Hi all
This is really late I know but I have my 2 day workshop in Cardiff starting tomorrow and I don't know what time it starts! I am doing it with Olci. Has anyone done the 2365 202 2 day workshop in Cardiff and know what time the workshops start?
Thanks in advance if anyone has the answer...
Hi guys. I recently applied for a electrical apprentice and luckily a letter for an interview came through.
Now I'm currently 19years of age studying my 2330 level 3. Into the end of my course. Would that not make me too qualified to be a apprentice.
Just needs some information. What does I...
Im doing a job in a 10 year old house nothing major just extending a cooker circuit and adding a few downlights. the cu has the rings on rcd with two spare ways, can i simply put the cooker / lights mcbs onto the rcd side ? sorry for the amateurish question :yes:
I've not posted on here for a while and debated whether to with this or not as I don't want to appear to be gloating etc. But it's far from a gloating post, more of 'you can do it'.....
But here goes anyway..
The moral of the story is really one of don't give up at all no matter the age or knock...
Hi just a quick question.......I have a switch which is being used for a roller shutter door, it simply has 1 wire for common and 1 each for up and down. I belled out between common and both directions to check it was working fine which it was, so it is working how it should.........it might...
Hi all thanks for taking the time to check in.
basically I'm trying to source the plastic studs you sometimes find on main fuse heads after a knockout is taken out for extra tails to a sub board then later when removed there's an exposed hole with access to the live terminal.ive looked...
I got laid off from a decent firm about 4 and half years ago been self employed since then and managed to scrape along. Been out of work now since Christmas. Getting hacked off with the constant battle to try and pick up bits of work. My missus says I have to leave this trade and get a new...
Hi guys,
Just doing an EIC for a recent dis board change, I also installed a 50a (type b 60898) shower circuit for an 11.5KW shower. I am looking through my regs trying to find whether it comes under the 5s disconnection time...? I know 0.4s is for circuits less than 32A and non-distribution...
BE CAREFUL IF SHOPPING IN ASDA OR TESCO'S
Just had this forwarded to me...................be Carefulout there
Over the last month I have become a victim of a cleverEastern European scam while out shopping. Simply dropping into Asda for a bitof shopping turned out to be quite an experience...
I am trying to measure the voltage at two wires for a brake on a motor
The supply comes via an inverter and via a computer
This machine was bought with the motor missing and the motor supplier has asked if the supply to the brake is ac or dc
Have measured it with two different meters and they...
Hi guys had a conversation with the boss in the office after work today about a zs I got on a 32A c type rcbo bs 61009, the earthing system is TN-C-S, he said he wasn't worried I got a zs reading of 0.90 even though a type c 32A rcbo has a max zs of 0.72 his words were "it's just like a TT...
Hi when testing an rcbo trip times with 2 vapour proof fittings switched on the times were 378 on times 1 and 154 on times 5 but when i test the rcbo with the vapour proof fittings switched off the times are 21 times 1 and 19 times 5 has anyone had this before. i am using a calibrated robin...
Hi everyone,
On the drawing it says the system's TN-C-S with declared Ze = 0,008 Ω and prospective fault current declared as 50kA
When I calculate If = Uo / Zs = 230 / 0,716 = 321 A . With this value there's no way to match with 10A curve at fig. 3A6 (appendix 3)
But if I calculate the...
Hi
I looked in the forums for voltage optimisation
And saw that at home, the average saves from voltage optimisation is around 8%,
Do you know, what is the average save in industry?
Thanks
I'll be pulling the circuit apart anyway..
However, Thought Id run it past the forum before I do.
Been testing today prior to CU change soon.
When testing one of the 2 RFC's at the house all was going well, until i got very high readings at about 4/5 of the socket outlets upstairs.
I was...
