Now that was exactly what I have been looking for. I've seen dozens of videos on this topic and no one has explained it so perfectly and concisely. Thank you SO MUCH!!

Gosh...THANKS For The THOROUGH Video! Finally, someone who gives a sense-able, easy to understand, detailed video for anyone to gain the confidence to know they're doing the project correctly.

Great, simple, fast, quick, not too much talking, straight to the point!

[darvongoonie]

Short but very detail. Straight to the point.

[KentausmcO]

That was very simple and your instructions were clear, thank you

Thank you for explaining it in a professional manner. I’ve seen videos where the “instructors” were trying to be funny and we all know that electricity is nothing to play with. Great job.

I literally spent 2 hours or more trying to find answers about the ground wire when doing multiple outlets. No video had a straight forward answer like yours. Thank you

THIS WAS SUCH A HELPFUL TUTORIAL ON HOW TO PROPERLY WIRE AN ELECTRICAL OUTLET. THANK YOU.

[chrisryan]

These kind of videos are very helpful. Basic homeowner fix videos. Thank you.

I've watched several videos today on this topic and this one might be the most clear and comprehensive.

I learned in 5 minutes what my teacher failed to teach us in a week. You're an incredible teacher!

I have plenty of DIY electrical experience and worked 20 years as an electrical panel assembler. Watched your video anyway and found it very informative and well articulated. Not a fan of back stabbing switches or outlets, prone to failure. Going to check out your channel and may Subscribe. Thanks for posting.

Im a trade student and this is helping me study. Simple and straight forward. Thank you!!

[KaioStryker]

Probably the best video on the net. I wanted to see how to wire the outlet that goes back to the breaker.

[charlesthomas]

Another wiring guide showed two grounds on a single screw for a metal outlet box. I thought that was odd and came across your video. Thanks for explaining how to pigtail a ground.

[mansari]

Great - very simple demonstration and explained critical ground connection. Thanks to HandyDadTV 👍👏

[mhernandezae]

Thank you for the excellent diagrams with easy to fallow directions.
Total life saver.

Your video saves me a lot for home renovation

[tobeamiss]

Thank you. I'm also wiring a camper on my own and didn't know how I was going to attach 2 grounds to the same screw. Thank you for this!
