It is often said on here we criticise others work without having the conviction to show our own work. We have Dodgy Trade Pics For Your Enjoyment so let's show the other side. No job too small or to big, before or after let's see 'em. I can change the header if someone can think of a better one. I shall start the ball rolling with this considerable board change I did today:)

It's not that big, fault current of roughly 10kA with the batteries. If I remember tomorrow I'll try and get a picture of the older busbar DC system made up of four 200x15mm copper bars sandwiched together. Unfortunately the old battery system has been removed, they used to use open cell vats around the size of a bath containing the acid and battery plates...

Ah I should have expected that, the issue was poor stock control, I ran out of 2mm that very morning so had to resort to some 3mm that was in the van. No pleasing some people. ?

when I were an apprentice 20 year ago on the electric board, they wouldn't stock 2mm sleeving, one of the "old boys" would sit and strip 1.5 g/y single to relieve lengths of appropriate sized sleeving as he simply refused to overdress his cpcs:smile:

It had an effect on me as I've always strived to keep it on the van whereas you wonder if a minority today know it exists

No, No, No
go back and do it again.
the live on circuit 12 is longer than the neutral

Take some pride in your work boy.

p.s. I like the earth bar and its signage.
and I am pleased that you can accept my dry humour.

Eaton again, I'm definitely a fan of the Memshield 3 stuff.

I must say the neutral bar is looking a bit untidy, and ignore the cables coming out of the conduit that need combing...
