WARNING! I am not an electrician, I only play one on YouTube. In all seriousness, I do extensive research to try and bring you the most accurate and up to date information I can, but, try as I may, I can still get things wrong. Please do your own research to ensure your install is being done as safely as possible. I believe in giving power to the DIYers, but it still has to be done safely, and if you're feeling like something might be a bit much, please seek out professional help. Here are some helpful links, and as I mentioned in the video multiple times, READ THE MANUAL!
