Spur with two sfcu on it

[Lighting]

Hi all is this ok to run two sfcu like this ?


Or should i run it like this

 

[TaffyDuck]

Second one

engaged mouth before brain .......................there

No need to run it 2.5...
1.5 will do

 

[Snapester]

The first one is fine

 

[mickys86]

Haha all the different answers..... Goes back in the arms to see Malcolm's other thread

Obviously 2.5mm from the socket to spur. 1.5 after the spur should be fine but if ya got the 2.5 handy...... I very rarely have 1.5 in the van

 

[TaffyDuck]

See OSG 1st one isn`t fine.

 

[Snapester]

Appendix 15 in Green Book shows no issues? Why do you need the 13a FCU at the beginning if the switches are FCU's with 3amp fuses in?

 

[mickys86]

See OSG 1st one isn`t fine.

You got a page number to look at?

 

[jumpin jax]

Is it a Ring final?

 

[ezzzekiel]

Sigh, yes either one is fine really but first option probably the best no need for fusing down to 13a first if your fusing down to 3a

See OSG 1st one isn`t fine.

In wich case can you give us an explanation as to why not, I'll be very interested in your reasoning

Admitedly I`m assuming the socket it on a ring as apposed to a spur from a radial

Well its a spur, and unfused at its source, therefore as i understand it. OSG Page 68 (7.2.2)

" A non-fused spur feeds only one twin socket outlet or one permanently connected item of electrical equipment"

 

[mickys86]

Yea but it's fused with the 3a sfu??
Maybe you should look at the pics again. Neither picture is showing a spur that isn't fused
