Wiring Our House (DIY House Wiring!)

The next step of our build is running all the wiring. we have to have the electrical roughes in as well as the plumbing before we can get it inspected.

The hardest part about running the electrical was figuring out how to connect all the lights and swtches together. otherwise it was pretty easy.

We ran most of the wire through the crawlspace to keep from drilling too many holes in our walls.

Below is a link to the electrical refference guide we are using!

Why you didn’t put black botón conectores in the bar box

May I ask is there a certain specific height need to be running wire thru the stud? Like 18 inches above the the floor for the outlet, and 4 ft for the switches?
thanks in advance

At 4 mins and on, you connect outlets to each other via wire w/ holes bout 20" up.
Im doing exterior walls, wondering if I can drill hole bout 1" up off bottom plate and run wire on bottom plate in center.
Then I dont have to measure and cut insulation. Moisture barrier on insul would be nice not to cut.

I don’t see you using spool how did you not have twisted wires?
2nd question how did you determine how much wire you need
I have 900sqf basement I need to wire I hate to make constant runs to Home Depot

[didequen]

i wish i were able to run wires like you. I bought a home already built. The damn electrician just chained a bunch of outlets into a 15A line. I can barely use anything and it strips every time i add more equipment.

Does t every appliance need to be on there own circuit?

[chengyiangloh]

Hi sir, may I know is it the yellow colour with marking is wire? What's the name it called?

[nachoelias]

Please, could you tell me the specific name of the wire?
Down here in Patagonia we still use oeange pipes, curves and conectors...yours is much faster!

Do you have to get the Electrical and plumbing inspected???

[donmoore]

You shouldn't place the hole for your cable near the edge of the bottom or top plate - or you will need to install metal safety blocking plates to prevent drywall screws from damaging the cable. A couple of your holes were within a half inch of the edge. You should shoot for the middle of the plate.

What about if I run the supply line to the light and come off to the outlets from there? Can I do that or do I need a junction box?
