because this is a video for people learning how to work with electrical related devices........you might want to say turn off the breaker first thing..........there are some dumb people out there

shouldnt use a knife to cut the wire. its a bit dodgy...... not acceptable on sites here youd be booted off

I use the Channellock wire stripper, you can strip and loop the wire with one tool.

@hitachi088 Are you kidding me? Tape a video with no sound track and support it with annotations. We have a saying here in the USA: Excuses are reason for failure.

@AsktheBuilder not everyone speak English fluently like you do . it is why we don't want to spam youtube by posting bad quality video with a presentator that can't be understood by youtube viewers .

God you're rough! Get a pair of side-snips twist them into the end of the cable then pull back the earth wire to strip the outer insulation off - simples! :-) Nice hair though, and so well-mannered in your replies!

@Ryans943 Thanks for the suggestion. I went to your channel and there are no videos there at all. Also there's no profile information to show who your are or what you do. This would be a great opportunity for *you* to tape a simple video showing the use of the screwdrivers. Think about that from now on. When you see something missing in a video, you share your knowledge with us in a video, not comments.

you should also talk about using VDE safe screwdrivers, incase the breaker gets turned back on by some idiot whilst you are working on it,

Good video - the only problem I have is that this doesn't actually explain the hookups. I would like to make sure I'm hooking up the correct wires to the correct part of the outlet!

Not comfortable outlets have americans. Not easy to install, also hot-wire-pole parts are stripped. In Europe, I install the outlets only putting stripped wire to terminal and can do it even under voltage (if I have insulated pliers) cause european outlets are insulated. But, in America outlets are clumsy even for electricians.
