    Hi, yeah. That's what I thought. Just having a debate, if its correct. We are labelling the terminals. Nothing on instructions. Just wanted to know it works same, and not breaking regs Thanks

    32 amp rotary isolator

    Anyone know if there is a reg in regards to supply going in to the top of a rotary isolator. We are changing the isolators over for ac units, long story short they won't reach the top terminals now, so feed can only go in bottom. Just a 2.5mm 3 core swa. Cheers

    Hi, Yes, I passed am2. I just took pictures of every step of what i was doing. Eg measuring the conduit, cutting the conduit, or bending the tube, installing the saddles etc. Probably averaged 4 pictures per logbook. It's been a while since I did it now. It is a bit of a ling process, but worth it

    Which ECS Card to apply for?

    You will get a installation gold card, at electrician grade. Only with 2391 will you get approved, you also have to have gold card for 2 years. If you want to sub contract, and work on the commercial/ industrial site a gold card does matter, and is required nowadays.

    X3 isolator switches blown for zip inline water heater

    If it is 11KW would it be best to put the heater on a 50 amp mcb with a 50 amp isolator?

    X3 isolator switches blown for zip inline water heater

    The switch is no longer functional. Need to have another look to find out if it is a DEX12 or DEX? DEX12 rated current: 38/48 DEX: 26/39 Think it is possible that they have been playing around with the switches.

    18th edition and bonding to gas and water

    hi, I have my 18th edition exam booked next week. I have just started to read up on the changes. I am correct in stating that if the gas and water pipes have a plastic insulated section. At point of entry, then they do not require 10mm bonding?? Sorry if this is a stupid question.... Thanks

    Advice on pricing for job

    Yeah, I said to the bloke on the phone he was getting a good price for the board change, and test. As it was a bit of a favour and I had some boards already in my van etc, I said I would do it for 300. The fella I used to work with was going to issue him with a cert after I had completed the...

    Lighting strike on property. high ZE and arking when testing.

    I couldn’t agree more. Particularly in this case. I’m 95% certain it relates to the strike. I think it’s always best to get as much information out of the tenant or whoever about when and how the fault occurred etc. He may give you some clues e.g. lighting strike, flood damage. You would...
