Electric Pro Academy - Real skills to make real money.

Synopsis:
For those hoping to see inside the mind of a master electrician as he visualizes and manipulates wire behind finished walls and between floors with x-ray precision, prepare to be…

…disappointed. While EPRO exists to make “electrical best practice” readily accessible for the good of the trade and future generations, we have to admit that we’re hoping to make our lives a little easier, too. Join us on the wrong side of the drywall, fidgeting with confused three-way switches and scratching our heads attempting to achieve functionality and safety, as Joel asks himself: “Why is a downstairs living room switch operating an upstairs bedroom?!” If you’re considering some electrical “exceptions” in your own home, please watch and learn what questionable wiring choices can mean for future residents and servicemen. At the same time, here’s a few ideas and diagnostic tools to consider if you’re in our position.

…Better yet, get a 15-year professional electrician’s expertise directly via video or voice call to overcome your home project obstacle! EPro’s own Joel Walsman is available for any electrical question, with complete transparency & full-bodied advice for the seasoned or novice DIYer here: https://electric-pro-academy.square.site/
