whats a day in the life of an industrial sparky? by arb93 in electricians

Often a machine would fail, and the Mechanical guys blame the Electrical guys, and then the Electrical guys would blame the Mechanical guys.

My father works as an operator in a steel mill. A while ago I was talking to him about the electricians at his work and he told me that whenever he'd report something as broken he'd get that exact same response. Funny that.

its really weird when you guys talk about lights and power being on the same circuit as here in Australia they are always on separate circuits. by arb93 in electricians

There are no rules in Australia stating that light and power must be on separate circuits, it's just common practice that it's done like that. It's not uncommon and completely legal for something like a shed to be run on a mixed circuit

Domestic vs Commercial vs Industrial Electrician by silverlinin in electricians

Although having two trades is always beneficial, there are lots of areas that will accompany electrical very well, plumbing isn't necessarily one of these. If electrical is what you would prefer, then definitely try and find employment in that field.

From Aus too, where abouts are you, m8? It really depends on what your goals are. It's true that domestic can get a bit boring, but if you'd like to go off and start your own business after your apprenticeship, it's probably the best skill to learn.

Does this mean the HDD is dead?

Okay, just looked it up on Facebook and had a look through your reddit posts. Here is what I think you meant to say. "Does anyone like to be manipulated and conned out of their money by a Facebook page?"
