Why do they have the same bs en number? Allways fround this odd, and surely if they where unique to each other it would save the confusions on test sheets with 3 phase feeds.
Needing to install a catenary wire across to an out building. Cant attach it to the gable of the buidling as the overhead supply is already taking that position up. So to get the height and to clear the eaves of the building i need some kind of stand of bracket and a pole to attach the wire to...
It would seem that whenever the topic of bathroom extractor fans comes up, triple pole isolation has always been a rather debated subject. There are those of you who talk about not having to fit an isolator if there's a window and there are those of you who say that an isolator should always be...
I have wired a single phase pump that has been supplied with a 3 phase mcb. the pipe fitters desperately need the pump on, will a 3 phase mcb break a single phase load, just as a temporary measure?
Hi. I need a 4 pole RCBO (TPN) 63A 30mA in a 4 unit device.
Anyone know of one? Manufacturer doesn't matter as long as it will fit in a 4 unit enclosure.
Thanks

Can anyone tell me how to wire a modular contactor.
I need to connect 1 - permanent live, 2 - Switched live and 3- the energising switch live.
I have the contactor with A1 , 1 AND 3 on top and A2 , 2 AND 4 on th bottom ??
Apologies if this seems silly but can anyone enlighten me as to the meaning of this function? Does it simply light and buzz when one of the cables you are testing has a link to >100v (even though the circuit being tested is dead)? I find this buzzing when I'm attempting to establish continuity...

This question is mainly for academic interest - my neon screwdriver isn't rated for 11kV :D
A colleague recently asked about neutral earthing so I explained all about TT, TN, -C, -S, -C-S, etc. Shortly afterwards, I happened to be staying at a place fed by overhead power lines, so, perfect...
