Electrical Power From Grid To Home
Electric Pro Academy - Real Skills to make real money.
Synopsis:
Not sure what your electrical meter is, or perhaps where it came from? The average person does not have their own personal solar array or power supply, so they must ultimately get power from their local utility. Many homeowners might not know what goes on past their panel, so in this video Joel will walk through the various important components outside the home that are responsible for daily electricity.

The 7 Deadly Sins of Workspace Management
Electric Pro Academy - Real Skills to make real money.
Synopsis:
The beauty and draw of the electrical trade is the creation of a new, ultra-efficient highway of energy in a home. The problem with this creation is the destruction that must inevitably go hand-in-hand: Wire must be cut and stripped in little bits, wood framing must be drilled or cut, and parts and packaging need to be managed and disposed of. A proud tradesman might think that he is only responsible for the masterful creation process, but a humble tradesman takes responsibility for it all.
In this video, Joel elaborates on what every Jefferson Electric master, journeyman, and apprentice is expected to contribute to an orderly and respectable work atmosphere, and the tasks and mentalities associated with those who do it well and those who don’t.

Temporary Power During New Construction
Electric Pro Academy - Real Skills to make real money.
Synopsis:
If electricians are putting in the power, where do THEY get the power to charge tools, light their workspace, or heat the jobsite? While Jefferson Electric actually achieves most of these ends through batteries and forethought, there are times when electricity is needed on-site. In this video Joel will show how to get temporary power during new construction and who is responsible for its installation, upkeep, & cost.

Running Wire Inside Your Home
Electric Pro Academy - Real Skills to make real money.
Synopsis:
Though theoretically electrical circuits require a circular design, in a home wiring situation it is often more helpful to think of them as a tree. Having wired the home runs (the tree trunk) in our last video, Joel now shows how the power is distributed in the master bedroom (one branch). DIYers may find this helpful if running their own wire or troubleshooting apparent power issues in specific areas in the house. Electrical apprentices may benefit if assigned to running wire in one or several branch circuits in a home while keeping track of hot feeds & wire paths. The technical instruction is developed from the many hours of expertise of Jefferson Electric masters & journeymen.

Electric Pro Academy - Real Skills to make real money.
Synopsis:
One of the primary jobs of an electrician is wire selection. Insufficient wire threatens heat-related failure and excessive wire threatens inflexibility and financial burdening to the business & customer. In this video, Joel has rounded up a warehouse-worth of wire and wire connectors to share his experience with each, including naming systems, code references, relevant slang terms, & best practices employed daily by Jefferson Electric masters, journeymen, & apprentices.

Electrical Home Runs
Electric Pro Academy - Real Skills to make real money.
Synopsis:
The term “Home Run” has a definition that might get lost on sports fans if they are not familiar with electrical jargon. To an electrician, the home run is the hot feed between the electrical panel and each room/circuit in a home. While home runs mostly follow the same rules of running wire that apply throughout the house, there are a couple additional things to keep in mind. In this video, Joel will give 3 major considerations for running home runs and give a glimpse into how things look from the panel.
Not only will we show the technical details of the home runs process, but we’ll also sprinkle in some points of professionalism employed daily by Jefferson Electric masters, journeymen, & apprentices to give you pro-level confidence.

7 Power Tools Every Electrician Needs
Electric Pro Academy - Real skills to make real money.
Synopsis:
A bad workman blames his tools...but a good one thanks them! Without trying to impoverish young tradesmen, we’ve compiled a shortlist of power tools that will likely be in use too often on the jobsite to borrow from your co-workers. Investing in quality tools will help you enjoy your job more and display dedication to your craft to your customers & supervisors. Electricians are, by no means, only working with wire throughout the day! There are a number of tools in our list that may surprise you for their rough-work capabilities. It’s our hope that this list helps you maximize your time, energy, and attention on the job site toward an end product you can be proud of.
While Joel & Jefferson Electric are not presently affiliated with any one brand, we are showing Dewalt tools in this video for simplicity’s sake. While we don’t have a stake in which brand you choose, it is generally a good idea to stick to one brand for battery compatibility reasons, so we encourage you to do your research before you make your first major purchase. Don’t hesitate to reach out in the comments for other brand & tool suggestions; our Jefferson teammates use tools from many ecosystems and would be happy to share their firsthand experience with you.

10 Basic Electrical Safety Tips
Electric Pro Academy - Real Skills to make real money.
Synopsis:
At Electric Pro Academy, we’d like safety to be about keeping you safe, not protecting a corporation’s reputation. While there are lots of good and true resources regarding safety, we think we can boil it down to just 10 memorable rules. This list is not OSHA approved, but is hopefully a digestible resource to have in the back of your mind while on the job site.
This list was compiled by our resident master electrician and life-long tradesman Joel Walsman. Its emphasis is to preserve the creative art of the trades while minimizing the potentially destructive consequences of tool misuse, human error, and personal carelessness. We hope it allows you to enjoy working with your hands for many years.

2 Simple Electrical Job Workflow Problems To Avoid
Electric Pro Academy - Real Skills to make real money.
Synopsis:
Joel had a long day today thanks to a scrambled workflow. Electricians serve an important role in outfitting wiring behind the walls at the “Rough-In”, but make an even greater statement at the “Finish Out”, where wallplates and other finishes are attached to their previous work. As a business, electricians need to schedule the Rough-In & Finish-Out around other contracted work, like painting, so that the hidden work can be done efficiently and the outlet devices on display aren’t tainted after being installed.

In this video, Joel points out that this is not the only place where relationships can become leverage, and if we truly value relationships, we need to be vigilant to protect and honor them as such.

Closet Electrical - Code Minimum

Closets are normally small, filled with insulating materials (all those clothes!), and directly attached to living spaces. With all this in mind, it is wise to take a few precautions in the electrical wiring and lighting to protect against accidents. Enclosed lighting doesn’t just improve the aesthetic sense of space, but also protects against hit and accidental breakage.

Hallway and Stairway Electrical - Code Minimum
Electric Pro Academy - Real Skills to make real money.
Synopsis:
Joel briefly moves upstairs to check for proper hallway receptacle spacing and stairway lighting control. Hallways are not considered living spaces, and are therefore given different code requirements for receptacle spacing. Stairways are a unique safety hazard in a home, which warrants the extra measures the National Electrical Code (NEC) puts in place to make visibility easier.
Laced within the technical instruction are recommendations and points of professionalism employed daily by Jefferson Electric masters, journeymen, & apprentices.
