What happens here
The video shows the apprentice installing a blank cover plate over an electrical box in the wall. This is typically done for splice boxes, where wires are joined and safely enclosed, or over abandoned wiring that is no longer in use but safely terminated within a box. The blank plate ensures safety and provides a finished aesthetic.
Goal: Safely cover unused electrical boxes or abandoned wiring
