hole saw, voltage tester, screwdriver, wire strippersI’m a master electrician, sometimes even the easy things are hard. When I was an apprentice, I was taught to not use a box(which is what happened in this video).
So I am installing an electrical box and showing the proper way to install an outside light fixture on a house. It’s not easy to hole saw like I showed but with a little practice you can get there. Note that these pancake boxes like shown are only rated for 1 wire so if you have 2 or more you will need to use a round cut in box. These small simple tasks are fun but there is a lot that can be overlooked for even professionals, hope this video helps someone out there…
