Repairing Faulty Ground Fault Failure

Also Always test your GFCI or RCD devices to make sure they are not failing!

I was a US Navy mechanic for 20 years. I very often found that when something was malfunctioning, and I took it apart, didn't find anything obviously wrong, and put it back together, it was magically fixed. I think it's because in the process, I accidentally cleaned out whatever bit of debris or tightened whatever loose thing was causing the original problem. Gremlins broke it, gremlins fixed it.

8:46 - 10:53 Pretending to understand ElectroBoom's explanations makes me feel smarter

Mehdi is so selfless. He goes around the world to test electrical systems in tourist areas to make it safer for all while letting his own home become neglected with failing outlets. He is the true hero we need!

9:33 never heard “thingy”’so many times in a span of a min and half LOL

[LolKillization]

Gloves?! My god, that's the first time i see Mehdi wearing protective gear on his hands.

Here in Uruguay we have a saying: "En casa de herrero, cuchillo de palo" (in a Blacksmith's house, a wooden knife), so you get where I go with this. I always found that the greatest of professionals (specially the most creative) usually tend to be pretty careless about their own workplaces... Maybe because they know exactly when each plug in the house is gonna burst into flames, who knows.

Hi ElectroBOOM
I just wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for all the incredible content you create. Your videos are not only informative but also highly entertaining, making the often intimidating world of electronics accessible and fun for everyone.

From your detailed explanations of basic principles to your adventurous experiments, you have a unique way of making complex concepts understandable and enjoyable. Your approach to teaching is refreshing, blending humor with serious education, which keeps your audience engaged and eager to learn more. The way you demystify electronics, breaking down intricate ideas into simple, digestible pieces, is truly a gift.

Your dedication to safety and your relentless emphasis on the potential dangers of working with electricity is something that sets you apart. You manage to balance the thrill of experimentation with the essential reminders of safety, ensuring that your viewers are well-informed and cautious. Your personal experiences, often humorously painful, serve as valuable lessons to us all, and they certainly make your points unforgettable.

On top of your educational content, your creativity and willingness to take risks are incredibly inspiring. Whether you're building elaborate circuits, testing the limits of various components, or demonstrating electrical phenomena, your enthusiasm is infectious. You've inspired countless people to pick up a soldering iron, experiment with circuits, and dive into the fascinating world of electronics.

Thank you for all the hard work, dedication, and passion you put into your videos. You have a remarkable talent for turning what could be a dry subject into an exciting adventure. Your ability to educate and entertain simultaneously is unmatched, and it's clear that you truly care about your audience and their learning experience.

Please keep up the fantastic work. We are all eagerly looking forward to your future projects and the unique way you will present them. You are not just a great educator but also a fantastic entertainer who makes learning an enjoyable journey.

For as often as Mehdi performs his GFCI tests, he ought to 3D print some sort of enclosure that would let him put his probes and resistor all in place ahead of time. Sure, wouldn't make as much of visual spectacle, but it'd be easier!

disassembly then assembly often fixes stuff for me to. great achievement to have.

[MisterPlanePilot]

This is the really cool stuff I also come here for. Mehdi is a pro as disassembling and learning things, only to put it all back and teach us something, especially with everyday household items like a GFCI outlet. I absolutely love it

14:25 The noticeable delay between "Click!" and "Hijau!" made that shock even funnier XD

[jmhuene]

"I forgot to fix it!" - BUSTED out laughing 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

[justinbanks]

13:48 ah yes, the good old sniff test to see if your electronics are working 🤣

[Pbl]

One electroboom dies in each video. There is an electroboom factory somewhere producing clones of him every month or so.

[justinbanks]

9:31 "warranty terminated if opened"

🤣

[BMack]

Thank you for this, I often get asked about these in my line of work and haven't really had an opportunity to take a working one apart. I work in this weird little niche bridging electrical and electronics, specifically dealing with high voltage surges that blow up electrical and electronics in people's homes, mostly from lightning strikes and damage from the electrical grid.

These fail are many ways and you let me understand how they basically all work. One is obviously catastrophic where plastic blows out and electronics are burnt. But they also will sometimes not reset, sometimes they will not hold a reset, sometimes the button is permanently and firmly depressed down, and sometimes the button will be press-able but it won't do anything.
