Electric Pro Academy - Real Skills to make real money.

Synopsis:
Joel walks through how a master electrician navigates and organizes a busy 2-gang electrical box.

In this particular case, Joel is installing 2 single pole switches for an over-sink light & the garbage disposal. He’ll cover combining ground wires by crimping to save space, pre-twisting and capping wires in a wire nut, clearing paint or primer off of wire ends, “pigtailing” one hot wire for 2 hot feeds, & packing & covering an electrical box. Laced within the technical instruction are recommendations and points of professionalism employed daily by Jefferson Electric masters, journeymen, & apprentices.
