Things to know BEFORE starting on a Switchboard

There's always lots to learn, and switchboards are no exception to that. I've gone through some basics in this video, but there is still a vast amount of regulations surrounding switchboards. Insuring that they are installed properly and safely. Switchboards are coved in the wiring rules all throughout, the main of which is from section 2 onwards. I would highly recommend having a look to see what you can find for yourselves.

I always found when I was an apprentice that there was a real lack of videos and online resources to help me. I think that most electricians are visual learners, I know I definitely am. So it's hard when we are expected to do 75% of our training in books. Because if this I've set out to start making a library of training and explanations to help my fellow electrical workers in areas they might be having trouble.

Remember, this setup was performed in a controlled environment
by a qualified electrician for learning purposes only. Electricity is dangerous and can kill you. If you are not
qualified, please do not try this at home, just enjoy the learning experience.
