    Zs reading in workshop

    The workshop is fed from a 40amp non protected breaker in the house and I got an (R1+R2) reading of 0.15 from the feed into the workshop (if it was just feeding a socket for instance as a radial) but it is feeding a new cu in the workshop. Do I add the 0.15 to the 0.31 to get the figure needed...

    The last problem I have to finish the paperwork is that I have a Zs @DB reading from the house CU of 0.31ohms with a Ipf @ DB of 0.74 ka. On the test result sheet for the workshop, which has a 40amp rcd, 2 x 20amp socket radials and a 6amp lighting curcuit, what figures do I use to add to the...

    What am I accountable for on CU change as got bad test results.

    SSE did a poor job squeezing 4 cables into a old switched spur, the "leg" went downstairs to the new combi boiler in the kitchen. Personally I'd have put them all in a junction box. I found out where it went in the end though. The whole house is a mess really, but it all has good readings for...

    What am I accountable for on CU change as got bad test results.

    So find out where the third leg goes to, as 1 leg goes to boiler, 2nd goes to shower and a third shoots off under floor boards to something I couldn't locate when searching the house. I will need to search again and find it to see what's on it and disconnect

    Hi, all continuity test results are ok now I replaced all the loose earths in all the sockets and lamp holders around the house. The radial going off to feed the boiler/shower/not sure what else, all branches out of a old unfused spur where the neon no longer works, and this radial is where I am...

    Hi daz, i feel fine working for people. I didn't realize that a simple question would cause so much hassle. When I said I'll find out, I meant when I test it. Im just funny in the sense that even if I think I may be right, I will still ask the question just to be sure. It's just me being...

    I'm just gonna do what I think which is: pull all three cables to the switch, put the live in the common, and the neutral in a block and the earth to the lug. Then put a brown in the 1 way and run back to first light with and neutral from block and earth. If its wrong, I will find out. If its...

    I came on here for a simple bit of advice, nothing more, just some clarification to jog my grey cells. I have been in the building game all my life, it's not as though I'm a banker decided to change his career, I'm sorry if the fact that I've never wired up 2 tubes to 1 switch before and just...

    I give up, it was a simple question requiring a simple answer. This is why I stopped working for my boss as he too was as bigoted as most of you. I will go else where for my information

    I was with him for 3 years and it was getting to the stage where I realized he was just never gonna show me any more. He liked to do a lot if the stuff I wanted to know himself as he was a little ---- about things

    You never met my boss, slave driver lol. I had a shoulder operation and can't work at the speed he desires any more and to be honest, the money was crap and it stopped me doing my private work with his continuing rise in work hours
