Episode 3 – Wiring For And Installing A Switch

This episode covers the basics of installing an electrical switch.  I cover mounting boxes, drilling holes, running 12/2 romex from a power source to a new switch box.  From that switch box I install another piece of 12/2 romex to a light above.  After wiring and rough-in I install a decor single-pole 15a switch and a keyless fixture with a lightbulb.I talk briefly about how to rip out wires and twist joints, as well as how to test with a multimeter using continuity to see whether or not a bulb is bad.  This is the very beginning of a series from basic to advanced that will show apprentice electricians several different ways to install electrical materials and devices.Please check out the Electrician U Facebook page at www.facebook.com/theelectricianu and subscribe if you like these videos!**Disclaimer – These videos are for training purposes alone, all work done on electrical systems should be done by a licensed and insured electrical contractor.  If you are not an electrician, do not attempt any of the work you are seeing in these videos.**LISTEN TO AUDIO:http://electricianu.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Episode3-HowToWireForandInstallASwitch.mp3 Want to learn more about becoming an electrician or mastering the craft?
