    Which Starter Contactor

    Yo You will have to install a stop button and change the wiring in the control circuit if you want it to latch on. Only if it is safe to wire it like that.

    Reason for testing Live Neutral to Earth

    There is no potential between L-N if they are joined together so you can’t damage what’s connected between L-N

    Female electricians, for better or for worse?

    I see a lot of that on site with men too. No different. I wish there were more woman tradespeople in the construction industry.

    Two fused spurs from one current socket?

    Don’t do it Daniel.... sounds like you will blow yourself up or at least that FCU backbox with 16million cables in behind.

    Not agreeing with it, just after some thoughts from fellow sparks

    That’s rubbish, how would an industrial spark diagnose a faulty 3 phase induction motor on a call out? Smell it? Of course they have testers

    3Ø 100amp Question

    If it’s for students - based on your description most likely will be ok. Wouldn’t be sticking my name to it until I had full loading specs from each unit. Ie heater sizes etc

    unistrut lighting system

    Ah yesss I missed this. Well swap for at least a class II fitting or rewire the circuit if you are going to change all the fittings anyway. Small cost probably.

    unistrut lighting system

    Can you quote any reason why it wouldn’t be used? I don’t see no issue with using it as long as it had the correct lid.

    3 phase supply to classroom, unsure to TT?

    I think he means the flexible braid which is connected between the armours with the steel spring bands. God knows what type of joint?

    Recommend powertool kit, sds, impact, multitool etc.
