Amazing videos man we're lacking Australian electrical content thanks for sharing

[hazohutt]

Excellent has the details needed and no time wasting stuff

[samnicholson]

Such an excellent, clear, no bullshit video explanation. Love it. Keep it up.

Very clear, detailed instructions. Thanks mate 👍

[ptys.]

Excellent tutorial, I was scratching my head but now fully understand. Thanks.

thanks for the australian content very rare and hard to find on youtube .I removed a dimmer because my lights were flicking, stuck the wires back in and somehow i mucked it up because I have 3 switches operating my lights, now the switch only works when one of the other switches is on or off.At least I know what the loop does .

Love your videos ❤️man im an Apprentice and everything you say and explain makes a lot of since ☺️

id like to see you take a gopro with you to your jobs and break down step by step on what your doing that would be cool

[petermaher]

Great demonstration..I found it very informative and easy to understand...hopefully you will continue making these types of videos.

[sowhat]

Very useful, please upload more of the video

[kiddyzheng]

Thanks for this informative video to explain everything in a clean and clear way. Appreciate it!

Nice video mate. Any chance you could show the wiring of a 3 position (auto, on, off) switch for a PIR motion sensor

[MichaelLawler-ro]

Thank you so much, very clear to understand the steps to complete the job !!

[Utaker]

Spot on video this made it so easy. I really needed this.

Love the content! One thing I've wondered though is why Australia uses that steel bracket to mount wall plates and not boxes like they do in the USA.

Very Helpful thank you! Can you install one dimmer to 3 light switches at the same time? can the dimmer control more than one switch? I have a 3 button light switch with controls various lights in different locations. Can the dimmer control all of these lights?

[SesidharGonuguntla]

Do you have any videos for adding dimmer to two way switch

[idrisbarakzai]

Great video.. I reckon most of the apprentices learn more from you then they would on the job site

They just get yelled at instead of being taught! 😂

Great video with very clear information. My house has many dimmer switches installed in a new build. I have noticed that in some cases the dimmers are installed upstream of the switch, i.e. on the active side. The Clipsal installation docs clearly show the dimmer downstream of the switch, i.e on the light side, as you have done. Clearly the dimmer will still work in this non-standard configuration, but is there any downside to having the dimmer always active? Electronic fatigue and premature failure, for instance?

Thank you for the informative video. My house is using the loop at the light method, could you kindly advise me on how I can install the same dimmer switch with this old method?

[renevanzuijlen]

thanks so much, really clear explanation on common installation jobs! would you also be able to make a video about installing a dimmer switch like in your other video, but then within a 2 way switching configuration (looped at the switch)? that would be great!
