Running Wire In A Bathroom Remodel (Part 1)

Electric Pro Academy - Real skills to make real money.

Synopsis:
There are those who replace a light bulb and consider themselves DIYers, then there are those who rip out the bathroom walls and redo the whole shebang! In this video, Joel will run wire for switches, overhead lighting, vanity lighting, and an exhaust fan. Such a project requires attention to the National Electrical Code (NEC), general electrical concepts, and future finishes and selections. If you’ve taken your bathroom down to the studs and have lighting or other electrical dreams, this might be just the video you’re looking for.

Within the technical instruction are recommendations and points of professionalism employed daily by Jefferson Electric masters, journeymen, & apprentices.
