“Woliammd”

This is a terrible, terrible video. Putting the wire around the screw clockwise like that causes the electricity to flow the wrong direction. Remember a classic saying my RV teacher once told me, “wire on ‘left’ is a move most deft, but a wire done ‘right’ is actually wrong.” This handy mnemonic is called the “woliammd,” all electricians are taught this in first year electric school.

Stripping back too little can cause the wires not to be secured properly. Too much can cause the circuit to trip if wires touched inside the box. It’s also a good practice to install your hooks in the same direction as the screw tightening down. ⚡️ . . . #worldofelectricians #electrician #electricianlife #electrical #electricallife #sparky #sparkylife #tradesmen #tradelife #bluecollar #bluecollarlife #bluecollarbrotherhood #electricity #electricalcontractor #contractor #generalcontractor #builder #residential #diy #diyprojects #homeprojects #howto #apprentice #journeyman #tennessee #construction #constructionlife
