Hi guys I need to produce a set of as installed drawings for an install we recently completed
It's nothing fancy, a storage facility with approximately 10 circuits
Is there any software/programmes out there which would be able to produce pdf's without breaking the bank?
Anybody help with the sizing of power cables when the cable is part run in a duct.
The supply in question is 630A, so it makes a big difference!
If the cable run is 40m where 8m is in a duct, do you have to rate the cable as if it was in a duct for its entire length?
The supply in question is...
Hi All,
I read through all threads and can't seem to find this topic so apologies if I've missed one where is has been discussed.
Got a phone call from a customer today saying that when they went to submit their annual ROCs reading from their generation meter, it was only showing 34 units. The...
Hi Guys
Can anyone let me know who I can contact to discuss this installation? I work for a company in laundry industry. We (not me but our install team - most clever ladies in the office and bunch of subcontractors) installed washer in the riser. I escalated this issue 3 months ago during...
I have installed several domestic 3 and 4kW PV systems over the last five or six years and a few 10KW systems but i dont have experience with larger commercial installs. I have now been asked by a previous customer to provide an estimate to install a 30kW system on his factory. He has already...
We've got a shot blasting booth with a steel working platform inside, bolted to this platform are 4 x LED floodlights (mounted inside a steel enclosure with tempered glass door).
They are wired up with SWA cable which is clipped to the underside of the platform.
Is there any regulations...
I have a customer who wants two brick lights installing in a wall either side of his electric gates. The Electric gate installer has installed flex from the control box to roughly where the lights would go, part of which is buried. Obviously I'm not comfortable about sending 240v down this...
Just bought a xpelair 12v humidistat 100mm fan to go in zone 1 and reading instructions it asks for a d/p switch. Is that the regs ? I assumed it could be wired as normal i.e. live from light switch and perm live etc .. having looked into it a bit more it seems i could go 230 v if rcd protected...
I have a situation whereby a new build property has had a green electrical cabinet installed at its boundary, and a new 3ph PME supply installed.
There is a 4c 25mm SWA from here to the detached garage, which will house the plant room (3ph ground source heat pump, 3ph PV inverter), and then...
Hello everyone and thanks in advance for any advice. I hope this is an appropriate place to post this thread.
I live in a council flat and had a new bathroom fitted some months ago. A new fuse box was installed at the same time. Ever since we have had problems with the power cutting out...
Been asked to replace an old consumer unit, PV installed so bonding etc up to scratch.
House supply is TNCS, however with the PV wiring the inverter (Fronius) is on its own earth stake! So that makes 2 earthing systems in close proximity! Why would they want to earth stake the inverter?
I received a call from a person who was not a customer of mine asking to connect up his 8 kW PV system.
Its a new build and the modules were installed when the scaffolding was up, this was several months ago.
System is 2 x ABB PVI 3.6-TL-OUTD inverters connected to 32 x 250 watt modules. The...
We have a convenience store and are having a new suspended ceiling installed but we are also having 16 light fittings installed. I believe the wiring is okay and I think we will be going for LED fittings. I just wondered if anyone can advise on the price roughly just so I have an idea.
Hi there,
I was just looking to find out what would be the most appropriate reference method to use.
the distribution circuits leave the fuse board in 3 meters of trunking, then onto basket most of the ciruicts at lower lever then come down the wall in conduit which has been pre installed in...
Hello,
I recently had house re-wired which included bathroom.
While the wiring for an extractor fan / isolation switch for one has been installed no actual extractor fan has been. I was wondering whether this is required to for the Electrician to sign-off/for regulations?
(My builder...
Yeah, a buddy of mine sold his house and bought himself a few hundred hectares in the middle of nowhere about 6 months ago. I haven't heard a peep out of him for 6 months then out of the blue he's Captain Hospitable. Come for a ride up on your bike he says, spend a few days he says, don't worry...
Hello. New to this forum stuff so hopefully this makes sense. I've recently installed a 10mm 3core cable (H07FN-R) to power a 12kw electric boiler. On full power the boiler is drawing 46Amps. I'm a bit concerned as the cable is omitting a slight heat when drawing this load, was just wondering if...
