I've recently completed a part p defined scope course but all of our testing was on TNS or TNCS systems, in our house we have a TT system and in the OSG I can't find much information on the maximum earth fault loop impedence, just says that it is likely to be higher than their TN tables? I might...

6.9 v for lighting
11.5 for a socket.

Is there a wxtra safe rule of thumb method ppl use?

Hi
When working out Amp draw (Watt/Voltage) for a domestic dwelling do I keep my voltage figure at 230 when in real terms the actual voltage as source is 246v
So for a 7kw cooker I do 7000/230 = 30.43amps but at 245v its 28.57amps.
Do I always use 230 as the figure for a domestic dwelling?

Hi All,
Q: If an earth fault loop impedance instrument records a valve of 0.55Ω at 20°c, what is the corrected valve ( Using the rule of thumb method ) to allow for conductor maximum operating temperature?
Any replies will be appreciated.

Hi i was just wondering if it was possible to put the end of a kettle lead onto a figure 8 power lead? I moved into a property which has the cables going through the wall for the tv. My tv does not take the figure of 8 lead but the kettle lead.
Thanks for any replys.
Hello Boys.
I had my assessment with Elecsa and i'm pleased to say I passed! Just thought I'd let you know the questions "he" asked me, so they may help anyone else taking the test.
