Jordan thank you for the content!
Never underestimate the power of post it notes. Especially when working with someone else, 1A, 2A, 3A (EoL).
I use dust extraction on my rotary hammer, and use a steel door magnet from a security switch inside a disposable plastic bag turned inside out so that after I get done picking up all of my filings and chips I can just turn it right way around, throw out the bag, and don’t have anything on my magnet.
You should get a KC Tool link affiliate link for Tools4Sparks channel so your N. American viewers can get you a commission on tool recommendations because, I had been sitting on the fence on whether I needed the VDE Knipex electricians knife, but now is see I need it. I have already purchased like a half dozen things based on your recommendations.

I like the bit at the end where you are offering your leftovers to a college or such like. Big thumbs up for that!

[matthewwalley]

Neat job, For small armoureds I always use 300mm cable ties and use them for the spacing quicker than counting holes.

[johnoregan]

Great videos. I’m an apprentice electrician just in my second year now trying to learn as much as possible and your videos are very helpful! Thank you.

Neat installation. I’m curious why you chose tray and SWA instead of trunking and conduit? I would have thought it would have been quicker, cheaper and even more neater? It’s not a criticism of your workmanship, cant fault you there. Excellent videos by the way, especially for anyone’s who’s entering the trade and need some extra tuition. 10/10

As a Yankee used to NEC codes, when I tuned In to your chan. by mistake I felt like I walked into the wrong classroom. Reminds me to first time I was in England and watched a rugby tournament.

[WillHSmith]

I always use some flush cutters for cable ties, I had enough of slicing up my hand with those sharp bits!

[smilewithgourav]

Love your passion for the job ! Inspiring and so satisfying to watch a job well executed !
Cheers

[michaelcostello]

Great training . No Waffle just great clear information. Thanks

[stevebrant]

I use 12" ties generally and use a length of the tiewrap for spacing to the next tie. Saves counting holes.
Very nice install by the way.

Its not just electricians that don't know how to tidy up, i've had builders, chippies, plumbers, fridge engineers and sparks through the building I look after and none of them know how to tidy up properly. nice to see a job done well!

[charliechimples]

It’s nice to work in a brand new unit. Our factory is about 80 years old so running cables and trays you get absolutely covered in dust 🙈. We recently had a complete fire alarm system installed which cost £55 thousand pounds. The installers couldn’t get over how dirty they were getting. Great vid once again thanks for sharing. 🐵

Grip the excess of the cable ties with your pliers and twist them till it comes off, leaves a smooth finish.

[DaMuShErZ]

The nearness of this install makes me so happy 🤣. Hoping to find myself a position as an Electrical improver soon as i already have my level 3 and I'm booked in for my ecs in a couple weeks. My worry is nobody's employing with the current situation but i'd love to me doing stuff like this! 👌. Great job

[theblockchainhustle]

I agree with how you execute a project and also agree on how neatness (overall) simplifies an installation. Planning is always key.

Also, with cable ties, rather than using a blade, you can use side cutters. You will have to cut at an angle to get it right. However, there is a technique involved that will render a flush, non sharp aka tacky finish. Alternatively, get some Knipex Electronic Super Knips which cuts flush every time.

By the way, I'm really enjoying your videos and find it interesting....although, I'm not a sparky by trade! I'm a communications and security geek!

A nice cushy day on-site and in the shade, and a good job as always Artisans!

However, the idea of glanding off so many SWAs in one day makes me want to cry into my can of Thatcher's Gold 😂😂

[chickenandchip]

I hardly ever clean up so people know where I have been. Nice job👌

[pauljones]

Great job as always 😁. As well as ferrals id put heat shrink insead of tape to ID conductors and put Helmans sleeve on the sheath after stripping the conductors to seal the ends. Dont forget to install the cross bonding for the tray to with the earth braids. Keep the vids coming 👍😁

[leonblittle]

Nice job and for a nice change a clean newly built and un-molested blank page to install it all on, can't ask for more.

[jacooosthuizen]

Greetings from South Africa. Very neat install as always Jordan.
