Hi everyone, I need some advice about changing the micro switch on my car key please. I'm not an electrician but I have a soldering kit as I build little robots sometimes as a hobby.
The button stopped clicking, probably the spring in it is done now and I want to change it. The board has some...
Hello,
I have a Kitchen Exhaust Hood that an "electrician" tried to wire and has a disaster.
Basically, I have 2 motors, 2 on/ off switches, 2 micro switches, and 1 heat sensor.
When the heat sensor is activated, motor 1 needs to turn on regardless if the switch is turned on or off.
When...
If so..... I have some questions but it seems to be a bit of a dark art! Have a client who wants to install one as he has a water course suitable, but unsure of the various combinations generation voltage / inverters / batteries / etc for UK use
I want to discharge capacitor in micro seconds, In order to to that I used very low resistance coil but When capacitor is discharged,
SCR kinda blow up, meaning the positive & negative got connected together because of low resistance.
What can we place in negative terminal to make sure that...
Hey. I'm setting up a micro hydro system and thought some guidance would be nice to avoid unnecessary experimentation.
This is my first version but the idea is to use the water to push a pelton wheel to turn an alternator. However with this first test i am only reading about 2 volts off the...
50 to 100 MICRO amperes?
Would that be the same amount from say a watch battery or something? Just studying from the link below as night time isolation is all the time I have at the moment and I know their are some highly intelligent peeps around here that could put this in layman terms...
Hi Guys,
We are working with a client who has for a number of years used a 10Kw Bergy wind turbine for household power...with lead-acid batteries( which did extremely well) plus a 10Kw generator as a auto backup service.
The new power system will see a proper micro grid in place with a new...
Hey Guys,
I have recently decided that I would like to take up an ambition of mine and start my path into teaching. I have booked onto an assessors course and applied to a few posts for college lecturers. I have just had a response saying that my application has been successful and now I have...

Hi guys,
I have an Aeon Labs Micro Dimmer for lights. The instructions tell me to install this behind the wall switch and this is probably by far the easiest place to install it, however, I have a feeling there isn't going to be enough room behind the switch.
The main power comes into the...
Hello,
I've got a load of recessed down lights to fit. We have been thinking of going JCC Firegaurd LED6, but we need the tilt version for this project, which will come quite expensive.
Now, at the whole salers we've just been looking at Enlite E8 and they're significantly cheaper, with great...
Hi not been on here for ages. Decided to put some solar panels on my house and was going to use some A E micro inverters. Does anyone have any experience with them?
This posting may be of interest to anyone continuing to use Enecsys micro inverters:
The Enecsys micro inverters use a DC to DC boost converter to provide the approximately 550V DC required for the output stage. Under normal operating conditions when the units are generating and the sun is...
Guys I'm a maintenance electrician and spent years in the testing game too but never done anything on cameras etc.
We think we have a nosey neighbour who intrudes round the back garden regular nothing sinister just snooping and wanted to catch them at it.
Might be wrong but we want to put...
