    **Show Us Your Installs!!!**

    I have always thought you would see a lot more metal conduit/trunking systems were most people not running in unnecessary cpc's. 25% less cable, smaller trunking/conduit runs etc. Then along comes mr. 'just in case' who decides to start speccing Cpc's in tube and it becomes un-cost effective...

    Changing main switch on CU

    Tails look like they're probably sheathed reds and blacks to be fair, we've always used them, (well browns and blues now). Like you say though not even a leccy shower or cooker in sight so no need for a 100A switch. Whats the betting theres no difference internally between an 80 and a 100...

    Changing main switch on CU

    This would be a stupid policy, wouldn't it? Downgrading all fuses, what about Granny using 7 storage heaters, a leccy shower, immersion htr. etc.? 60A vaporises and leaves her in the cold and complaining. Some DNO's blanket fit 80A, western power being one example. Others fit either 100A or...

    installing 3ph and single ph wiring into new workshop

    not being nasty mate, but only a fool would 'check and certify' someone else's work and pass it off as their own. sounds like you need a larger TPN db, some 2x2 gAlv trunking, some steel conduit and a competent electrician to install it for you.

    Do hand dryers require RCD protection

    haha thionk more of 'room containing bath or shower' i.e. changing rooms etc.

    Fitting a DB without updating the main bonding.. Bad crack or safer than before?

    I would disagree with you there, Being that the bonding 'within 60mm' is a recommendation, I think the worst you could code the above scenario is an observation, In fact the worst you can code any effective bonding is an observation.

    Do hand dryers require RCD protection

    Agreed, I missed the earthed metallic pipe bit!, IF its in a bog not a bathroom, NO code could reasonably be given other then an observation.

    Tails upgrade

    87A is the limit for 16mm tails, if your pulling that regularly in your gaff you must be growing something! :earmuffs:

    Tails upgrade

    They don't really 'insist' as such. I recall people on here saying it all stems back to the drawing of a standard arrangement in the onsite guide.
