    Mobile equipment not exceeding a rating of 32a for use outdoors.

    Could someone please give me examples of what this would cover. I'm assuming it's irrelevant to portable equipment like a lawn mower on a domestic installation and more to do with industrial. Thanks in advance.

    Pssc Test

    We're you testing the PFC or PSC?? Im assuming PFC from those readings. If I'm right it would suggest no earth. If you were doing PSC it would suggest the neutral isn't connected to earth at the supply transformer. Which I very much doubt

    Code for Armour of Swa not being earthed...

    Thanks for the helpful input everyone. No cores were sleeved and u had that as a C3. In two minds about the armour but C2 is the winner!

    Code for Armour of Swa not being earthed...

    It's certainly easy to rectify. Was just wondering on people's thoughts on codes for a condition report.

    Code for Armour of Swa not being earthed...

    The Swa is not connected to earth at all. The grey core is used as the cpc.

    Code for Armour of Swa not being earthed...

    3 core Swa feeding ip rated plastic sockets outdoors. He 3rd core of the Swa has been used as a cpc but the armour is not connected to earth; but has been made off with metal banjos. Would this warrant a C2 or C3? I'm assuming as the armour isn't extraneous a C3? ? Thoughts please ...

    Led Lamp still dim when 2 way + intermediate switches are off

    Landing light is not fully switching off when operating the 3 switches on the landing/hallway. A small voltage (less than 40v) is present between the switched live and neutral. After trying a new lamp it worked fine. Any ideas anyone??

    Strange loop values

    Someones had a right laugh throwing that ring in! And i fully agree with you anyway pal. Worst is fault finding when alterations have been made on a ring main and you end up with sockets going from one room to the next, back downstairs, upstairs etc etc. The joys of our job i guess!

    Upon finding nothing you should of thought 'maybe thats not the cable route' and followed the "non-logical" route :-)
