Have got a new supply going in and have been told its 300KVA 3 phase now if i have worked it out correct is comes in a 433 amps which going by the size of the places i would expect to be per phase. Which i take it would be fused down to 400 amps by the DNO
Hi everyone,
I was called out to a house yesterday to fit a new 2 gang dimmer switch.
When got there the customer had installed on 1 circuit throughout the whole down stairs, over 100 x 50w / 230v down lighters onto a 6 amp circuit. Quick clac suggests this as being over 5000w/ 230 = 22Amps...
i have recently bought a pool heater that requires 19 amps 240 volts and that doesn't have a plug socket. im looking
at ways i could add this to my mains and that cant be plugged in permanent.
Ok i just spotted this in the main section of the forum and it got me thinking about the answers. I dont remember doing this at college.

Determine the current which will flow at the same voltage if the frequency changes...

I have a light in the kitchen, its a light under the cabinets. Im currently operating at 12v at 20w drawing 1.67a. I got this by using p=iv. Now i was intending on changing to 240v at 2w and was getting 0.01a using the same equations. Now this seems odd to me, because even if i changed the 2w to...

Hi guys
Just changed a board in a 60s bungalow, and whilst waiting for the customer to find the neon trashing my insulation readings, I checked low ohms live to neutral on an old 6mm radial with 7029 drops, socket circuit. Even in my head I worked out 9 Ohms equated to 23A or about 5Kw- Not...

Hi,
I'd like to know if anyone knows any good sources to help understand amps, voltage etc better. The teachers at college haven't got in on the subject just yet. I don't yet fully understand the breakers and why different amps are needed for different circuits.
Thanks,
Anthony.
I have a small building to design. The main supply is from another building (existing) which is 3 phase and 63A protection (not sure about it). It is 7 way and 3 are spare. L1 is 96A, L2 is 54A and L3 is 84A. I am looking forward to use L2. But the new building have a load of 82.1A and...
