Commercial Vs. Residential Electric, the key differences #electrician #bluecollar #commercial

What happens here

The video begins with an electrician introducing a commercial electrical panel. He explains that he is in the process of adding two 277-volt single-pole circuits. He contrasts this with residential electrical systems, which typically utilize 120-volt circuits with a single hot wire, underscoring the higher voltage and different configuration present in commercial settings.

Goal: Understand the basic setup and voltage characteristics of commercial electrical circuits.

Tools and materials

  • Commercial Electrical Panel — The primary subject of discussion, containing various electrical components
  • Wiring — Electrical conductors for circuits within the panel

all right Ken what did you just do all right well I'm not done so obviously I'm going to get this all bundled up make it look nice in here um so basically we're adding two circuits these are 277 volt your single pole in a house you know it's like 120 volt you got one hot okay so in this case we got 277 volt here this a 480 volt panel yes 480 no well yeah but it's fed from 600 amps as you can see look at all these
