THE IMPOSSIBLE FAULT FIND - Electrician Life
Join Cory & Reuben as they finish up the consumer unit and try to find several faults, one of which is seemingly impossible to trace. Reuben installs his first electric vehicle charging point all by himself, and Cory narrowly escapes being killed by wasps.

ruben did a brilliant job he is learning fast and you are a good mentor

[bigsyd]

Must admit this channel is now my favourite..it’s come on leaps and bounds from when I started watching in the beginning…keep up the great work

[martyndix]

Climbing in a small space towards wasp nests… Sounds like a job for Reuben! 🤣

[TheKatana]

I'm not a sparky but I really like your videos - great vibe as a company and entertaining. A bit like Skill Builder channel. Just easy watching and a pleasure to see people who know what they are doing at work. :-) Cory - at 23 yrs I think you also deserve a pat on the back mate. Keep it up!

[Malandrin]

this video has chilled vibes, the music, the tone in Codys voice, so relaxing to watch, Kudos to the editor and the rest of the team 🥰🥰🎉🎉

[terrystephens]

Well Cory and Reuben, on the basis of the quality of your work on this job, you are now the “A” Team for Artisan Electrics 😃👌👌👏👏

[adamanthony]

Thank you for continuing this long walk...thank you for the education. Much appreciated when time for interests is so limited.

[philipsmith]

Reuben is progressing well . hope Jordan can find a collage so he can start his prentship .

1st thing bonding, those additional bonding cable maybe going to cast iron stack pipes that have now be replaced but the bonding has be left in place, by the age of that house suggest it did have cast iron stack pipes in the past , 2nd was that second consumer unit fed from an RCBO ? it should be fed from an MCB . Because and RCD fed from an other "RCD" upstream should have a tripping current 3 times of the RCD downstream .

Some PIRs can be overidden with a short power-cycle

The Finnish defence force has a motto: "Nothing is impossible. The impossible just costs a lot more"

[imark]

My thought on supplementary bonding is if there is a metal object that might end up getting in contact with a wire then it would cause an instant trip rather than becoming hot. Are used to be required to attach plumbing to the electrical system in the US but I think that's fading out now that most municipalities are using plastic incomers and most plumbing is not copper in the house. Which leaves me in a house with unbonded copper piping that makes me go should I or should I not?

[elco_os]

In The Netherlands we use extra bonding in the bathroom. There we connect together the water pipes, drains, bath tub and even the concrete floor. This ensures that even when both the RCD and main earth fails, and someting de bathrooms fails and becomes live, at least every metal object is at the same voltage, so you won't die.
maybe they did something like this here also?

[MTspDARDY]

That labeller!!!! What the model hahaha?? Love the videos and the fault finding and the work is second to none!! Keep up the good work!!

[jensschroder]

1:34 A lamp at this height? Does it light up for the birds or where does it shine?
You certainly need tamper proof screws if you have to get a ladder first.

[georgelelliott]

Great work ruben 👌👍
Also cory and jordan have you even considered when doing a kitchen rewire for example instead of using capping to give a bit of mechanical protection use pvc conduit I understand some times it’s not practical but it would mean if there’s a fault you can pull and draw new wires though the conduit that’s buried in the wall and use 25mm pvc conduit because there is more room and it’s easier to pull new cables though great videos keep it up so experienced for your age cory well done 👍

Last week I lifted a floor board in a rather dark loft and once I had it out, I noticed a wasp nest in the very last joist space under the eaves, easily twice the size of the big one you had here! Thankfully it was completely empty.

[chrisardern]

Nice explanation of using to ohms setting to find which end of the cable the damage may have been unfortunately its about mid way.
Did I see rodent poison trays in the loft where the wasps are living.?

[ianlove]

Great Job Reuben you have a very good teacher.

[davedrew]

I like watching you Guys I was sparks all my working life I’m 72 now. You Guys are really good at your jobs. Also both of you are really good looking ( according to my female friend. )
