Sorry about that!!!

So, if you want to re-upload your pics then great, if not, give us something new!


Cheers!!

Why would you not? You're going to lose 1 circuit and all the rest are still operational

ok thanks,thats what i thought but i didn't know if there was another reason i didn't know about,no harm in asking ay?.Im still in collage so im getting into the habit of asking lots of questions,no offence meant by it.Obviously it offers the minimum inconvenience in the event of a fault but i thought it was a bit pricey for people nowadays.
Nice job by the way

The only really stupid question is the one you think is too stupid to ask

i think it will come to that with Regs eventually but i had the opportunity to get this board at a good price, its belts and braces but like trev1 said, why wouldn't you?

[SparkyDips]

how do those sockets in the last pic above the work bench get away with being <100mm clearance?

 

[SparkyDips]

they are fitted on angled dado rail, so are facing up and out slightly.

 

[oldAL]

ah, OK,that makes some sense.
still be tight on the 100mm though I would have thought,
is that an actual reg, or simply good practice?

 

[The Ranger]

I'll put my **** on the block without looking and hazard a guess that it's not actually a Reg!

I've been known to be wrong in the past!!

 

[oldAL]

TBH that would be my thoughts on it too.

Something like this i would guess?? This stuff is by Marshal Tuffnel...

 

[gottahugenoggin]

when you refere to 100mm,is that suggesting they may/may not have to be 100mm from the work surface? sorry but i dint warn you all i ask lots of questions.Now you know how i feel when my 6 year old bombards me with a million and one questions a 5:30am that he already knows the answers to...sorry :90:
