Increase mcb capacity. Notifiable?

[Meggerman]

Safe from accusations of failing to notify work.
I can't remember the exact wording at the moment but I think the terms and conditions of ELECSA registration are that all jobs must be registered with them via their notification system, I don't think they specify that you only register part p notifiable jobs.

But in any case nobody bothers to police part P so just take the money and get back on Tonto!

If it is not a notifiable job there is nothing to notify.

Wasn't Tonto the native american assistant (who usually bailed the lone ranger's sorry arse out)
Fruedian slip mate?

Well I'm not old enough to remember any of that and an old college friend of mine has a horse called Tonto, so there!

Why on earth would anyone want to notify every single job?!?!
These schemes etc have really got some of you lot tucked up in their pockets!
In this case, if it is a broken RFC, the Electrician fixes it, tests out OK, fit a 32A breaker, safer than when it was found, job done!
Why create unnecessary admin/expense at the Council and another (however small) justification for the Schemes existence.

Safe from who or what???? Why don't we just notify every job we do just to be safe. Tests and competence provide safety, not a notification. This may well just be a broken ring that is to be repaired. Test and certification definatly.

If that were the case, then it would be a broken ring, wouldn't it? It wouldn't be two separate legs (at present) supplied from a 20A OCPD. Or, it may be a broken ring which was designed (for whatever reason) to be supplied from a 20A OCPD.

Either way, it is what it is at present - which according to the OP is two radials fed from a 20A OCPD, and could have been that way for a very long time.

Nobody, least of all me, is talking about notifying every job. The OP asked the question of whether it is notifiable work to change an OCPD - and in my opinion it is, for the reasons stated. Simples.

Come back JRC all is forgiven :grouphug:

Thanks for the information! My client has decided to go with a new CU. I can let you know the outcome of the fault when I start the work.

Thanks for your interest.

And EXACTLY how is this going to help? Are you going to answer the numerous suggestions to fully test the circuit(s) in question??
