Have a client who wants to have a go at putting in some conduit runs themselves, mostly for the challenge I think. Anyone found a good YouTube tutorial for this kind of thing thats in UK metric? Most I‘ve found so far are American imperial and thats just going to confuse and slow them down even more!
 
Your client could start here
and then follow some of the other links to build up some knowledge on the other parts of a conduit system
 
Perhaps it's an age/training thing, but the moment I see conduit being cut with a grinder....

The video gets stopped, or I walk away shaking my head from side to side vowing to get a professional company in on the next job...
I'd rather see a quick neat cut with a disc than a mangled attempt with a hacksaw!!

To be fair, I have never seen a clean cut with a grinder, so wouldn't know; and a mangled attempt with a hacksaw would illicit the same "video gets stopped, or I walk away shaking my head from side to side vowing to get a professional company in on the next job..."
 
I agree with Julie, I always use a hacksaw to cut conduit even if there was a grinder lying beside me. However I have seen the younger generation walk all round the site looking for a grinder to cut a bit of 75mm tray when they have a hacksaw in their bag.
