Most of this is common sense, yet it still needs to be said because we live in a world where common sense is becoming more rare each day. Great video!

Some great habits to adopt! I've always pulled fairly hard on anything I've crimped - if it's going to fail, I want it to fail when I'm wiring it, not later when someone can get hurt or stranded. High resistance connections will overheat as well, melting that nice plastic insulation separating it from the other terminals... Same for always tighten what you've just stuck in the terminal and "make the rounds again" if you've done a lot of terminal wiring to ensure you haven't missed one.

7:20 - Fail. Yellow/green wire must be longer. By crash (pulled out power wire from terminal block) must be first disconnected the blue and brown wire and last wire yellow/green. Device must be till the last moment grounded!

Very nicely put together video and very entertaining as well. Thanks for posting this.

@13:28 The problem happens when you forgot to move the terminal back from 10A to V hole. If you try to measure the Voltage while the terminal is still in 10A hole then the fuse inside the tester will most probably blow (If 10A line is protected with fuse).

Mr. Dani que sorpresa verte de nuevo , como as estado , buen vídeo Dani , seguid así y esos temas son muy sutiles... seguid así , un abrazo , se te quiere y Saludos...

Correct way: buy this tool.

Excelente trabajo!! Es muy útil para superar malos hábitos y para formar a futuros profesionales. Te felicito. Un abrazo desde Buenos Aires,

Great video demonstrating right and wrong procedures. Thanks for uploading it.

You missed one thing when you showed that need to move the position of the test leads. Always move them back after you get an AMP (current) reading. I've blown fuses before on my meter because I tried to measure voltage and I forgot to move the lead back from the amp (current) position. After having to open the meter several times to replace the fuse, I got into a habit of always moving the test lead back after an AMP (current) reading. Other than that, good job on the video.

hello good video I would like to know what is the program you use to edit your videos

You made a bad mistake with your wiring with the cord. The earth has always to be a bit longer so that in case of rupture it is the last cable to loose connection.

Just me, but when I make or replace an extension cord end I bring my voltmeter with me, and set it to check continuity. It helps me wire the plugs proper and ensures the right voltage is going through the right screw port.

It may not be the best, but I use sometimes the cutting part of the pliers to crimp it. I don't cut it, I just make enough strength to crimp it. And it stays good. And as for the extension, it's not something that I like to do, but when I have to, I don't twist it like that, I wrap it on the other side, and weld it.

Grazie Daniele, semplici accorgimenti ma davvero importanti. 😊😊😊😘

I heard an expression once that I really like... "Once you let the smoke out, hit can't put it back in."

Hi Daniele Tartaglia, Great video you have produced here, I really enjoyed it, great content. I particularly enjoyed where you made so easy for non technical persons to understand. I have come across or seen those stupid mistakes. I felt it was really informative and you really brought the point across well. I am really interested in electrical engineering. I have had a career in engineering for over 28 years from everything from starting as a mechanics assistant moving across to be a electrician to now a Project Manager. I enjoy sharing my skills and knowledge as well with others like yourself. I have provided training to others and had apprentices work with me to kick start there careers. Many thanks, Great job.

Ciai Daniele, come sempre i tuoi sono video professionali, il tempo che dedichi al montaggio e alla realizzazione probabilmente non a prezzo, da te imparo molto e miglioro ogni volta i miei strumenti grazie a i tuoi suggerimenti.. Grazie e buona giornata

Your videos are very informative and helpful to people like me. More power!

Daniele, your tips with respect to electrical wiring and connectors is really appreciated, nice way to follow the tips, there is going to be no electric hazard in a life time. Thanks a lot for making this worth like video.

Just a comment on sin #1. I absolutely agree that is shoddy work and I would never allow or do it. However reducing the strand count for 1/2 an inch does not ELECTRICALLY reduce a 16ga wire to say 23ga. Mechanically, yes, but not resistance wise. Remember the resistance across the wire is distributed along it's length. So 1/2 inch is not going to have any significant difference. Look and many large electric motors and transformers. The internal wiring is often a wire gauge or more below the rated current for the same reason. That undersized wire is less than a foot in length. Again I am not condoning the use of undersized terminals on wires. That's hack work plain and simple. But I don't see it as an over current concern.

Parabéns, obrigado por postar,q Deus continue abençoando seu canal

Excelente informe !!! Saludos desde Argentina

Regarding number 5: You could also change the plug on the cable to your device to a compatible; this is often quite a bit cheaper than an adapter and you reduce the risk og it comming apart. Where I live, in the kitchen alone there is often 3 or more devices using 230 Volts with the "schuko" plug when delivered.

number 2 can be also done correctly by soldering the wires to the terminals. just make sure to solder correctly

those are not errors or mistakes, but just lack of a proper tools

One error more: cable colours must be continue. Red with red, blue with blue and yellow/green with yellow/green. Sorry, i don't much know about english.

5.30 - where did you buy this stripper from? Great video thank you.

No pasa nada si tenés el multímetro en corriente y las puntas en tensión, ya que posee extremadamente alta impedancia de entrada. El problema es cuando tenés la medición en tensión y las puntas en corriente, ahí tenés una impedancia interna que tiende a cero y haces un cortocircuito. Además en 15:34 dices que está mal pero al principio del vídeo dices que está bien.

I remember making a big mistake on a multimeter where I tried to measure 220v but then the red probe was still connected the 10A port of the multimeter. The fuse on the meter blew up and the probes got melted! Will never forget that day, which is a good thing.

Prolunga = extention cord differenziale = main breaker magnetotermico = breaker relè = relay terminali = wire ferruls cavi singoli (fili) = wires fili all'interno di un cavo = conductors cavo contenente altri cavi = cable

6:53 You should also shorten live and neutral wires to leave the ground wire the longest one, then In case of tripping over the cable, the live and neutral wires will be pulled out before the ground wire, reducing the risk of electric shock.

VERY very good video. I suggest to check the text at 7:30, because it´s confusing, appears like if the ground wire is present the differential switch will not work. best regards!

The correct title shoud be "electrical hobbyist problem, for not technical people"

7:20 is better make the earth (yellow-green) wire longer than other

Loved your lights at the back drop.. Could you teach how to make one..?

Video molto utile educativo, soprattutto per chi fa le cose come si dice più volgarmente a pene di segugio Ps aspettiamo ancora le specifiche nel dettaglio dell'alimentatore da banco regolabile costruito partendo da un vecchio alimentatore di un PC XD

stupid mistake #11: buy cheap ass tools from banggood

Great Video! TKS

"A loose clamp in the power circuit could cause a fire." "A too loose clamp could cause a fire." "A LOOSE CLAMP IN THE POWER CIRCUIT COULD CAUSE A FIRE" loose clamp make circuit go fire. got it.

Habla muy pocito Español me amigo.. I just want to say thanks for all you do, this was a good one!

Now I understand why British plugs are the best...

The meter leads which you showed is wrong - if the meter is connected in series (to measure current) and test leads are in the voltage position, nothing happens except reading the terminal voltage since while measuring voltage multimeter has a very large resistance and a very minute current flows through the multimeter. It is the other way around which damages the multimeter and can cause a fire, when you keep the test leads in the current measuring position and try to test the voltage by just jamming the test leads into a positive and negative of the outlet, in this case the current measuring position offers very low resistance and thus a very high current flows through the meter, this if not limited can fry your meter and cause fire, but now a days good meters have a protection built in it, against this. Get your facts straight.

Ottimo con regole ben precise il lavoro e la sicurezza migliorano. Sempre un ottimo instruttore complimenti.

first example is manipulation. in the first case, when the car cut off part of the veins, it inserted the remaining veins unfinished and pressed the wire. that's why when he bent it 90 degrees he got out. if the author had inserted the wire all the way, nothing would have come out.

Personally, I prefer fork terminals for contactors. Always use an "in calibration" quality crimp tool and tighten the fastener to the required torque with a calibrated torque screwdriver. Normally around 2 to 3Nm.

To me, these all seem like common sense but I have crimped wires with regular pliers many times because it was the only thing available. I learned how to make it work but using the right tool is much faster and way easier. Two others I would add is don't cut the ground pin off a plug to make it fit an ungrounded socket. And...don't try to test amps on a circuit that is more than 10A.

In my line of work I will go in to install Alarm Systems, CCTV, Audio and TVs and I always see the horror from what the customer has done and even worse what other Techs have done.

Bravo! Visto che tiri fuori l'argomento pinza crimpatrice per puntalini e fast-on, hai qualcosa da consigliare per connettori molex mini-fit ed amphenol fci per hobbysti che hanno progetti elettronici e collegamenti da fare?

6:27 or just fill the hole for the ground pin so when you want to plug sth that requires ground you realise, that it is not the extension you are looking for

procedure no2 pliers can be used this is how its done without a crimper first do it frist sideways then top and bottom the cutter side of the pliers can be used but be carefull with the pressure applied so as to avoid cutting the cable or the connector or just solder it it works well than crimps

It is not said enough; most people think only a short can cause electrical fires, but a bad connection (resistance in the contact) can do just as well. In the worst case scenario the amount of power dissipated in the few square millimetre of the bad contact is half of the power connected to the connection. So if a 2000W heater is connected on a loose screw, in the worst case 1000W can be dissipated in that screw, and that is A LOT of heat for such a small piece of metal (Worst case: resistance of load = resistance of bad contact, so a 50/50 divide of power)

One mistake possibly not mentioned below (in English), is leaving the probes in the current terminals when you have made your current measurement, and you then switch back to read a voltage and fail to notice the probes in the wrong sockets. An easy error to make if you are in a hurry.

Great video 🤝

Definitely a lot better editing than the soldering mistakes video, the emojis were annoying as heck. Still some room for improvement of course but good tips, albeit I do disagree with making splices with electrical tape, there are some good procedures for splices without solder or crimping terminals (the one I know the most is the Western Union/Lineman splice), so it's definitely possible to do it right.

Mr,danile can you make DIY signal booster 4g LTE,,?

I had a single bad cable (short in length ground wire - not screwed properly) in a long run of different outlets and panels, and when i touched my pc case metal and a metal pipe nearby i would get funny little shocks(thankfully) .. The potential from case to ground was 80Vac(measured with a multimeter) but it was probably normal leakage from capacitors in the PSU accumulating as charge on the metal case. Cable was cut from 1 end and receptacle was replaced with another one. Lesson learned. Don't do things in a hurry and be fully concetrated. Thankfully the energy was low and no esd damage to pc.

Mil Spec allows 10% reduction in conductor area at the crimp. You can cut off 10% of copper strands to fit.

Very good demonstration with wrong and correct procedure.Thanks

Excelente video. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

I would always prefer soldering over crimping or twisting

7:10 In my opinion thats still wrong. You should always leave the Protective conductor (ground) a Bit longer then the live and neutral Wire (Only with flexible wires) . So when you pull to hard on the cord the ground wire tears of last.

what i have to do when i don't have grounded?

As a full time PAT tester, I see these mistakes all the time. I spend most of my time having to correct other peoples shoddy work

I've done all of these and am still here, just. I must be lucky. I wonder why I never win the lottery, though?

13:33 I don't forget it. I forget return it back after... after which I measure the voltage of 220 volts :-) It looks very funny.

Always crimp ferrules multiple times . Otherwise wire may slip out of ferrule.

Nice video! Ask me please what a tool with cutting blade you show in this video for striping power cable? I never see this in our shops...

L'errore 3, oltre a quello specificato nel video, consiste nel non rispettare il codice dei colori ed entrare con un cavo azzurro (che indica il neutro) e uscire con un cavo marrone (che indica una fase)

I don't even know anything of electric, but I like sooo much this videos xD

9:50. There should be 2 crimps, not 1 10:25. NEVER EVER TWIST WIRES ON A SCREWED CONNECTION

thank you for advertising... I mean Demonstrating

Imagine what happened if he and ElectroBOOM met in a pub

Great Video, Thank You.

Il est interdit (par la NFC-1500) d'utiliser des fils souples (multi-brins) pour réaliser une installation définitive de puissance. De plus, en milieu humide, le fait d'ajouter un oeillet de cuivre étamé crée un couple qui détruira la connexion à terme. Le mono brin est à raccorder directement sans intermédiaire.

Thank you gratefully. All of this advice are important, and cause of fire, then ignored. Where are you from? Too many sockets and plugs in one video)

TOTALMENTE DE ACUERDO Y POR DESGRACIA TODOS LOS EJEMPLOS, QUE HA CITADO SON MUY CORRIENTES. Por cierto, estoy suscrito a su canal, por muy útil, interesante y correcto. Gracias por su canal, continúe por muchos años

I will use a 5m strip Led (red or orange) to have a warning light in case we encounter a problem with the car and I want to connect them to the blinker warning (signal lamp), does the cables that come to the signal lamps carry the load? how many mm cables should I use if it doesn't carry? And if the cable from the signal lamps will be enough where the lamps are installed (hear the bulb is installed) from where I received led' e bağlayacağım cable should be how many mm? Cable length will be 10 or 15 meters LED will be 5 meters. Maybe even a small possibility 7 meters Led ' I can also plug. (I'm going to do the operation right and left to the back and front). I'm sorry I wrote so long.

Ciao, nell‘esempio della spina 10/16A max non credo il punto sia guardare solo sulla spina. La corrente utilizzata dal carico non è scritta sulla spina. Bisognerebbe controllare la targhetta del dispositivo collegato. Inoltre se la presa è „piccola“, in teoria è da 10A per cui la protezione a monte è da 10A. Giusto ?

Great job and video

Don't get tangled in your desires..loose wires cause fires. If you're building something that Line power is going through. Make sure it's not between you and the door when you turn it on. That's the most important thing.

Whilst I think it's fantastic to alert others to incorrect practices it does annoy when you state the, "correct way" which isn't necessarily true. Yes terminals should be tightened adequately but your method using a hand screw driver can not deliver the correct tightening torque as specified by the manufacturer. What the vast majority of people fail to realise is a overtightened connection can sometimes be more destructive than a undertightened one. And as others have said the earthing conductor should always be longer on leads so as to be last to disconnect under strain. Oh and when using crimps of any sort conductors shouldn't be twisted tight.

Perfectly video.

This guy is Italian! See the plug type

Good! And how to make a T-shaped splitter of a 3-core cable?

Ciao Daniele,bel video educativo.Per quanto riguarda l'errore 9,cioe collegare una schuko a una presa da 10 ampere,potremo anche dire che ormai è abitudine usare i cavi schuko per utilizzatori come televisori o PC che assorbono molto meno di 2200 w.Un televisore o un monitor che assorbono 100 watt,quindi meno di 0,5 ampere,però sono dotati di cavo con spina schuko non creano problemi a una presa da 10 A.,del resto la ciabatta a cui hai collegato la presa schuko ha un carico massimo di poco piu' di 10 A.

8:44 Ha! That's what she said! Okay I'm gonna go..

Ciao Daniele, Anche questo video è ben realizzato e utile, come è nel tuo stile. piccole precisazioni: nell'errore 4 sulle prolunghe, l'errore più grave è usare, con un cavo a due poli, terminazioni con polo e alveoli centrali, la prolunga, in questo caso, sarebbe utilizzabile solo con le apparecchiature in doppio isolamento, che non hanno di fabbrica il polo centrale sulle loro spine. Nell'errore numero 8, molto più grave è tentare una misura di tensione con i cavi collegato all'entrata in corrente. Se cerchi di misurare una corrente con i cavi attestati alla presa della tensione, grazie all'alta impedenza del tester potresti non veder funzionare il circuito; e nel caso otterresti una lettura sbagliata; la cosa è fuorviante soprattutto se stai cercando un guasto ma finisce li e soprattutto se prima della misura il circuito in esame funzionava, ti accorgi dell'errore. Ma se misuri una tensione con i cavi sull'entrata di corrente (che solitamente presentano una resistenza bassissima, quasi un cortocircuito) ottieni di mettere in cortocircuito il "generatore di corrente/tensione" sotto esame con un effetto quasi sicuramente disastroso per il tester e per l'operatore. Se si tratta di un alimentatore con protezione in corrente attiva e ben calibrata va tutto bene; ma se stai misurando sulla rete o controllando la tensione ai capi di una batteria per auto, ti posso assicurare che ben che ti vada devi cambiare tester! Ciao e ai prossimi video :-)

Я так смотрю без заземления ты и жить боишься, даже в переноску его воткнул

great videos, it proper wiring technics

Sei un ottimo youtuber

Ground is so damn important man, but I live in a country where almost every single household doesn't have ground. So many electrical appliances have burnt out over the years, not to mention how dangerous it is for us. I know the dangers of not having ground, and it's always fucking freaky when you go to touch something and not know if it's electrically chargered or not.

Mistake +1: Never EVER make a roll of wire around the measuring pin... Use proper clips at the end of measuring lines instead.

13:13 that's also a mistake

Thank you very much safety 100 .👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️ Love from India.

Thanks This clip should be seen by young DIY electricians ... to keep it safe Electricity is dangerous for creating fires and electrocution at 5:35 in the clip you are using a tool to strip the outer cable. what is the name of brand of the tool ..is there a link ? or is this a DIY

The 6th, I use Wago lol

I am rather gutted you never pointed out that the insulation on the connectors and ferrules determines the wire size's and not the wire color, (you kind of shown this in number 4 but a quick note would have made this very clear. great information though.
