    2 supplies to property and the one trips the other out!!

    Thanks for all the advice. I’m going back Monday so will report back as soon as I’ve done IR tests etc. I also have a power quality analyser so might put that on it for a week as well.

    2 supplies to property and the one trips the other out!!

    It’s 2 separate supplies. The farm used to be all single phase, however the farmhouse ( overhead) was left on original supply and a new 3 phase supply was installed for farm (underground supply). I think they’re fed from same transformer. Thanks

    2 supplies to property and the one trips the other out!!

    Hi, thanks for any advice. I’ve got a local farmer who has single phase to the farmhouse and 3 phase to the farm and dairy etc. The problem he’s got is when he turns the milking parlour on the house RCD trips. I am a bit stumped as to why and how to remedy. I was thinking when he switches the...

    Vacuum on Demand (vid) supply on farm

    Hi, thanks for any advice. I have been asked to install supply for vod for vac pumps on a farm. I have been told it needs own dedicated supply as will trip RCD’s. Could anybody explain why it will trip an RCD ( does it create that much earth leakage?) The local board I was going to feed from...

    Faulty external lights Help Needed

    Hi All, thanks for any advice. I fitted some spike lights about 12 months ago in a customers garden and also some in my own (14 in total). Last October customer phoned to say lights were tripping RCD and when I investigated it turned into a nightmare. It was my fault partly because I...

    LED Strip lighting supply cable

    Thanks Hex Hex. Suppliers not mentioning any names say anything up to 10m is fine on one strip and vd wouldn’t cause dimming, however in the past like you said I normally split so have 2 lots of 5m. I have never heard of having it like an rfc though. Do you just double the ends up in the driver...

    LED Strip lighting supply cable

    Hi all, probably being really thick so apologies if I am! Just wondered why led strip comes with such a thin supply cable? For eg 10m x 9.6w = 96w \ 12v = 8 A. So ideally not accounting for volt drop etc a minimum of 1.0mm csa needed. Why does most led strip come with a supply cable of maximum...

    Capacitors in motors

    Do you know where I can get the replacement capacitors to match the existing ones? Thanks again 1580672751 Hi Lucien, when you get time could you explain why they are so different and why the start capacitor has failed. Many Thanks

    Capacitors in motors

    Hi Lucien, really appreciate your time to explain. One final question, how come I haven’t seen a resistor connected to one before? Is it because it’s a higher capacitance or 408 micro farad compared to 35 micro farad. Do I need to do the same to the new one I buy. Many thanks again.

    Capacitors in motors

    Hi All, Had a farmer I’ve done some install work for call yesterday saying overload was tripping on his vac pump and could I get some new capacitors ( thought it would be simple enough as changing like for like). When I got there to have a look he said the guy who looks after parlour (...

    Time delayed rcd’s and fault protection

    Are you saying at 100mA rcd should trip within 0.2s and anything greater than 100mA will trip quicker than the 0.2s? Thank you

    Motor starter help.

    Where could I find a brimistor to replace the existing one. I’m struggling to find one. Many Thanks 1575665232 This is the what I thought was a 1M ohm resistor that I bypassed. Could it be a brimistor? Thank you 1575665726
