GFCI's DON'T TRIP ON AMPERAGE. They literally have no way to detect amperage or overloads. They only trip on "electrical leakage"

Thank you! I was able to track down my breaker that would not reset problem to an outdoor GFI outlet that had gone bad. I installed a new heavy duty GFI and we're back on!

Saved me a lot of money probably. Thanks!!

Bought, almost installed by when we tried the magnetic letters I bought for the kids (and that stuck well to our cheap board,) they just fell off. The glass is too thick or the magnet not strong enough! Not sure what to get- it was pretty. Any thoughts for pretty board with great magnetic power, doesn't ghost and doesn't warp?

What are the odds that cleaner busts the glass liner of the tank?

Didn’t know there was afci plugs. Not popular in my town in Canada. All the new builds run afci breakers instead.

I'm assuming there is a list of tank sizes listed on the packaging of the turbo tank cleaner, for maximum effectiveness and compatibility purposes? And what are the symptoms of sediment build-up in the first place, some may ask? Well, in a gas water heater, you will hear rumbling and popping as the burner fires up, because the sediment acts a layer of insulation that allows water to seep through. The bottom of the tank heats to well beyond the boiling point of water causing continuous mini steam explosions for the duration of the heating cycle. This greatly increases energy costs and severely shortens the life of the heater. A symptom of sediment build up in an electric model is a burned out lower heating element

All inductive appliances should also be required to not produce extreme inductive kicks that trip GFCIs because it's a real possibility to introduce hazards in a quest to eliminate false positives by introducing false negatives that reduce safety to compensate for lazy, cheap designs of said appliances. Also, inductive appliances should be required to correct power factor up to a minimum of 90% for efficient use of energy. PS: When I was a kid, a double-stacked wire on a terminal of a receptacle fell off by repeated thermal expansion and started a fire in the wall of my bedroom. It self-extinguished because of other building codes but it kept going for about a minute until it tripped the conventional breaker. Higher-resistance or intermittent shorts that don't exceed the breaker's amperage rating can still start fires. Perhaps AFCI would've stopped it sooner had it existed.

Thank you so much. I am an engineer but i didn't get calculate this right myself 😅

If your heater is gas and more then a year old this is a complete waste of time unless you have fine sediment in the water. If you have a electric heater you can do a real good job by removing the lower element and sucking out the sediment with a shop vac. Replacing the anode rod every couple of years will be much more effictive.

6 years for us and last year clips wore out ( pain in the but because mower dies when they come unclipped). Now it doesn't come on sometimes ( third mow this year 2024). Will be getting a new one. Might be getting a self propelled, do some utube homework first 👍

A metal flail inside a water tank seems like a bad idea. How does it not damage the interior?

Great detailed video! Thanks

How did you get the color temperature of the unit? I don’t see it posted on the Eufy website.

Excellent video.

Good video. The only thing I'd add is for newbies to know that the male threaded drip irrigation(or commonly for other pvc uses)has course HOSE threads. There are ones with fine threads as well, whether female or male. I know, because I have a box full from years ago, when I didn't know better.

Bonjour siir 😂😂🔥🔥

If you are still under warranty why didn’t you just get EGO to fix the axle instead of drilling holes in your lawnmower?

As an engineer, I found this video really good on one point many miss, and poor on others. I was waiting to hear it claim a GFCI senses current to ground, and impressed that it spelled out difference between hot and neutral, while avoiding that common error. That of course is what enables a GFCI to be useful with 2 wire appliances common in kitchens and baths. How it does that could be compared to an Amprobe type meter, and why it reads near zero if looped over a power cord, versus a single conductor. Anyone familiar with CMRR in microphone and similar cables, or differential amplifiers in instrumentation, plus with basic physics of current and magnetism, could of course picture a deeper level of detail. Also think UTP and STP in telecom and data networking cables. AFCI's may detect some of the described faults, but their Code legislative justification is most certainly NOT for the basic building safety violations this video suggests. The solution to that is blacklilst the incompetent jerks pretending to be those electricians. Bedroom locations for AFCI's assume they're locations where old dried out and tiny SPT wire to lamps or small appliances with failure modes from broken insulation at pinch and bend points starts fires, as well as use of undersize extension cords, or crap receptacles (eg, Chinese outlet strips rated 15 amps with heaters, that catch fire as they age just slightly). Those cables may arc when failing, without a ground fault, and with far less current than a normal breaker trip. By comparison, 14 or 12 AWG permanent wiring rarely has those same faults, and is more of an issue in a kitchen or laundry feed. As to how or what AFCI's detect, "noise patterns" is a fairly decent answer, but absent going into electrical engineering details, it's sort of hard to give an accurate as well as simple answer. FCC does not itself certify Part 15 low power unintentional radiator conformance, but contrary to a couple of mentions in this video, that has nothing to do with the fire hazards AFCI's are meant to prevent. (Junk knockoff products illegally imported via ScAmazon may have other unrelated quality of manufacture defects, which are in fact relevant to AFCI detect parameters. ScAmazon blacklists customers who post factually accurate reviews critical of spec and legal frauds of those types, by it or its vendors. Its coerced distribution from their warehouses and logistics services place them in the position of physical commerce in such items it then pretends are only third party crooks, as if eBay shippers in China; if only Customs, the FBI, FTC, and FCC, did a serious investigation, it'd require shutting down all ScAmazon warehouses for a few years of detailed review of many items.)

What happens if you connet the power 120v to load side will it still be hot just will not interrupt?

Hey man Idk if you can answer this. But i bought a pen glass white board it's supposedly magnetic and none of my magnetic markets is sticking. The only magnets that are sticking are the ones that came with it. Is it too thick or did I put it on backwards?? This is the first thing I've ever installed by myself. Hope you can help ty!

Sorry great vid ,but u lost me at (soddor)

Can someone make a video showing how to wire multiple GFIC outlets line load

Excellent Video. Thank you just what I needed to be able to switch out to new black matte faucet for my new bathroom I’m renovating!

Very helpful. Thank you.

I recently acquired the LM2102SP-A model mower that came with 2 4Ah batteries, and have been very impressed with it, and with the EGO product line in general, so far. With the tools I've collected, I've ended up with 4 4Ah and 1 5Ah batteries, so I've had more than enough battery life for the yard work sessions I've put them through so far. I hope to get an EGO lawn tractor before long. I have a little over an acre to maintain.

Excellent video 👍

Thank you for this helpful and informative video!

I have so far the same thing on the top of the Model! But I am here just to learn how used it 😂

nicely done video. clear concise and complete.

Excellent video! Thanks

Does each ecoflow battery need an inverter? The images on their website shows batteries stacked 🤷🏻‍♂️

What if a person doesn't have a chiseled out area and it's it's just flat? Could I take the plate off the other part?

What GFCI brands do you recommend. Many of the Amazon brands have too many malfunction complaints. Thank you.

Doe moen have different cartridges? Mine is from the 2013 is timeframe

What is the best soap to wash dishes.

This is an interesting video. Thanks for making it. Just one thing, it's called caulk, not cock. The au is the same as the "a" in "all" or the "o" in "or" and there's an "l" in the word.

I have x2 f3800 and 1 expansion battery. My home is nearly 2000sqft and my system turns on at 2pm and doesn't turn off till the next morning around 6am. On Average I'm around 40% SOC before my rooftop solar starts charging the system again. I plan on purchasing a extra battery every year till I'm at 20,000 wh. which should keep my home running for a few days if my grid fails

Good Video. One thing to mention that is not advertised is that this is not rekeyable. I i like this lock. The finger Scan is a bit fussy at times.

It would be helpful if you slowed your presentation down when you were rekeying the keys you were careful to point out the new key, but then you did not tell whether you turned it clockwise or counterclockwise and then you did not tell if you remove the old key and which key you inserted and then you said “remove the key after you put in the key tool, but you didn’t tell her you rotated it removed it or pull it straight out and then when you finished everything you said it was re-keyed to the new key and that’s not the new key you were trying to key to the old key so all I’m saying is that your nomenclature Was not clear in the end. I think you broke it down as you started and said here’s the new key. I’m gonna put it in and turn it. 1/4 turn counterclockwise then I’m going to remove it and then I’m going to put in the old key I want it too, and I’m gonna turn it a certain direction and then I’m gonna put in the key to and then I’m gonna turn the key a certain direction and then remove it and now the lock is key to the old key. I know I’ve been verbose, but I’m trying to give an example of how you could describe each and every step because everything you said was perfectly clear until the last 15 seconds, and then it looked almost like a card trick because you couldn’t tell what you were doing, thank you for what you’ve done. I don’t mean to be critical. I offer this as help if you wanted to redo the end I’m engineer and fairly capable of doing things but I didn’t understand you’re closing. Thank you again.

I love it. Saying with all the sarcasim in the world. If you dont know what your doing i would highly recomend a electrician. Okay cool electricians are over paid and eventually they will get phased out because no one can afford them.

My garage door had the same exact issue as yours. Ordered and installed this fix in no time at all. Thank you so much!

Good stuff!

So if you have a ground wire to a GFI outlet it’s even better right?

Good explanation of the difference between GFCI, AFCI!

Does the code require new construction to have AFCI breaker or can an AFCI receptacle be placed on the first receptacle of the circuit?

Great explanation. Thank you ! Does the GFCI circuit require a regular (non-GFCI) breaker? Also how many outlets can be on 15 Amp GFCI-protected circuit?

Thank you, great informative video! This is information I will use.

I’m so fucking stupid… I’m 45 and didn’t know you’re supposed to cut the tip at an angle.. welp now I know why ever caulk project was chaotic

So I have a few outlets on the same breaker. A couple of the outlets, cause my lamp to go dim or flicker occasionally as of recent. I checked with a different lamp and it does the same thing across the different outlets. Could it be a bad breaker?
