Seeing as there are a few Immersun dealers on the forum now, I reckon someone may be able to help me out.
We went to look at a job yesterday which looks like a good candidate for an Immersun unit BUT the consumer unit is a fair way away from the incoming mains (where the PV system CU is also...

Following the unfortunate demise of my clamp I need to get another. It got crushed, my own fault as I left it on the step of the van whilst I sorted some other kit out, forgot it was there, it fell off and I drove over it. :sad_smile:
So, I'm after recommendations and personal opinions on what...
Hi. I've got a high earth leakage value on a main db supplying many 3phase cables. What's the best way to find the leakage values on each cable? Some of them can't be turned off. If I clamp around all 4 live conductors as they enter the db would this give me the earth leakage?
Hey guys. After a little advice on dc clamp meters. Need to get one for measuring direct currents (mainly for pv systems). I don't want to buy too cheap and regret it but does anyone have any reviews on this piece of kit...

went to job late today 2 new fans fitted with speed controllers working fine until you turn them up to max speed and it trips out. Then the whole site had gone down it hadnt just tripped the mcb but the mccc feeding the db. This happened twice was doing some investigating when the site agent...
I want to invest in one of these, it's primary function will be for me to measure the mA on circuits where IT is in use, it seems they can be useful to determine where a fault might be on a circuit, I would be greatful for you opinions on these options.What i can't quite fathom and hoping...
I cannot believe the quality of some Installations that I have come across of late, here are some pictures of one I drove past today.
Look at the panel overhanging the hip, and where it is clamped.:tt1:
So, Ive just bought a new clamp meter. Now, if I wanted to measure the current for say, a micro wave, I would have to strip the flex back enough so I could get the clamp round one cable only....
Now I have just seen that in America, they have an adaptation that plugs into the socket, then the...
Going to invest in a clamp meter, nothing really flash needed, thinking of the basic Kewtech KT200.
Any reasons for or against this model ?
What do people use as their fave?
Hi all
The Megger MCC850 Clamp Meter seems to have been discontinued for some reason. Can anyone suggest a decent multi core clamp meter please.
Thanks PP
Hi all, when connecting a new main bonding connector onto old water/gas pipes that are blue, do you clean the area on the pipe first? If so, what's best to use?
I have seen a standard bonding clamps being used to connect the earth to the sheath on TNS systems several times. I was led to believe this isnt acceptable and should be changed. So when i have seen these being used i have always recommended to customers that they contact their supplier to...
