Electrician shows the FULL Process of Installing a 200 AMP Resi Service💪 Thoughts? #hendythesparky
What happens here
The service wires are fully terminated within the meter socket and exterior disconnect. The two 'hot' wires come into the meter socket, and a neutral wire runs through the middle. These then feed down to the exterior disconnect. An SEU (Service Entrance Underground) cable runs from the exterior disconnect into the electrical panel in the basement, completing the house's main power feed. The PVC conduit leading up the wall has an expansion coupling to manage thermal changes. Finally, all covers are securely installed on the meter socket and exterior disconnect to protect the electrical components.
Goal: Complete internal wiring, secure enclosures, and prepare for utility reconnection.
