List of torque settings

[Zdb]

I don't suppose anyone has put together a spreadsheet with a table of torque settings for popular/common brands/devices?

Hoping to save some time if it's already been done and shared here


Many thanks

TBH you're better off checking up to date manufacturers information as things do change. A generic crib sheet off the net will never be updated and you would need to check for accuracy.

Had an instance a few years ago where the manufacturer originally stated 2Nm for their MCBs, NADER IIRC, but after a small fire they increased the setting to around 5Nm.

There’s normally a sticker inside “quality” consumer units with torque settings for mainswitch, mcb, rcbo neutral bar etc.....

from memory, mcb are 2.5, bars are 3.5???

which is fine, but my torque Wiha has marked numbers of 2.2, 2.4, 2.6 etc.
I need to set it half way between marks to get a point 5

How often does anyone check the accuracy / calibration of their torque screwdriver, drop it once and the calibration is more than likely out

Thanks. I notice that Schneider and Eaton were missing so I have attached them below for anyone that might find it useful

Is it not 2-white-knuckles for an MCB and 3 for a neutral bar or is that reserved for wet pants and compression fittings?

I used to work with a big guy who was a human torque wrench. Torque could be measured by the movement of his forearm - a defined twitch was 100ft/lb
