I didn't take any pictures today. I couldn't complete that part of the job because Denmans didnt have the gland I wanted and I got involved in another part of the job instead. There's no gas to this property as it's on the edge of a cliffe, so all the heating is electric underfloor. I've wired...
OOh, you are a bunch of bitches on here aren't you!!
Is your life soo sad you have to sit on your own every evening waiting for your next victim to come online? Were you bullied as a kid? I've just been reading through the posts of the last poor sole who came on the forum looking for advice...
Unlike some people, who think they know absolutely everything, I do consider myself an 'apprentice' most of the time. I can happily accept that there's always something new to learn. Particularly with electrics because it's not a full time occupation for me, and sometimes I come accross...
Get out of it CR... I'm not defeated! If I was I wouldn't be here asking for opinions would I? I've seen things done in all sorts of different ways, so it's nice to ask how others deal with such situations, especially when you normally work for yourself and don't have a whole company of...
I meant on the switch, not the gland!!
It's not my own house but what stated as a relatively simple layout has got bigger and bigger and I'm running out of space on the wall!! Already have all the sola PV stuff, then a supply to a sauna, and now another to a seperate 'cabin' outside.... it's...
I may just opt for the grommet, got plenty of those... Thanks for the suggestion though, I was trying to work with what I already had but it makes for more sense to splash out on one of these for a much neater job! Even better if I can take the tails out of the top of the unit, with the swa...
I'm joking about the book of course, but I have to admit, the last time I looked at one of these books was during my half day 17th update all those years ago :-)
Anyhow, that must be a massive gland to fit two 25mm's through! Surely too big to fit in a 25mm knockout?
Thanks, the metalclad unit is a good idea... for the SWA side, but what about coming out of the metalclad with tails? Through seperate 20mm knockouts perhaps??
I have to feed a CU in an outbuilding. I need to take a supply from Henley blocks via a switch fuse in 10mm SWA... the problem is being able to neatly connect the SWA to the switch fuse. One of these: Lewden 100AMP S/W FUSE DOMESTIC - Superlec Direct
I certainly wouldn't advocate the scenario, and have always worked on the basis of MCB egual or less than CCC of cable. I have always replaced 'offending' MCB's in the past with something more 'suitable' but maybe I've been over cautious? I don't get involved with EICR's so don't have the...
Any suggestions as to how to terminate swa into a switch/fuse neatly? I've run it through a metal box and out to the switch with the switch cover covering the point where the sheath is split but wondering if there's a neater way to do things?
