Correction: 1:18 Right side cable should say "insulated" not "un-insulated"
Correction: 10:36 should read 6,242,000,000000,000 not 6,424...

  • Not studying electrical engineering, not planning on it, just figured I'd spend my time on YouTube watching something meaningful for once. Thank you for these videos.
  • @maheshmurali2697
    I comprehended more from this channel that what I did in 4 years doing Engineering
  • @DIYDaveOK
    In all the years I studied engineering, I was never shown an animation that so literally demonstrated the flow of electricity changing direction in AC circuit. I never truly understood that - what I learned was only from looking at the sine wave. The whole concept of bridge rectifiers and inverters suddenly makes sense now. I mean, I got it before, but I didn't get it. Now I do. Amazing.
  • @simp-slayer
    Yo! Just wanna say your videos are amazing at explaining stuff! Schools should be using animations like yours, it's 2020 already. I plan to do a marathon of TEM videos soon. Thank you for making these FR.
  • @adelali3612
    Im studying electrical engineering. This helped a lot thanks ❤️❤️
  • @derbrett1503
    I think you need a further correction for the 10:36 mark. You have in the text: "One Coulomb =" BIG number "per second". A coulomb is just the number of charged particles without any time dimension. BIG number per second would be an Ampere. Great teaching work, thank you.
  • This makes so much sense! I'm planning on becoming an engineer, so I find this stuff so fascinating. Once you figure out the basics like electrical current, the complex stuff starts to make sense.
  • @Middlestepofficial
    This is a priceless channel. I'm a computer scientist, and my father was an electrical engineer. I'm filling so many gaps in my knowledge in such a short time, it's unbelievable! Thank you very much for the efforts to put this online. Keep up the great work with this channel!
  • @nadavleor
    this is the most useful channel in my youtube list. Thank you very much.
  • @JazzyByDefalt
    I've just started learning about circuits and electricity and I've been really struggling to understand the difference between Voltage and Current. Then you said you can measure the presser of the tank if its not flowing but not the rate it flows at and it clicked! The difference seems so obvious now, thank you!
  • @CiaranMakesMusic
    I am a 2nd year electronic engineering student and this is more informative than any lecture. Its grand learning complex equations but its really important to understand the basics ...which can actually be fairly complicated
  • @jerryhammack1318
    Finally found the right place for information that pertains to my multi level job as an industrial mechanic! Electrical experience from helping my father who held his journeyman Electrical license for 49 years local IBEW 520 Austin Texas! Has paid off just lacking on motor controls on overhead cranes! Very useful and appreciate solid information and understanding of what I have to deal with! Thank you!
  • @rofs3274
    I am not studing electrical engineering, nor I want to be an electrical engineer. But why not watch these videos??? They're so cool!
  • @danilo352
    I’ve been through multiple videos by this channel and I’m finally starting to understand things I’ve struggled with forever. I’m not an electric engineer or even consider myself a hobbyist/maker, but I’ve been trying to understand electricity for a while. Thank you.
  • @cheslg6809
    At first, I just wanted to watch only a few videos but I didn't think I'd get hooked up learning about these stuff. I'm no engineer because I got kicked out from my chemical engineering program but would still like to preserve whatever I learned. Now I began to understand the math, physics and mechanics of things. It usually takes me 2-3 tries to pass a course though. Hence, I ended up becoming financially broke (got no money to go to school even to this day). Though I now work as I chemist, these free videos really helped me understand things I didn't know before. I feel like I'm well learned than my batch of colleagues even though I'm literally a failure. After 3 weeks, I've finally finished this playlist (I only watch when I'm in the mood otherwise I wouldn't remember a thing). It's like I took a basic electrical engineering course which was normally taught for 4-5 months in school. I'm planning to watch all of your videos. Keep them coming. I'll support this channel. 😁
  • Your page has helped me out a lot as an instrumentation technician. Thank you. You explain everything so well.
  • @AyA-fh8jt
    Going into my second year of electrical and electronic engineering. Going to watch your beginners guide to brush of any rust and then start with your more complex videos. 2 years to go !
