Single Phase Electricity Explained - wiring diagram energy meter

Single phase electricity explained. In this video we learn electrical engineering basics by learning single phase meter wiring diagram. How electricity reaches our homes from the power station, transformer, transmission lines, distribution cables, service head and main fuse, electricity meter, main isolation switch, residual current device and circuit breaker. Electricity basics, how electricity works.

People like you, make the internet meaningful, don't stop with the videos, you are great!!

10 minutes of this video > 4 years of high school + 3 years of college. (Both high school and college are in electrical engineering) You my man deserve a medal and a statue.

Studying to become an automation technician here in Sweden, 1 year study - which includes getting electrician degree, and the course I take sends us a PDF-file to read at home, instead of actually teaching us there, videos like this makes it easier to understand, Thankz

[melvinjohnson]

Im I school right now to become an HVAC technician and your videos were probably the greatest find I've ever made. The info you give has helped myself and fellow classmates alot. Thank you so much for your videos and I hope you keep making them. Hope your having a good day! 👍😀😎

Wow... can I please say thankyou so much for explaining this in such amazing detail. So easy to follow and understand. I'm 37, I've been an instrumentation designer for years working mainly on 24vdc and I've rarely ever grasped electrical stuff... this is amazingly simple when explained by brilliant teachers like yourself.

[mexicanpoptart]

Even as simple as it's supposed to be, it's still so complex because of all the safety and quality of life features. Thank you for making this.

Recently started an apprenticeship and your videos have been crucial in my knowledge base for electrical work. Especially for not being in a formal classroom setting. Thank you sir

[scottadkin]

These are the videos I need to show to my non electrical friends. Sometimes it shocks me how little people know about the most useful thing we use everyday.

Thank you for the video. In Malaysia here most of our MCBs are designed to have the incoming section on the top and the outgoing section on the bottom. The incoming section is usually labelled 1, 3 or 5 while the outgoing section is label 2, 4 or 6. The new rule also requires each instant water heater (usually installed in shower room) to have its own RCD with a sensitivity of 10mA.

This has been by far the most comprehensible and straightforward explanation I've ever seen, great work!

[jwalinbhatt]

In my 4 years of Bachelor's Engineering in Electrical discipline, I didn't learn this at all. You, my friend, are a fucking legend. Thank you so much!.❤

[xethlorien]

Your videos are amazing and easy to understand. I've been hesitant to get back into school and finish my degree, but these vids make me more confident I can survive it. :)

[ComradeBroski]

Rcds, what an amazing device. Many people take electricity in their homes for granted and learning and respecting it can go a long way. stay safe!

[Mikej]

thanks for this, I have been watching Thomas Naggy doing electrical work and now I finally will understand some of what he is talking about. I hope you have one on ring circuits somewhere as well, if not I would like to see one. I kind of know how they work just not sure of the exact benefits and why we don't use it in the states and so forth. Very informative video, well done.

[aion]

Thank you very much!! Ive seen installs with RCD's where the null bars are a single bar. Very sketchy and your video helped me clearly understand the right way to do it :)

[AfricanSouthernCross]

The most comprehensive and clearest explanation of single phase electricity...wow...brilliant thank you !

[Spacefish]

In germany we typically have 3 phases to all levels of a building. Circuits are evenly distributed between phases.. some appliances even require 3 phases like water heaters ovens and stoves. So we can keep the current low and have a lot of power available at the appliance.
Run through water heaters for a bathroom are typically rated at 22kW and more

[stupossibleify]

Finally! A satisfying explanation of neutral/earth!

[j.maxwaddell]

Thank you for breaking this topic down to laymen's level terms and diagrams. Great job.
