Brings back memories of bending iron and copper pipes throughout a whole building. If only the pipe material was made like that really thin wiring stuff with the melty plastic covering that goes around all sorts of corners 👍

good stuff, especially using a magnetic digital angle finder. Don't understand why people aren't using them more to get the bends spot on. Got a couple of tips to share. . . For cutting Class 4 conduit, you can use a little adjustable pipe cutter (Screwfix 71782) to cut the pipe. Not what it's meant for, but works really well. Best is to snap the thing on the conduit, hold with one hand and rotate the pipe around. Nice square, neat cuts each time with only a little bit of cleaning up with a file. These little pipe cutters also work really well when you have to cut existing conduit with wires inside without damaging them. For when marking out trunking to fit conduit in there, put a maker pen in a stuffing gland, put the stuffing gland into a coupler, put the coupler on the end of a scrap bit of conduit, put a spacer saddle near the coupler. From there, just put the whole thing against the wall and mark up where the hole is to be drilled with the marker. Carry on.

Great video. Are you planning on doing video of a bridge over bigger items please??

Good video mark. Would be good to have a section done in a clear plastic or perspex so you could see the singles in there. I enjoyed the video.

We never really crossed over conduit but would tend to put an adaptable box in , it made more work obviously but working with council engineers etc they tended to take a bit of a dime view on such methods . Asking is the bend somewhere to hang your coat 😂. But I’m sure those days are long gone , I would have definitely loved that angle measure device . And as for working between to fixed points with bends, I just cut the conduit slightly longer and cut it to fit when I was happy with the bend . All that faffing about making something fit with one set length , just to save Two bobs of material . 😂. Still it’s nice to know people are getting the knowledge of working with conduit , in many ways it just can’t be beaten in certain applications . Well done in all you do to promote the industry , and the way you impart your knowledge onto the next generation of electricians . Best wishes and kind regards 😀👍👍👍

I used the methods shown by the e-fixx team to help with several installs using stainless steel conduit (I work in an industrial food production setting), bearing in mind the cost of stainless, the conduit and all the accessories, I really do need to get it right first time, which I did thanks to e-fixx. Trying to bend the conduit I had to add about a 1.5 meter length of pipe to the bending arm for more leverage and was still hanging off it, bouncing as well lol (we won't go into threading the bloody stuff), but oh my word, the satisfaction of getting it right and the look of it on the wall, totally worth all the effort.

Thanks mark I’ve got a digital gauge that will make bubble sets easier for me 👊

Good demonstration 👍

It would be great if u can demonstrate how you actually get your marks on the former in the first place.

The bender is expensive for low usage. Quite fancy the manual ones the Americans seem to use (you use them against the floor, and they have a foot plate), but can't make my mind up on whether they fit our conduit. They tend to be 3/4 and 1 inch.... Not sure if that works for us. So much more affordable under £100! Klein 56104) Also, with complex bends in copper, I tend to run a pencil 'seam' down the length to help to keep bends co-planar. I have a manual 15/22 bender - shame you can't get the former for 20mm for these. I tried 20mm conduit using the 22m former, but the corner came out a bit flattened, as you might expect.

How do you set the conduit in the bender at the exact center?

I'm only used to bending copper pipe. This is handy. Remember to like and subscribe viewers.

4:28 do you mean flanged couplers?
