In this video, I explain the basics of household electrical wiring in the simplest possible way.
We’ll look at:
how an electrical circuit works
what live, neutral, and ground actually do
why current needs a complete path
how grounding protects you
why and when circuit breakers trip
and how RCDs / GFCIs work
Using simple demonstrations, wiring models, and real examples, this video is designed for homeowners, DIYers, and anyone who wants to understand how electricity in a home actually works.
Whether your country uses 120V or 230V, the basic principles are the same.
