TORQUE SETTINGS: DO ELECTRICIANS HAVE CALIBRATED ARMS?

Electricians who don't use torque screwdrivers often claim they can feel when an electrical terminal is set to the correct tightness or torque. So we decided to put this theory to the test. We invited a group of electricians, apprentices and learners along to the eFIXX studio to take part in our eFIXX Talk the Torque challenge. =========================================== šŸ• TIME STAMPS šŸ•• 00:00 Are electricians' arms calibrated for torque 00:16 eFIXX Airways 01:20 The trusty tug test 01:36 eFIXX Talk the Torque - The challenge 03:22 Check out the torque CPD training module 03:30 Meet the contestants 05:20 Round one: Unknown torque settings 08:50 Round two: Torque settings revealed 11:59 Conclusion: Are electricians arms calibrated? =========================================== FREE Approved CPD training module in association with Wiha https://www.efixx.co.uk/Know%20How/To... =========================================== #AD Torque screwdrivers we use from Wiha http://hub.efixx.co.uk/wiha-torque-se... =========================================== Equipment used for the challenge Lewden consumer unit Easee EV Charger Scame Isolator Omega Engineering torque tester ================================ šŸ“SUBSCRIBE TO THE CHANNEL eFIXX helps electricians, electrical contractors, building services engineers, and electrical apprentices.
