Are two wires under one breaker compliant with electrical code or should it go in a box first? 🤔

I'm sorry, what were you saying ?

It's a safety shirt, what?

@FLVinny Not allowed underwire when working with electricity

@alphafox and then i told her, "no under wire allowed on job sites " Giggity

I would jab a butter knife into an outlet just to hire this electrician.

I would nipple the wires together.

What wires ….

The ones she's holding?

Oh .. okay I was distracted, thank you for clarifying

That's odd, focus.

“Piggybacking” 2 “hots” under 1 breaker is not ideal - period. Only do it as a temporary fix, for a short time. Always best to use a single slot “twin” breaker.

That's what I was thinking.

If it gets any colder in there, that girl is going to ground herself when she faces the box.

Udderly ridiculous. Do this wrong and you land tits up. Keep the tips where they belong. If not, you’ll need the headlights on while you’re talking through the cans.

She had a couple of good points

This is what I would do, single slot double 20A breaker.

Where is her hot an neutral located?

Better check for shorts.

Lol ahh I'm so glad I was a construction worker. . . For the jokes atleast. 🤣 have a good day buddy.

Thats called double titties…i mean tapping. Really depends on the breaker rating you’re connecting it to.

She makes some good points...

Getting rid of the junction box is the breast option.

So sloppy not resetting those popped breakers…

Her electrodes are showing through their insulation.

Generally, two..... Boobies.... I mean wires arent allowed to land on one nut... terminal... I definitely mean terminal. I hope that clarifies it

Dear sweet lady, please be careful with your wire strippers so close to your tatas 😳

Before you burn a building down, put on a bra!!!!

I see two strippers in this video.

A junction in the panel is acceptable as long as the wire doesn’t leave the panel.

Are you sure? I thought they had to go in an external box.

@JoeDiluzio That's what I was thinking.

@davidst29183456 The only junction I’m ever making in a panel is when we attach the doorbell transformer to the side and pig tail it with another circuit. Or sometimes when rearranging breakers and one of the wires is short. That’s about it. Our inspector allows it as long as it’s not a pass thru

maybe instead of 2 wires, wear 1 bra

Ayo @kenny5alive think could you put a grounding clamp on those?

Some breakers allow it like Square D, QO type ,it says it on it. But Sometimes ya got to do what ya got to do regardless.

Looks like her GFCI needs reset 😆

There's not anything functionally wrong with landing 2 wires on 1 breaker, there are 2 sides of the screw to land on. It doesn't matter if you're pulling load in series or parallel it still can only go up to 20A before the breaker trips. In panel junctions aren't ideal but they're still functionally acceptable. Honestly though this just sounds like bad planning.

👍🏼

This video is actually about nipples.

I had to come to the comments to find out what she was talking about and turns out no one else was paying attention either.

My breast guess would be to install a mini double breaker. Or just splice it in a corner of the panel out of the way because nobody is going to be looking inside the panel after it’s done. Time is money fastest option

um, what??

She actually said ‘pull it up the pipe to this junction box’

Id get a wire, then put it in a bra and put it on chick, you aint impressin anybody.

This is reading like the meme videos of (for example) LEOs asking chat if they should give a driver a ticket. This sounds like a question an apprentice should have for a journeyman, not anyone to be asking chat. I'm seeing a .. 'tool belt' .. but (?)
