyone scrolling the comments looking for Fargo, but he’s now hiding 😂
ha same
Yes where are you Fargo? Your silence speaks volumes you trolling runt..
😂😂
Fuck Fargo. You Rock
I use wiska boxes mate screw conduit straight in with adaptor and then stuffing gland into the other side, you can also buy the smaller wiska boxes now they look smart ! 👍🏻👌🏻
2:45 Thomas you need to put that on a t-shirt, had to watch it a few times, comic gold!!!

‘We do good job’ - should be on your intro video. Ha ha
Spurs fan, need anymore need to be said about ‘fargo’
Samuel Anderson what do you expect from him
Ha ha love it.

10:10 take the locknut out a female adaptor, thread the gland in and then use a bit of conduit to join the through box to the adaptor. 👍
That's what I do, sticks out a bit though. Tom's idea of a stuffing gland that fits straight into a conduit adaptor/box is actually pretty good, someone should start making them
You can use a short bit of pipe and a female adapter to get the threaded end but makes the install more messy and more expensive
That glueing the glad In is a good idea! I’m going to do that from now on, usually id have used an adaptable box but your idea is better.. 👍
For your stuffing glad they do a female adapter that one side slides over a piece of conduit and the other has the thread inside for you to screw a stuffer into but plastic adhesive does the job 👍
Tom don't let it get to you, been watching your content for years. You inspired me to do Elcectical Installations in college.
Keep up the great work. I Install X-ray rooms and work with electricians all the time. It is a great stepping stone to get into equipment maintenance as electricians now have to have computer skills on top of there knowledge of AC and DC power. 🙂
Female adapter with a piece of conduit between then screw the stuffing gland in 👍🏻
Block him, your work and videos are outstanding. Electrician here from the US, Maryland to be exact. Keep up the good work.
Fargo has a crush on you bro! Keep up the good work.
I dont know how someone could say such means comments, to such a nice chap like yourself.
To attach the stuffing gland fit a bush coupler to the end of the conduit through box with conduit and then screw the stuffing gland into the Bush coupler
Appreciate and enjoy your work , Mr. Nagy
Small piece of conduit into a female box adapter for the stuffing glands. Keep up the good work.
Small piece of tube with a conduit adapter. Stuffer screws straight onto it.
We use female adaptors with a small piece of tube - solvent weld that into the terminal box & the screw the stuffing gland into that 👍

Hi,
I am an electrician in belgium,
My question, why you place a box next to the lights?
We just put ower wiring just strait in the lights...
Regards frop belgium! 😉
And keep making video's! Like them so mutch!
Are you sure that DB has enough future expansion potential? I'd have fitted a 14 way myself. 😅
With the Conduit and stuffing gland. As short a stub of conduit as possible and a female bushed adapter. Ends up sticking out quite long but I don’t know another way personally
Also personally I’d use a cone cutter on the light fitting and open it up to 20mm (Assuming you could obviously)
Sometimes people find it easier to be cruel than pleasant, I'm not a spark but I'm very clued up on it and find your channel extremely educational 😊
The way i put compressions on beeza boxes is use a small bit of conduit to put in the beeza entry then a female adaptor pushes over it and then thread the compression on to it, it does add a bit of length when assembled compared to ur method but it works

To answer your question about attaching the gland to the box you can use a small bit of conduit and a female bush, screw the CTS gland into the bush
Great video Thom, nice mix between seeing the install, bit of a rant, and your immutable character! Well done for not rising to the haters - only way to go IMHO!
I use a bit of pipe, coupler with a thread on it and screw the stuffing gland into that.
Hi tom Another way securing conduit is by using flat crampets you drill a hole and knock them in, keep up the good work
I use a 20mm female adapter and cut a 50mm length of conduit screw the glad into the adapter and glue the length of conduit Into the box. It adds a bit of length but works really well. Ps. Love the videos 👍

I love how you expose this Fargo guy hahaha. Laughing out loud, for real. Respect for not banning him.
Nice work as usual sir, always worth covering your snout tho with those garages they're often a corrugated asbestos roof, keep on trucking fella 👍

Really enjoy short one hit videos like this
A female adaptor attached to the conduit box with a small piece of. Conduit will allow a stuffing glAnd to be screwed into place via the adaptor.
Bollocks to Fargo your taking the time to share your skills and opinions with people keep up the good work
Good to see another video Tom, another one over the weekend wouldn't go amiss if you have the chance 😉
Hi tom.
Female pvc adaptor then the compression will thread into that.
You must have used female or male adaptors at the socket/switch boxes ?
Well, I personally enjoy your videos very much! Keep up the great work.
Hey Tom. From a fellow sparks in Australia, spiders aren't too bad over here. Its when u find 2m+ snake skins in a celing yoy start to hurry
Looks just like my garage that I had rewired after a fire. Interesting to see how you approach it, I had to get it re-done as the first spark did such a shit job (garage door hit the led battens when you opened it, bits of conduit cut too short so they didn't fit the couplers).

Conduit box, small piece of conduit, female adaptor and then screw the gland into the adaptor. That's how I've always done it.
The stuffing gland question, I cut a small piece of conduit and glue a female adapter on and boom, you cans screw your stuffing gland in
Brandon Pochin maybe it’s a phase 3 thing!
Thomas, regarding the stuffing gland, i just wrap abit of insulating tape (1 & half wrap) around the threaded end and it will stick in the thru box no problem.. thank me later ;)
To put a stuffing gland on an inspection box I use a female adapter which the stuffing gland threads into, then cut a small piece of conduit about 5cm works sweet 👍🏻

There’s actually an adapter for conduit now that there’s threads on the inside for glands there a female adapter
To get a gland into the box use a small piece of pipe with a female adaptor that gives you the thread for the gland
You must of turned down Fargos CV mate 🤦♂️
Tom, stuffing gland is made of nylon and the pipe is pvc. This will not give a good seal. The best way is to get a female adapter and glue that in and use the 20mm thread to screw in.
Opinion on wago I would love to use them all the time but I think my boss would have a fit with regards to pricing. But I feel we should move on do away with fluorescent for led and wago for connector block.
hi mate, I always use a female conduit adaptor with a stuffing gland screwed straight into little stab in-between adaptor and box
Don’t worry about Fargo mate. He’s probably a failed electrician or a plumber! Actually I think A plumber is a failed electrician! 🤣
There are glands available without thread, they're smooth and designed to be glued. Rare as hens teeth though!
I almost missed this comment I was scanning through and like oh another one that says ABCD glue glue glue
It’s a bit long but I put a short piece of conduit in to the box, put a female adapter onto that and the stuffing gland screws in to that.
But I wish there was a stuffing gland that pushed straight into the conduit box.
I liked your film, great to watch a good tradesman at work..top job and so neat.
Long time watcher of the channel thomas and thank for the great content , on the conduit stuffing glad front i normally cut a short length of conduit and attach it to a male conduit adapter
Not sure if this was answered but I'm in Australia. 1st year sparky and done landscaping before that, spiders aren't to bad. Just flick them off. When there's lots you just get used to it. Possum and rat carcasses gross me out.
Im not even a spark, or interested in becoming one. I just enjoy watching your videos. Gemini guy is clearly just a bitter guy full of bile.
Costs a bit, but you could use wiska boxes so you can thread the adaptor in. The new 206's are good for straight-through joints like you have leading up to the lights.
Alternatively couldn't you put a conduit adaptor on the end of the light and avoid having the joint entirely?
Female adaptor for the stuffing glands works well
Small bit of tube , with a female adapter on the end , to screw the flex gland in to
Add a small piece of pipe to the box and then a bush coupler and screw the gland into the coupler
Bush adapter,
screw the stuffer in it small bit of pipe and put into the box👍🏽
