The electrician can wire a house in units of time.
The electrician can panel a house in units of time.
Therefore, the electrician can do:
/ (NAN) panelings in the same time it takes to do / (NAN) rewirings.

The carpenter can rewire a house in units of time.
The carpenter can panel a house in units of time.
Therefore, the carpenter can do:
/ (NAN) panelings in the same time it takes to do / (NAN) rewirings.

Without trade, it would take the electrician units of time to rewire units of time to panel = 0.
Without trade, it would take the carpenter units of time to rewire units of time to panel = 0.
If the electrician does both rewirings, the electrician could wire both houses in 2 x = 0 units of time.
If the carpenter does both panelings, the carpenter could wire both houses in 2 x = 0 units of time.

With trade, the electrician saves 0 - 0 = 0 units of time.
With trade, the carpenter saves 0 - 0 = 0 units of time.
With trade, both parties save 0 + 0 = 0 units of time.
