    Three phase problem

    Hi Darkwood, really appreciate your help. The PWM output throwing my meter reading makes a lot of sense as the other piece of kit hanging off this 1-3ph device works OK. I was beginning to doubt my meter. I've possibly confused things mentioning the transformer. Will try and draw it all out.

    Three phase problem

    Hi Darkwood, many thanks, good question. Meter's a cheap old DVM ( I was visiting for free tea). Haven't been back to see if 3ph is floating although wouldn't the phase to phase voltage still read correctly? Voltage didn't change on no load. What would be SELV in this other than the transformer...

    Three phase problem

    A friend asked me to have a look at a piece of equipment he had recently had installed. It's three phase with an internal transformer (415v to 24v) that provides 24v for the hand switch to operate a relay to switch on the motor. It doesn't work. I measure 8v on the relay rather than 24v. I...

    What Courses Should I Take?

    Get into gas or plumbing - From my experience of plumbers it's easier to keep electrickery in wires than water in pipes. And where's there's pain (a flood) there's gain. If you're in the south east speak to Able Skills at Dartford. Knowledgeable and helpful company that run an extensive range of...

    PV electrical certificate price ?

    Shurely AC certificate is just the electrical installation cert plus schedule of tests, inspections etc. If you have Part P certification then you can do a domestic AC cert!

    Has there been any progress on the Part P review

    As a newby I'm a bit puzzled. Yes why not 2391 or even 2392 (it's geared towards domestic testing) and 17th but as I understand it - Only commercial work is eligible for attaining an NVQ and 'Part P' is only required for domestic installation work. Or of course, more logically, why not make the...
