    Understanding minimum CPC requirements?

    16mm on pme is a dno requirement. Part of your supply agreement (along with 10mm bonding conductors). Nothing to do with 7671

    calculation check before i rip the flat to bits.

    Meter fitters do not have the authority to uprate a fuse. There have been issues with 100A fuses in cutouts. The fuses will take a sustained overload for a considereable period of time and if subjected to such an overload the fuse carrier gets very warm, some of the fuse carriers in the newer...

    calculation check before i rip the flat to bits.

    The fuse is almost bound to fall out when you do the cu change, why not make sure it is only a 60A? I never seek authorisation to reduce a fuse rating, only to increase it. As a matter of course my DNO replaces 100A fuses with 80s whenever they come accross them, often the meters are only rated...

    Fitting consumer unit ‘portrait’ not ‘landscape’

    How many ways? Look at Live boards or Denmans Curve. Live boards with the compact rcbos are so tidy inside they hardly occupy any space.

    LED strip lighting, DMX decoders, power supplies, controllers....help!

    Wouldn't have thought that joining one strip to another would be suitable, you would likely be increasing the amount of current going through the first strip beyond it's design rating. I have only powered over 5m once but for the second strip I ran seperate conductors from the power supply

    New iPhone September 2018

    Moving away from Apple is a lot easier with the Mi user interface. Best purchase I have made recently is buying a Xiaomi phone, ridiculous value for money and I find the miui so intuitive. They have a seperate section so if you want to be controlled by google wanting to do this and that, then...

    wiring multiple led downlights

    With a lot of makes it is very clear. LENNEL, NELNEL, LENLEN etc are not brand names, it is how and where you terminate the conductors

    Does anyone else get a little nervous at assessment time?

    Don't think you can choose to add it with Stroma. You have to have the 2391 (or equivalent) first. As I understand it, they are not going to endorse somebody for EICRs if they do not have an inspect and test qualification

    Main Earthing Conductor and Earthing System question.

    Almost every time an underground joint is made it is earthed, often by just burying bare conductor but sometimes by a rod with (often bare) conductor crimped to it. A tns supply that has had multiple joints will have multiple earthing points so you can be presented with a supply that looks like...

    client wont let me back into site

    Did you supply / install the 50mm SWA? If your customer has now been told by your assessor that what you have done is wrong then it is not a suprising reaction but leaves you in a very awkward position. You may have to offer to pay for a third party to rectify the mistake (can a 16mm copper...

    3P and 1P in Commercial Premises

    To balance the load you would need to use the 3 phase distribution board. Using the single phase board would put all the loads (exc the occasional light ramp load ) on one phase. How often are the wash machines and dryer going to be running? 13A plug machines?
