    Earthing clamp

    At a domestic property today I noticed the earthing had been "upgraded" with a water/gas pipe earthing clamp used on the incoming cable, see below. I seem to recall earth clamps need to apply equal pressure all round, to avoid a risk of puncturing the insulation. I was there to do something...

    calibration of clamp & Irradiance meters

    Trying to find out the best place to get the two meters calibrated, it almost seems cheaper to buy a new one that get them calibrated. What does everyone else do regarding theirs?

    Inaccessible clamp on main bonding. Compliant?

    I'm upgrading some main bonding prior to a board change, but got a quick question. The incoming water supply is a metal pipe below the wooden floor in the living room, but the stop cock is in an inspection pit outside. As I understand, the bonding has to be connected as soon as possible inside...

    Immersun - remote clamp on incoming cables

    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...

    Finding earth leakage on 3 phase supply cables?

    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?

    Clamp meter adaptation?????

    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...
