      @@MadElectrician Shouldn't the wire be 4 gauge then? Personally, I'd be more comfortable with a 50 amp breaker and from what I understand, no EV is going to draw close to that much current anyway.

    • @surferdude642
      @surferdude642 День тому

      ​@@MadElectricianI understand the 1.25 multiplier and how you arrived at the 60 amp breaker. I did some research and your charger I believe is rated for 48 amps and THWN wire is apparently rated for 65 amps, so you are correct. My concern is using wire nuts for this much current allowance. I would prefer using terminal blocks rated for 60 amps for the hot wires.

  • @surferdude642
    @surferdude642 2 дні тому

    I would prefer to have the holster and coiled cable mounted inside the garage. The way it's currently mounted it will interfere with the garage door when the charger is not in use, plus it's subject to weather and tampering. You could have mounted it on the front to eliminate garage door interference, but the weather and possible tampering issues would still exist, and it could be a bit unsightly. Mounting it inside means that you have to open the garage door to use it, but it's a better option imo since opening it is entering a code and pushing a button. The only other nitpick is that the conduit body is not really fastened where it enters the wall. A strap near that end could resolve that issue. Overall, it still looks pretty well done.

    I am 48 years old and this video and the comments has given me another reason as to why I need to move forward with my decision of become an electrician. As a kid, I didn't do well in school, and because of that, FAILING is my greatest fear. I also think about what would happen If never overcame that fear, the results could be worse, and that's living the rest of my life in regret. so I thank you for this video that literally found me. 👊😎

    I have a pretty secure and stable government job right now, but I don’t get paid what I want. I started the process of applying for an apprenticeship in Oregon and I’m concerned that the apprenticeship program won’t provide stable income. Is there a way to know that you will be getting 40 hours a week while being an apprentice? Or should I just stay in my current job?

    I retired from the IBEW, and from my experience, the international side of it was only looking out for themselves. They are only concerned with making sure that you're paying your dues, of which the local gets $1 to $2. The rest goes to the international. And even if work is slow and guys aren't working, they'll insist that the hall takes on a new class just so they can keep getting their money, they don't care about the local. If it wasn't for my local, I wouldn't have had really any kind of retirement pension to speak of. I retired at 59 1/2 and was encouraged to keep paying dues until my 65th birthday just so I could get $100, and that's before taxes, each month. I'm not saying not to join the union. Just don't expect much from the international.

But most utilities companies are looking for lineman and I want to become a indoor electrician ( focus on residential, commercial, and solar) would it effect the out come if I start as a lineman or is there a specific apprenticeship I should start off first?

    • @MadElectrician
      @MadElectrician 8 днів тому

      It’s a little weird for sure. It’s at my house though, not somebody else’s. This is also for charging a car in the driveway, not in my garage. The best place to mount the charger was in the garage (no good spaces anywhere outside my garage). There was also a gap under my garage door which this cord has no affect of. At the end of the day, this made the most sense to me for my situation. It’s been over 6 months of it being like this with no issues and no marks or anything on the cable. I also saw somebody else in my neighborhood do the same thing and it worked great for him with no issues. I can always put the cord holster in the garage if I ever want to move it in the future.

In the past I’ve been ridiculed for not being better at that type of stuff, although I have got better at it over time.
