2nd year IBEW apprentice who mainly does commercial, this is definitely an accurate video of rough-in at this stage of the project. From the little i have experienced already 😅. Good video for interested people wondering what an actual work day might look like!

This is great man, I just passed all the exams for apprenticeship, I’m just waiting for my drug tests results to come back and hopefully I get sponsored by a company soon so I can start working and doing my best.

Great explanation of the importance of precise measurement to install a box between the studs. One suggestion, on repetitive measurements create a story pole. The pole will act as a reference to the standardized hight of a box you are installing for a switch, outlet, data etc... Also, the pole will avoid you having to continually measure at every location.

I used to be a “commercial electrician”…there’s no money in it my guy. You’re just going to end up being a professional pipe runner and broke af unless you study up, get your j card and do your own thing. Good luck brother

[arcadianrebel]

Took a job for electrician apprentice excited to get into it. Really enjoyed this video 👍

[anthonycelona]

Looks like great work, I’m a residential electrician and commercial work was just never really for me, watching these is interesting to me because it’s so different from the work I do

[sauceboss]

Just got into the apprenticeship for inside wireman !! Nice video!!

[TheSparkyBrand]

I sure hope you have more help than that if that whole place is getting wired. I’ve been doing electrical work for about 8 months and I haven’t started school yet. They have me alone wiring up multiple rooms at a physician’s building in Baltimore. Can’t say I haven’t learned a lot without school but I’m eager to start. I’ve waited 8 months just to get some background knowledge and I have definitely caught along pretty fast. Anyways I know how it is getting boxes set and running jumpers and pulling your feeds. I get so frustrated when I’m alone especially when pulling through multiple studs and trying to fish down a wall haha

[cbrockman]

Love it gonna use your channel for reference! I’m in trade school in the valley now!

[Premoprodigious]

Thanks for making these vids buddy and keep making them for the interested individuals

[ryangrimm]

Great video man tomorrow is my first day for commercial / industrial work !

This kind of job is a lot of fun if you like producing with your hands but in the middle of the winter around cold steel, temperatures can drop to -10 depending on region. Use a towel on your shoulder before moving strut and conduit against your neck at that temperature so you last longer. I feel I should also say that during my time, we were not allowed to wear masks without everyone having to have to wear a mask so we weren't allowed to wear masks. My voice got so gruff sometimes I called everyone I knew and they didn't believe it was me because I sounded like a cement mixer hahaha. The crew though it was funny as well. It eventually went away but I have the worst skin irritation to this day, psoriasis now. I can't do this kind of job anymore but I still have dreams I'm doing it I worked so much lmao. They even told me I had a competitive amount of accumulated hours towards early graduation before I got sick. Apprentices life, %110 until you see it on the back of your eyelids :)
