Hi all,
Rewired my dads garage today for my part p assessment, i bought an enclosure and a 16amp and 6 amp mcbs for the circuits within the garage. The enclosure only had the din rail in. No earth or neutral bars. The garage is fed from a 32amp mcb from the cu in the house by 2.5 mm cable which...
Basically old cu not enough space for rcd inside unit but meter and unit is inside cupboard. Could an rcd be placed before the main switch on a din rail? Would this conform to have it exposed in a cupboard inbetweeb meter and unit. Ideally a board would be replaced but due to time and money...

A friend rang me today to ask if I could come and look at his melting CU. He said that all the circuits were holding and everything operating correctly, he only noticed something was wrong when he saw smoke coming from under the stairs!!

I'm manufacturing modern enclosure cabinets intended for domestic and industrial use, can be installed outside and inside the buildings.

Ok, so here I am testing/inspecting some new floodlights installed at a local community facility. The installers, in their wisdom scarpered without leaving anything resembling a certificate so I'm doing a EICR on the 2 circuits in question.
The "post" end of the circuits is shown here, there is...

The original bell in my workshop was not audible when machinery is running.
