Why does this guy insist on stripping the jacket off before running into the box? The jacket is there to protect the conductors. Pull your wire through and then strip it!!

@sgtgrooover i am a apprentice. i found that if you run the cable into the box, then mark it then strip 1/2 inch after your mark it makes the cable perfect. this way you already have the clamp bent and part of the cable in the box so your conductors have less of a chance getting damaged. i use cable strippers to strip wire not speed strippers.

@sgtgrooover Yeah, for the plastic boxes, he should probably be stripping after pulling it through, but it doesn't matter for metal boxes - as long as you're careful while you pull them through. The guys I work with always strip first, then push through (myself included), though we always use metal. But if you're pushing the wires into the box so hard that you're nicking the actual wire insulation on the way in, you're obviously doing it way too hard.

is actually phase neutral and earth , both the pahse and the neutral r live in a circuit n where im froms scotland , any half decent electrician doesnt use gauges to determine how much to strip off , its second nature , these vids r a danger to the public

[coolboarder44]

@thegalster1888 totally, I was laughing at his 'strip-guage measuring' too :)

"Black to brass, or burn your ass." Memorable.

[Guitarstring1084]

Thats real good, teach everyone to do our job. That will really make business pick up. Not to mention a homeowner doing their own electrical cause that's safe!

[mickyc05]

Yup Live Neutral and Earth and much more fun when ya forget to flip down the RCD

[GIDZ1111]

haha hot ground and neutral, where im from thats live earth neutral

[oldschoolio]

should'n you actually start with the ground wire then neutral, then finally black (hot)?

[bruinmi]

It's always a smart thing to do if you are wiring it hot. So it's nice to get used to it. I won't go in to why but it's not a requirement or anything.
