    Earthing SWA at both ends

    Both ends for me, well on a Hazardous Area site every gland has supplementary bonding connected fire alarm and all. Also no shrouds as these have been found to hold water and glands start to corrode. Most of the motors onsite are 3 core swa so no option but to use 16 or 25 mm from the tag to...

    SWA CW Glands - Sealing Advice

    Carl, CW glands are IP66 rated. Are these junction boxes threaded cable entry holes or clearance holes? If you have more than 5 threads or 6mm engaged then the IP sealing washer may not be required. I know that a standard pack of CW glands do not come with sealing washers but still state IP66 on...

    SWA CW Glands - Sealing Advice

    Was this not picked up during inital verification? Also, if you are going to fit IP washers go for nylon, as the red fibre ones break down over time.

    ATEX Isolator front removal?

    I would disagree, Why is that 99.9% of the oil and gas industry only employ/use compex qualified workers?? And this also includes instrumentation techs as well as electricians?

    Advice

    Check fleabay for a test kit. Can't comment on Megger as I am a Fluke junkie myself. A valid calibration cert is always a good bench mark for 2nd hand gear. Also check the leads are not knackered or that will be another 50-100 squid. Oh, and check it hasn't been knicked or the next time you get...

    hazardous area contractor needed

    What type of chemicals are they storing? Would be a straight forward installation with the right spec and information. Most contractors will not have insurance to carry out such types of work. You will need to have this unit connected to their fire alarm system as well. Also, is there...

    Spanners for swa glands

    The Hawke branded glands are IP66 rated without the need for a shroud. Certification for the gland needs to be visible for visual inspections. Also the salty air hardens the shroud over time making it near impossible to remove without damage. If I come across a shrouded gland on a relatively new...
