Seeing as the threads been resurrected, have you seen the recent video where he conducts ze tests on a 3phase board while leaving all the outgoing circuits live.
cheers, yes i agree with what you are saying, and an RCD is required for the cable/route. The issue is a Scolmore Elucian board has been fitted and their RCBO's are single pole. Which seems massively shortsighted. (both from a manufacturing point of view, and a installation design point of view)
So regulation 722.531.3.1 says RCD's shall disconnect all live conductors.
Is this requirement met if the charger itself contains a DP RCD? As presumably there is no reason that the installed circuit requires a DP RCD? in fact depending on cable type and install methods the cable may not need...
Hi, went to have a look at a job today, customer has had gas supply company out (for another issue) and they have commented that the protective bonding conductor is the the wrong place and needs to be altered.
So gas meter is internal to property, on consumer side, about 200mm of pipework...
What a ridiculous, but probably all too common scenario. Builders, plumbers, kitchen fitters, handymen etc, happy to do unregulated, uninsured and unsafe work. Customers (the general public) are grossly uninformed about what should (and who should) be doing this work.
If indeed any of this is remotely true (it can't be. How can anyone live on 8k per year unless you are still at home.woth your parents maybe?) I'm not sure that someone who is in the trade but doesn't know what notifiable work is, or has no grasp of building regulations, is worth more than £15...
It's got to be a wind up! I hadn't seen that thread, if it's not then the guy must be living in a different country or timezone!! Even your average man on the street has heard of NICEIC!! 40 yrs in the game and doesn't know what notification is. Can't be true.
