Welcome aboard Locky69
It may be difficult for a competent electrician to survive doing pirs only
That corner of the market is notorious for questionable business practices
Charges can be a case of pluck a figure out of the air that can make it worthwhile, then hope you have it competitive...
As stated you should be fine with the existing
Now a question off me
What on earth has driven you to go fitting a miniature helicopter in your home
Personally I don't mind taking them out but I find it mind boggling when I am asked to install the same:)
Hello MrShine94
From my perspective and at first glance the terminations other than the Live of the bottom 16A Rcbo ,they look very neat
Is the board spaced out from the Plyboard ? the cables seem to have been squashed between the unit and the Ply
Gacia is the Chinese name for that Nano pictured device above
It seems the rating that is missing in the posted device is a 30 m/amp rating in the manufacturers picture,that is for its number SR6HM (underneath the title name)
It also seems that this old fart can out Google some of you :p...
A Eicr is one way of monitoring the safety of a installation
A maintenance programme using in house personnel would be another
If a landlord were to possess his own electrical competence I would suppose he can decide himself whether he is carrying out his duty of care and maybe have no need or...
The initial question is regards meter tails and excessive length
A later post then says there is a Kmf which feeds the dist board at the meter position:)
There seems to be a bit of a mixing of your lager and Beer bottles somewhere along the lines :cool:
The Monty Python crew did a sketch that made a mockery of the generation bragging rights long ago
"When I were young we lived in cardboard box in middle of road"
Unfortunately each generation sees their time on this planet with rose tinted specs
I'm not a Spark, I have been told by a Spark to sit the Part P
What has "sitting the Part P" (whatever that happens to be) got to do with the training required to become a electrician
It seems to me yet again,a building regulation is thought to have something to do with a electrical qualification
Just download some sort of minor works cert and scribble some details of the job done and who you are then give it to a.n other
To make it of any use,use soft paper only so that its purpose can be recycled to something worthwhile
What type of maintenance free push in connectors does everyone buy.
Never bought or used a single Wago to this date
I have removed a couple I found on a job
I replaced those with crimps,it gave me a feeling of it being a far superior method of making a safe connection
Once you test and determine there is a break,the fun can then start, using your meter to measure resistances calculate exactly where along its length that break has occurred
You could run the swa into the garage,bury it in a chase in the wall,terminate the swa into a metal back box leaving longish ends to take them direct into the consumer unit fitted over that back box
I hear these wailing sounds each time someone mentions getting a job signed off that needs to satisfy the Part P nonsense
All well and good if that is the prevailing attitude,however,it seems a little hypocritical when its a system ( signing off others work) that has been around in this...
What is meant by a neutral fault can be thought of in this way
The trip switch at your mains is sensitive to the balance of current flow down the live and back via the neutral, if its not balanced some is leaking to earth
