I'm not sure which I enjoy the most from JW's commentary, the extremely useful learning experience or the subtle dryness of his humour.

I've watched hours of videos on this because I can't get an electrician for love or money. I was really struggling to grasp it. This video switched a light on in my brain- finally! THANK YOU SO MUCH! 🙏👍💥 xox

I’ve just come across this video, it is undoubtedly the best explanation I’ve ever seen for any subject!! Many thanks.

[noahschmartz]

thanks again John if ur listening, its a Godsend to have these videos some mornings before doing small electrical job.

Did basic electrical work many years ago, and decided to wire shed for light and power. This video was great revision on how to do it and made it easy to remind me what to do.. electrician who came to check it was happy with all that I had done.. thank you so much.. saved me a fortune. :)

Just what i wanted to know, nothing needlessly explained or made overly complicated. Simple and clear information. Great vid John.

Thank you so much. The drawings finally did it for me. My light bulb came on and it makes perfect sense.

[matty]

Thanks John as always. Newly qualified electrician here and have learnt so much from your videos over time.

Hi John. Just want to write a thank you for this video. Your drawings and explanations are just at the right level for me. I've been replacing a light in my front room today and now understand what the wires do. I really the like the coloured Sharpie-drawn wires and the explanation of the current flow.

Very informative, and well done on simplifying something which has puzzled me for years. Got my head around basic lighting circuits within 24 minutes, perfect.

[paulbaldwin]

Thank you John. Your verbal and visual teaching style is amazing

[mrmaker]

May I say your voice is very easy on the ear, which makes listening to your video all the more enjoyable.

[ashleycurrington]

My friend who's an electrician, said to give you a watch. He said your excellent, he wasn't wrong. Great video and teaching style was very easy to understand. Thanks

[marcnewbury]

John. Thank you for such a straightforward explanation, without needless flamboyance or exuberance, and at a pace I can absorb what you're explaining. So very helpful and professional.

[reginap]

Fantastically logical, clear, unadulterated. Many thanks John.

[wsherratt]

I’d like to reinforce what others are saying JW. Really well explained and perfect with diagrams. I’ve used those to check stuff I’m looking at to get a better understanding. Keep up the good work on producing tutorials. If you ever get into considering a webinar on a chosen subject I’d sign up in an instant.

Great work John bin in building trade over 20 years and I finally understand how to do a lighting circuit you should have been a shool teacher John you explain everything superbly

[Jimmy-xkoe]

the best tutorial on lighting circuits i have seen...Keep up the sterling work and thanks...

[gavinguitar]

Did my city & guilds levels 1, 2 & 3 some years back. By god, I wish I knew you back then!! The illustrations along with the calm, flowing commentary explaing each diagram to each circuit is bang on the money!! Just what beginner's need. At college it was thrown at you, moving at a fast pace along with all the science classroom shit (although that shit does have to be learned). Great teaching skills John simples but bordering genius.

Been watching for a long time and I'm studying electrical installation at college from September. The videos the past couple days have been exactly what I need. Thanks John!
