06:27 - Did You Know: Photocells and Solar Panels
07:08 - Demonstration
10:59 - Ending
Welcome to yet another informative video in which we delve into the "magic" behind the automatic lighting in our everyday environments! 🧙♂️💡 Have you ever wondered why parking lot lights appear to turn on and off by themselves? Timeclocks and photocells are responsible for this function.
In our INTRODUCTION, we discuss how photocells and timeclocks are typically used to control automatic lighting. Then, in MATERIALS, we discuss the various ratings of timeclocks and photocells and how to wire these devices. 🛠️🔌
SAFETY is paramount when working with electronics. We address potential dangers when working on circuits such as pole lights, emphasizing the need to always turn off breakers before you begin.
Then, we discuss NEC 250.4 A(2) Grounding of Electrical Equipment during CODE TIME. We research the question of why metal devices, such as timeclocks, have ground conductors but plastic devices, such as some photocells, do not. ⚡📚
Prepare for a deep dive into the workings of photocells in ELECTRICAL THEORY. We look into the topics of photoresistors, photons, and control circuit transformation. 🧪🔬
In the DID YOU KNOW section, we talk about the functional similarities between solar panels and photocells. ☀️🌎
Finally, the performance begins! In the DEMONSTRATION section, where we display a functioning timeclock and photocell connected to a few contactors, we bring everything together. Observe these intricate devices in action, controlling lights with automated precision! 🎬💡
Join us on this educational journey and get ready to view the lights around you with a newfound appreciation and comprehension. Don't forget to like, subscribe, and share our video with anyone you know who is curious about the magic behind our everyday technology!

Can 120 Volts Kill You?
The phrase “It’s only 120v! It can’t kill you!” has been around for years, and many veteran electricians don’t think twice about working live 120-volt circuits. But, in today’s episode of Electrician U, Dustin shares with us some electrical safety tips and shows us what 120v can do to the body!

In the construction industry we hear that phrase frequently. In lieu of turning off the power to something to be worked on, we will tend to leave the breaker on and just work it live. Whether it’s machismo, laziness, or even fear of our employer demanding we just do it is no reason NOT to turn off a circuit(s) and do it safely. For most circumstances, there is no reason not to de energize a circuit! No one should work on live electrical circuitry unless they have been properly trained in how to do it AND have the proper PPE in place. If you don’t have the proper training and proper PPE/tools, the risk of electrical shock and electrocution rises dramatically.
There is a difference between the terms Shock and Electrocution. Shock is defined as “a sudden discharge of electricity through a part of the body”. Electrocution is defined as “the injury or killing of someone by electric shock”. Another common misconception is that it is not the voltage, but rather the current that kills. In fact, it is the resistance from your body introduced into an electrical circuit that does it. The resistance the body offers differs depending on which body part you introduce into the circuit. Entering and leaving through a finger, while definitely not feeling great, PROBABLY wont kill you as there are no major organs in the path and the resistance is low. But, if you were to have electricity pass from one arm to the other, your heart and lungs are in that path, making for a very dangerous situation!
10ma of current can cause ventricular fibrillation in the human heart and current above 10ma can cause skin burns or death. Given that the amperages we work on are well above that amount, you can start to see the seriousness of working on live circuits. Also, wet skin is more conductive than dry skin. Since most of us sweat while we are working, that means our skin is usually not completely dry. And since the internal portion of our body is mostly fluid, having electricity run through it is very dangerous. Water by itself is not a great conductor. Start adding minerals/electrolytes to it and it becomes very conductive. In Dustin's example, 120v introduced into regular water didn’t result in anything happening. But when electrolytes were added we saw a rise in current flow and the water even started to boil. When he introduced 120v to the chicken (to simulate the muscles within the human body), we could see the damage almost instantly!
The NFPA 70E is a great document to review for electrical safety. There are a multitude of tables that show the boundaries for live electrical circuits. It also discusses the required PPE for energized electrical circuits. Normal electrical hand tools are NOT designed to protect us from electrical shock. There are specific tools that are made to withstand live electrical circuits. Look at the packaging and/or on the tool itself to see if it’s rated for energized work.
We hope this has been an insightful look into electrical safety! Leave us a comment in the comments section and let us know. Please continue to follow Dustin Stelzer and Electrician U as we are constantly updating our content to assist our followers in becoming the best electricians that they can be.

Conduit bending and installation is an art that takes considerable practice. When it comes to bending conduit, the 4-point saddle is definitely one of the most difficult to perform. Even seasoned veterans of the trade struggle bending them! In today’s episode of Electrician U, Dustin steps us through the process in a way that is easily understood.

Before we get into 4-point saddle bending, let’s take a moment to talk about aluminum conduit. Today’s sponsor- Penn Aluminum Conduit & EMT- makes some of the best aluminum conduit on the market. But why choose aluminum EMT over steel EMT? Well, it’s considerably lighter therefore it takes less labor to install and reduces wear and tear on your field staff hauling conduit around. Next, it’s much easier to bend than steel, again, making it less strenuous for your staff to install and using less labor. It’s also cheaper than steel currently, so it helps on the bottom line. Penn Aluminum has even engineered a coating for the inside of the conduit called Blue Lightning that helps with wire pulling and eliminates the snagging most often associated with aluminum conduit. Well worth it to try!
Whereas a 3-point saddle is meant for going over/around a smaller (probably round) obstruction, a 4-point saddle is meant for going over/around a larger obstruction. In essence, a 4-point saddle is 2 opposing offsets in the height of the obstruction, with a length of the obstruction in the middle of them.
The first step in the process is to measure the distance TO the obstruction and the height of the obstruction. Make a mark on your conduit using the distance to the obstruction. For this example, we are using 30-degree bends so a 2x multiplier comes into play. So, the second step is to make a mark of the offset height. Come back toward the end of the pipe and make a mark at 2x the obstruction height. Third, come AWAY from the end you’ve been measuring from and mark the conduit with the LENGTH of the obstruction. And lastly, add a final mark at 2x the obstruction height from your 3rd mark. Something to keep in mind is that you will be bending these in two sets- one two, and three four.
On to bending! Put the conduit into the bender at the first mark you made. Face the shoe TOWARDS marks 3 & 4 and the arrow of the bender on mark #1. Bend the conduit to 30 degrees. Without removing the conduit from the bender shoe, flip the bender over so it’s in the air. Slide the conduit down so the arrow is lined up with mark #2 and bend to 30 degrees. It’s important here to make sure you don’t dogleg your bends- so before bending sight down the conduit and line them up just as you would do with any offset. We are halfway there! Take the conduit out of the shoe and reinsert it at mark #3 with the shoe facing towards the bends you just made. Again, sight down the conduit to ensure all the bends are in line with one another. Bend to 30 degrees. Lastly, without removing conduit from the bender shoe, slide the conduit down to mark #4. Again, line everything up and then bend to 30 degrees. DONE!
A couple of pro tips for conduit bending. Use a pencil for marking conduit. You can rub off the marks once complete. Aesthetics is important! On most benders, when the handle is straight up in the air, you are at 30 degrees. Also, you can remove small dog legs by reinserting the shoe at the offending bend and take a bit of bend out, so everything is in line. It is important to remember that constant foot and hand pressure is required as close to the shoe as possible so as not to kink the pipe of bend the conduit any further away from where you want it to be!
We hope this has been helpful in understanding how to bend a 4-point saddle in conduit. Is there a topic you would like to see discussed on Electrician U?
