Choosing the correct size of cable is absolutely critical to ensuring the safety and compliance of our electrical installations. But it's not as simple as just picking the right one off the shelf, even if you've taken all the correct steps up to this point there's still a chance you'll get it wrong.
Having performed all the necessary calculations in the previous videos it's finally time to select the correct cable size. Make sure you select the right cable, from the right table, using the right installation method to get your cable size right and prevent potential disasters.
Take a dive with Joe into the exciting world of electrical design in this series of videos that will help you if you're just starting out in this area at college or work. Even if you've been an electrician for years, there's something for everyone in this series of videos.
