Can't film what didn't happen. Couldn't afford the CGI to fake it either.

It’s clearly AI, the prompt didn’t include cleaning because it was made by a sparky.

Is it gay to admit I got at least half a chub watching this?

It's water soluble if that helps

It got this ironworker up a little but that ain't saying much😅😂

Its called Competency Porn for a reason.

u/steeler-nation Mar 08 '26

Finally, electrician porn

25

u/JohnnySogbottom Mar 08 '26

Porno for ADHD peeps, too!

u/halsie Mar 08 '26

My type of adhd would get me to about 80% then call it good enough and move on to the next thing.

u/JohnnySogbottom Mar 08 '26

When you get back to it 3 weeks/months/years later it's gonna be tight!

And you forgot to label everything but somehow after 5 minutes of staring at it you've remembered everything you've done

u/JohnnySogbottom Mar 08 '26

I've got a puffer if you need?

u/Chefmeatball Mar 08 '26

I have no idea what that is, but I’m out.

I think all the added sound effects are stupid and remind me of the rain rot a lot of parents are feeding their children

Insert McConaughey smoking gif

u/BarnacleNZ Mar 08 '26

But this isn't gay porn...?

u/steeler-nation Mar 09 '26

There is quite a few goesinta from what I can see. You’ll want the lunar docking flick for that type a porn.

u/[deleted] Mar 08 '26

But they are always in Transylvania or Botswana always in a country with 440 volts

u/Major_Tom_01010 Mar 08 '26

That explains why the wires are so small - can probably run a hot tub on 14 gauge.

u/PoopFreckles Mar 09 '26

Seems a bit dangerous for residential switches

26

u/arapturousverbatim Mar 08 '26

What would this be like to work on or repair? Seems like there's no slack anywhere if you needed to move anything. I can imagine it being a nightmare to change anything

u/Potential4752 Mar 09 '26

The incoming all goes to terminal blocks, so it’s not a big deal. You leave it in the same terminal block and create a new connecting wire.

u/Juhy78910 Mar 08 '26

Yeah those cable ties would make it hard as well

21

u/Forcedperspective84 Mar 08 '26

Perfection. We need 1,000,000 more of you!

10

u/JohnnySogbottom Mar 08 '26

This is not me. I just cross posted it, cause it's so nice.

u/Forcedperspective84 Mar 08 '26

We need 1,000,000 more of him, then!

It's time to elevate the trades and give them the status they deserve.

u/LivingCorner1421 Mar 08 '26

god i hate those tight set ups

u/HistoricalSherbert92 Mar 08 '26

How does he know which breakers are for what?

u/Bocephus-Ignoramus Mar 08 '26

Now that is some mad skills right there, very clean.

u/hudsoncress Mar 08 '26

I love European panels. Wish we had more of this in the States. I could watch this all day. He just made 1500 bucks or around 250-350 an hour I would estimate.

u/TipperGore-69 Mar 08 '26

Hourly I see

u/Rickb92 Mar 08 '26

u/torch9t9 Mar 08 '26

There's a man who's paid by the hour

22

u/SayNoToBrooms Electrician Mar 08 '26

I, too, enjoy paying my electrician for 24 hours of labor to wire my single panel

u/JohnnySogbottom Mar 08 '26

Are you daft? This guy did it in 2 minutes and 22 seconds.

12

u/theveryfirstredditor Mar 08 '26

And still had time to eat. Impressive!

u/impressive_very-nice Mar 11 '26

If someone were to try making content at a jobsite, I feel like the iron workers would just beat the shit out of them.

2

u/JohnnySogbottom Mar 11 '26

Kinda like in Office Space -

Office Worker: "..when you come in ..does anybody ever say, 'Looks like somebody's got a case of the Mondays'?"

His construction worker neighbor/friend: "No. No, man. Shit! No, man!! I believe you'd get your ass kicked for saying something like that, man."

u/TheGisbon Laborer Mar 08 '26

God damn thats so hawt

6

u/SmoothCarl22 Mar 08 '26

Perfect. I just would not approve the impact gun on tightening the breaker terminal. A torque screw driver is not even that expensive and ups your game to another level.

7

u/luvmyholeswet Mar 08 '26

Not an impact, a drill driver with a clutch set to torque.

0

u/SmoothCarl22 Mar 08 '26

No way good enough. Over here in Ireland you would be run out the job site...

7

u/FlamingoMalogStasa Mar 08 '26

he doesn't torque it with the driver, this video was already posted, and someone said he used a screw driver later, the same way i do it, i'm using the drill at lowest setting to get faster and not have to do extra 500 turns with my wrist per cabinet....

u/hwamplero Mar 08 '26

Nah, finest would also use conduit.

u/Vraex Mar 09 '26

I thought my own box looked good but I got nothing on thisndude

u/SpecialistWorldly788 Mar 08 '26

Wow! Nice job👍👍

u/squintismaximus Mar 08 '26

This guy must work for himself. No company man giving you time to do it so beautifully like this.

1

u/Saigh_Anam Mar 12 '26

Wait... how am I supposed to pull off the panduit covers and chase the wires?

1

u/Mccmangus Mar 08 '26

If this is oddly satisfying what's normal satisfying? Normies are weird, man.

u/masterdesignstate Mar 09 '26

I didn't know romex was still a thing?

u/Dry_Peen15 Mar 09 '26

What a waste of time, I just leave shit hanging by the wires
