Hi all,
I currently doing a level 4 Design Course and I am working at the project at the moment. I managed to pass the 3 hours written exam and all I have left is the project. Does anyone knows some decent content I can watch as I feel that I need a different perspective when it comes to the...
I have a question i hope someone can just give me a little clarification on .
When carrying out preliminary cable design for a given circuit we use this formula = ( milliohms per metre x Length x multiplier Factor for maximum operating temperature ).
Do we still need to use the the maximum...
Hi guys, hope you are well. I am currently doing a level 3 2365 design project hotel, swimming pool cafe and I therefore need help on what to do on Q3. If anyone can show me a direction on what to do or show an example of how to do it would be much appreciated
Thanks
Hi,
I hope you’re all well. To cut a long story short, I’m going to be a young Dad very soon and need some help/advice/peer review with an electrical installation design project I’m working on(theory/written).
It’s mainly cable calculations I need checking/proof reading.
Everything is...
Hi all,
I am working on my revision for the 2396 exam and wanted to see if someone brainier than me could advise, when completing the thermal constraints equation t=(k²*s²)/I² on a ring circuit do you input the ring for s² as (2*2.5)².
Example1 :
Fault current 211A
t= (115² * 2.5²)/ 211²...
Hi
I'm again struggling with a long overdue 2396 project but, as before, am at a standstill when it comes to the lighting design.
Please could someone point me in the right direction? I don't know how many luminaires there should be.
The scenario is a fire station appliance bay built for two...

I am trying to understand how a relay system works and have designed a circuit and a ladder diagram all as attached for an 8 PIN relay, a current sensor and a delay off timer relay. It is the sort of thing one might use with work shop power tools for automatic switch on and delayed off for a...
Hi, I'm doing my Level 3 Electrical Install course, and I'm doing distance learning so most of the work is being done by myself with no guidance.
I'm doing the design project, and just had a couple quick questions.
Question 4 asks about circuit details for the cafe/pool block, with the first...

Question 4 mentions nothing of diversity so I’m confused wether to leave diversity until question 6 or not. But wouldn’t I need to apply diversity to get the right cable calcs and protective devices
Sorry if this has already been posted before, but it's not something I can find a definite answer to. Does anyone know if passing the 2396 Design & Verification course, means that you don't have to sit the Design Unit on the HNC in Electrical Engineering? I'm sure I have seen a few people saying...
Hey guys this is my first post on this site. Just got my design project It's a swimming pool hotel and cafe. I haven't got a clue where to begin if anyone could give me any advice please do. Thanks
Evening all. I have been working on my 2365 design project for a while and have recently received some feedback to which I was hoping someone may be able to assist. I have attached a picture of the feedback and the question. If anyone feels as though they may be able to help and wants me to send...
