    Vans

    We have had problems with ours down the line, depends what kind of environment it will be working in and what kind of mileage it will be doing. I think Transits are bomb proof and swear by them. Only my opinion though!

    That's because you have OCD Dave!

    Has somebody drilled a cable by any chance?

    No power to spur

    Why would a water heater have to run via the BMS? Is it being taken for granted that it does, or it did? If the contactor is isolating the Live and Neutral I'd be tempted to do a continuity check on them, to confirm if they are the correct wires. The switch on the panel maybe from a PLC, so...

    20mm PVC conduit crossover / hopover?

    You must have a fair pair of hands to do that without bending it over your knee! Or are my hands a bit small?

    20mm PVC conduit crossover / hopover?

    If it's in your own property, I'd strip it out again and join it all together, making it look neater. If not and you make your own bubble set, with you not doing much conduit, have a few bashes at it first and don't be worried about throwing an earlier attempt away, there's an interesting...

    Just a bit of Tray

    Nice to see a job having money spent on it and not stripping it back to the minimums in the name of profit! Good work.

    Please help with this circuit! Its not working and I have no idea why!

    Surely the connections cannot be any different to what the people above have said, was it rated correctly for the working voltage and current of the motor? Chin up mate!

    Suggestions please

    Don't they usually come with two different pairs of mounting brackets? One where the light points to the worktop and one where the light will be pointed towards the wall behind, rotating the fitting 90 degrees and throwing less light out, in effect. Especially with granite worktops, they light...

    explain this.....

    What does the supply do, or what did it do? Most temporary site supplies are a TT installation, that can be maintained in the right circumstances.

    Moving accessories

    I'd walk away, regardless of weather on not you have agreed about joints and things like that, if someone follows you onto the job and asks the customer who did it, and they say you, they will not go into depth about how you walked around every point and tried your best to be conscientious...

    Soffit lighting

    Whenever I see soffit lights that have been fitted for a while they always seem to look grubby, a swine to clean etc etc, much prefer those wall mounted spots that wash the wall upwards and downwards. If it's a new house it may be worth checking that no warranties are voided due to the drilling...

    Ducts to lampposts

    I have had this problem before at a large car park in Leeds, following on from other people who were working to a terrible standard also, things disconnected all over the show. I asked the question about getting civils involved to trace things, but was knocked back on the fact the client didn't...

    main fuse blown

    I have seen a main switch go due to the terminals in the cutout not being as tight as they should be, DNO came and rectified the fault, I got a head shake for cutting the seal.

    MCB tripping

    I was wondering if it was the cause yes, having had some surprises from neutrals in my younger years!

    Sunbed shop. Breaker keeps tripping! HELP?!

    I wouldn't have thought it would be a problem with your distribution board, or your protective devices (MCB/RCBO) I think they will be doing their job and it will be a problem with the sun beds or associated wiring.

    MCB tripping

    If it was the neutral from the fitting itself that had come loose and touched the casing then wouldn't it become live due to losing its neutral connection?

    Pet hates

    Yes Risteard, they are the bleeders! Yellow cards on jobs make me laugh though, site managers come down on us like a ton of bricks but let the dryliners and boarders get away with murder because they need the job pushing on!
