Now check out the June 2024 highlights below!
One of the most popular Everyday Electrician video this month had almost 8,500 views across our social media platforms! In it, Trevor takes us inside a 1950’s feed mill. The loader is parked in the alley during winter and plugged in to stay warm. Upon entering, a conduit was pinched, shorting the wires. The result was a mysterious (and rather gross!) substance falling down — it’s a mixture of molasses and micro additives for cattle feed.
You can also view the video on TikTok (where it got the most total views) and YouTube.
Another popular video from Trevor in June was this one, explaining why it's so important to be considerate of other installers when working on a job site. When you get a service call, sometimes you have to unfortunately clean up after the installers who came before you. In this case, Trevor shows how a previous electrician had already removed a motor and installed a new one but left the enclosure hanging, so Trevor had to fix it. He says that although the quick way is often fine, but it’s worth taking the time to think about the person working on the site after you.
The last video we're highlighting from June is a funny job-site tale that Trevor shares. Imagine getting this strange service call! Trevor describes this “cart before the horse” sort of story about a customer that removed a shed… but kept the lighting. Coincidentally, the lighting was useful throughout the entirety of the project.
