Great video. Loved the tips about the markers under the numbers on the cable and leaving an end on the tape. I got a tip too when screwing J hooks to blocks: instead of using rawl plugs, get some DeWalt Wall Dogs. All you need is a 4mm or 4.5mm pilot hole and you can screw straight into the block (or even concrete) without using any rawl plugs. And they're strong.

Pulling cable is an art. I have seen a few jobs go sideways due to not keeping proper track of wire pulls and completed areas. It can turn into a Charlett's web of pain. Keeping on top of drawing and what has been pulled and what needs to be pulled. Keeps a major mess from forming. I told the new person it is time for arts and crafts. We updated every day. It was the best thing we did through the project to keep all involved on track. We knew on multiple floors at any given time what needed to be done. This helped to locate manpower when you were given extra help for the day. It was one of the building blocks I try to teach new people getting into the low voltage industry. I always liked full large prints for this. A good plan leads to a good ending. It a real pain to do work twice after the walls start closing up. Sometimes it better to wait on a tricky area and a better solution will solve itself. I hope this helps someone getting into the trades.

Use blue painters tape (the fine edge type) to secure string and cables together temporarily instead of electrical tape. It holds strong, removes clean quick and easy. Labor Saving Devices makes different sized mesh socks that fit over the end of several cables to save a lot of tape, and holds strong while pulling.

Try it out sometime, as when we switched over we found it to be a huge time saver for rough-in, and techs keep their hands clean from tape residue. It's important to note that there is a massive difference between the fine edge tape and any other masking tape (regular masking tape is terrible).

Yes, don't do diagonal. Did work and got into ceilings that had diagonal webs upon webs. With cabling it's need structure so you can upgrade and bundle it. I like the J hooks. Depending on the facility and business you will see there is lots of things in the ceilings (HVACs electrical, plumbing, pneumatics air hoses, etc). Sometimes it's tight place to wire not a straight shot.

2 tips #1 when youre taping the string to the stick - tape all the way onto the string. if you have to pull back on the string if wont split a grid wire or duct strap and cause you to have to go find it and release it it. Same for a fish tape. if you have to pull back it wont split a BX or strap in the wall. #2 when you take the 'head' 'nose' 'starting point' (whatever you wanna call it in your town) ...always tape that thing like its going in your a$$. you want something fat and bulky more power to ya! .....but smooth staggered and thin. Great tip about double lines on the backside of the numbers. 26 years, never seen that one.

Typically we do not like to put in the wall as down the road more might be added or for troubleshooting you need to re-run a damaged cable. Depends on the site, in NJ we did just run down the wall.

Its always interesting to me to see the way different companies and different techs do things. In cabling there is not always one right way to do something, often there are multiple ways to accomplish the same task, neither may necessarily be right or wrong, just different......but... you'll very often have techs/installers/ PMs etc who think their way is the ONLY way or the best way, because that's what they are use too. There are many people like this in the cabling industry, so they will always chime in with their 2 cents and say that the way your doing it is 'wrong' or could be better. For example, to me writing on cables with a Sharpie, I've done, we have all done it, especially back in the 90s but now I print multiple labels, one to stick on the box for the pull, 2 for both ends of the cable during/after the pull and 2 more for final termination at the user end and patch panel( if the cables need to be shortened). Then you got someone like CableSupply.com that does not label their cables at all, they pull them with no labels, terminate them, then tone them all out at the end and then label......all work, none are right or wrong necessarily....just different.

At times? We will try to answer this....but typically in the ceiling exposed but supported 4-6FT so not much "sag" or stress on the cabling. Down to location, the cabling is protected by the wall or conduit, depends on the site :)

Any reason for no black tape on white wire or just your preference? Yes....no wire ties...anyone says it....just at times if you do not "crank em down" too tight...they are fine at times. I know alot of comments will fly on this one....let it begin :)

Please stop using zip ties. They are horrible for cable. Use Velcro instead, it doesn’t pinch the cable and it’s reusable.

LOL - Thanks for the love Harry! Relax.....have a moment my friend :) Videos can't do every site.....so what we hoped to show is just attached the string to the bundle and yes that place was a small office that we just used for video. Yes.....as well......we follow behind the ECs that drop conduit. My view, without starting a war on KZitem, is anyone can drop in conduit. It's the skill of drywall installs we train for. Trust me.....look at cakewalks jobs we have done....major sites...Amazon (which are small), LIDL, Defenses Plants, MDUs....etc etc. Those jobs the guys love....since a "baby" can cable. Of course cable management is time consuming on 500+ cables. The baby jobs....that you mention or we train.....for me..(the owner, Paul) that is what we train my team for. Try passing a final inspection with the video's knowledge....not happening. So....I hear ya.....but we train all our guys for ALL environments. $$$ Comment. I pay my guys the highest rate, I'm a former tech....my company is like I would pull cable for. I've hired "pros"......they last for awhile.....but it's not conduit feed.....they don't last long. I'm providing exceptional jobs....at a fair price. Man...I ranted a bit eh? Much love....send me over your channel....would love to see your work and pro moves! :)

@@BridgeCable I think that video was actually shot in the late 90s, thus the dated music. The course is extremely basic and of no use to an experienced tech but I guess has some value to someone who has never pulled cable in their life, as the techniques for cabling have really not changed much at all, since the early days of computers and networking. Technology has changed massively since then but the cabling process has not.
