Wow, great video.

You have a rare combination of knowledge and the ability to teach in a fun, easy to understand manner.

I wish I had more instructors like you back when I was in school.

You explanation of the new machines with their electronics needing separate 120 circuits was just what I needed to explain 4-wire. Thanks a lot.

I think you are great man! Excellent video. You could be a teacher. You speak logically and clear and concise. Thank you for helping other people with your information.

I am not an electrician. I watched this over and over again. I got a hold of the same plug, and the same kind of tester, With the help of the folks at Home Depot, I got the 4-wire 220v (orange colored) romax and went to town. Because of this video, and this gentleman's ability to explain this thing, the project went off without a hitch. I listen to every word of advice, like make sure the wire casings are not touching the screws in the breaker etc. I took my time, constantly checkin my work along the way, and the project was completed in an hour and a half. I did have to go back and correct anything. The dryer runs perfect. Thanks for uploading this even though is was almost a year ago.

Fantastic. Thank you so much. We were about to call an electrician and my man found your video and this was the exact video we needed. We now have a dryer outlet that works! Thank goodness!

Thanks for this video.
I just finished installing a 220V double pole 30amp breaker and 4-wire connection to my dryer. This was my first 220V wiring.

No fake news.

I love love love your instructional videos..I have used your knowledge to reconstruct, replace, rewire my old breaker box. I've spent many a nights listening and re-listening to your videos. My house is coming along..just a few more outlets to change out and then I'm done..THANK YOU!!!

Excellent instructional video. First one I found that actually explains difference between 3 and 4 wire 220. Thank you!

Awesome video, great technical information flavored with a great personality. Used this information to wire a new dryer outlet and wired a new 30 amp breaker into a sub panel downstairs. Now if our dryer breaks down upstairs we have a backup. Thanks Dom. Keep em coming. My guess is your saving lives with this important info.

[boblyons]

hey Dominic 7 years later and this video is still educating! Thanks man, you are a big help

Good instructions. For some reason I thought it was more complicated but it's actually quite straightforward. 2 hot wires to the double breaker, neutral white wire to the neutral bus and the bare ground wire to the ground bus.

[twoweeledsoto]

Gotta say. This is one of the best, if not the best instructional videos I have seen. Excellent. I don't know how you do it, but you have the ability to explain just enough why and how, without feeling dragged out. Prefect! I subscribed!

Thank you for the tutorial. I'm helping a single mom who just got a stackable washer and dryer. The land fished the wires but not the plug or the breaker.

[CaffeineGeek]

"Dropped my little nut here....  well... not my LITTLE nut, but the nut (mumble mumble)... You get it   CLASSIC!  You crack me up.

At 1:41 into this, I had my main question answered. At 2:06, any other mysteries were cleared up. I'm going to finish watching now. But, I'm already smarter and this is ridiculously straight forward and informative.

[Josh.Straughn]

That was a lot of fun to watch. I love the "Bang!! haha" when you flipped the breaker. Cheers!
