So DNO attended today, confirmed supply issue, could be possibly a dodgy joint on the overheads, or an issue with sewage pumping station further down the lane on the same phase.
I’d be keen to hear your thoughts on 1 of my customers problem.
Split board, TT system. Located in a village, neighbours report no problems.
Customer getting random tripping of sometimes 1, sometimes both RCCD’s. Totally random, no particular reason. I’ve tested the installation, nothing...
Hi Sarah,
I’m really busy at the moment, which is great. Plenty of local work to keep me busy. Thank you for your message, hope you find someone soon.

Hello, Just re-qualified as a DI, with 18th, buildings regs etc. Now looking for employment, I’m also booked onto an EV course in early September. Originally a 15th Ed. holder, but driven commercially for last 20 yrs . I’ve kept up local domestic jobs. With mostly domestic experience, but I’ve...
I’ve just made the decision NOT to go the veto route. Controversial I know...but decided to go with Wera 2Go instead. The thinking behind this is only to carry into the job what you need/ want, and leave the rest in the van. Started buying them, cheapest place seems to be Amazon, followed by...
Thank you for all your advice and solutions.
The rod is to be replaced, at he moment it’s just sat in a pile of soil about 15” high. Apparently been like this for over 5 years! So 1st job obviously.
Having talked to original spark, his work was meant to be a temporary solution, to be upgraded...
I’m not putting a new circuit to the outbuilding. It’s already in situ. The only modifications I’ll be doing is adding the rcd, and switched fuse. Then the new cu . Somebody else is testing and signing off.

The swa is approx 12m, already installed. I had it in mind , based on past...
Evening gentlemen,
TT System, previous spark fitted new metal CU. I’ve got an outbuilding to wire, it’s fed by a 10mm swa.
I’m going to be putting in a time delayed 100ma RCD before the main CU. The swa feed to the outbuilding cu will be fed via a switched fuse. My question is, do I split the...
After this mornings site visit, all is good. Customer neglected to tell me there is a shed with power and DB less than a meter away from said tree house, fed with 6mm SWA. All good, tested supply to shed, all figures good. So a nice simple job, 1 twin socket, 2 led floods outside, internal leds...
It’s definitely a tree house, not a tree hut!! I’m trying to get the customer to go for solar etc, but having just been sent some photos of the site, I’m hoping he’s going to go for solar etc. I don’t think he’ll want me digging up his immaculate lawn. But we’ll see tomorrow!!
I was thinking...
Morning all, I’ve been asked to provide power for a decent sized domestic tree house. Power useage will be lighting and 1 13a socket , to be used for powering radio, cd etc. Probably going to be fed via swa buried, with 30ma rcd on supply side. My question is should I add a supplemental earth...
