Welcome to Colin Does Electric — real-world electrical work, tool testing, apprentice advice, and jobsite content from a working electrician.
I’m Colin Connolly, a licensed journeyman electrician in Vermont and owner of Connolly Electric, LLC. On this channel, I share service upgrades, panel work, conduit bending, troubleshooting, electrical tools, business lessons, and honest opinions on what’s actually worth carrying in the truck.
This isn’t showroom tool content. These are real jobsite tests, real installs, real problems, and real lessons from the trade.
