    Pulling the dno fuse

    Exactly what I have done and what I plan on doing. Best I could do on a Saturday with what I had on my van.

    Pulling the dno fuse

    I was waiting for someone to say that haha, I was doing a job about 10mins walk away when I got the call. I didn't exactly use a full mask and gloves on this occasion but I was well aware I should have done, I did wear goggles and gloves though as I was chopping out on the previous job ,all the...

    Pulling the dno fuse

    This is the reason I asked the question, to see what others would have done, I want to learn from this experience and see how I can improve. I still feel I did the best I could in the situation though and I never let the customer change my judgement, like i said before, my aim was to remove the...

    Pulling the dno fuse

    Thank you for your response, the dilemma i had was the client needed to be up and running as soon as possible. Yes i could have taped it up and waited, and in a circumstance where time was not an issue I would have considered this, but as you can imagine I was under pressure to get power back...

    Pulling the dno fuse

    Like I say when I first arrived I didn't have my van on me so I had no way of telling What was live and dead, I presumed it had blown the main fuse but I couldn't be certain so I pulled the fuses. The whole lot was so hot you could barely touch it.

    Pulling the dno fuse

    That's what I thought, I was just seeing what other people would have done in this situation as I have not come across this before. I thought the way the technician acted was really unprofessional as he was shouting at me in front of the client saying i didn't know what I was doing. Even if he...

    Pulling the dno fuse

    That is exactly what i thought, apart from it was 400v, my first instinct was to kill the power and normally when i have called them out before they have been really friendly, this one chap was a complete prat. What if someone had entered the building when I had my back turned. Not only that but...

    Pulling the dno fuse

    I did think afterwards I could have potentially just locked the area off but the issue was they had a restaurant full of people and the fuse board is in the main stairwell. I was not happy with just putting a barrier around the area. When pulling the fuses I wore flash gloves and a mask just in...

    Pulling the dno fuse

    Hi all The other day a friend of mine who owns a restaurant lost power so I went to take a look for him as I was only around the corner. Upon arriving I found that the tails straight off the meter into the switch fuse had burnt out and one of them was hanging out the box (it was quite a mess...
