    Hydraulic crimping of 25mm 19 strand cables in flat crimp pins?

    Evening chaps. What's the rules on this? I can't specifically see anything relative to the 19 stranded cables. My boss says he won't crimp in consumer units, avoid it all costs, he rather strip a whole house down or add additional boxes than use a single crimp inside a CU. Fair play to him...

    I need a 25mm plain to 20mm screwed conduit adapter.

    Have an isolator switch with 20mm screwed entries into the bottom. Have existing 25mm conduit I want to run into it. Ideally I need a simple adapter, 25mm plain to 20mm screwed conduit adapter. Does this exist cause I can't google one anywhere.

    Quinetic Grid options / 25mm box?

    I'm just wondering if anyone knows whether any/all of the Quinetic grid switch modules fit in a 25mm back box? It "looks" just about ok. But if it definitely doesn't it would be nice to know!

    Cable pulling question 25mm 4C in 63/50mm duct

    When putting in some duct for fibre broadband we also put in a few lengths of 63/50mm twinwall duct "just in case" we needed that, as we knew of a few possible use. At the time the biggest load was expected to be of the order of 32A so 4C 6mm ample and no size issue. However we are now...

    Hi, Just had a new Smart Meter fitted yesterday along with isolator. The chaps installing the SMART meter used 16mm tails from the main DNO fuse cut out (containing 80 amp fuse) to the meter, but then used 25mm tails from the meter to the newly installed isolator (which they also installed). I...

    Is 25mm 3 core swa good for earth and Bonding

    So me and a colleague were having a discussion about using 25mm 3 core swa as a live, neutral, earth and a Bonding conductor when relocating the position of the consumer unit, I suggested that using a 25mm 4 core as I can't see the 25mm earth being big enough for 16mm earth and 10mm bonding with...

    20mm hole 25mm gland

    I am looking for some sensibly priced thread convertors so that I can screw my 25mm compression glands to the convertor/adaptor to then use the existing 20mm holes. On Andersen chargers there is a 20mm hole for cable entry and its a very tight squeeze to get a drill or cone drill bit in to...

    25mm back box - Schneider Ultimate Slim Range

    I got into a discussion with a friend - he came around to see what I had fitted. I fitted a mix of sockets - BG and MK (different up and downstairs) - he wants to replace his existing sockets with Schneider Ultimate Slim White Range - I think he has standard 25mm boxes. I said he couldn't use...

    25mm to 16mm in-line crimp

    Anyone know if it is possible to buy 25mm to 16mm in-line crimps? This would be so useful taking 25mm SWA down to 16mm for CU termination without the need to do 2 x lugs and bolt them together.

    Hi guys can anyone help, few of the sparks over here in jersey are using 25mm double insulated flexible (15-16 strands) at supply intake for meters, 100Amp services single phase.
