    Self Taping Screw and Washers

    Where to buy and what to buy. Main use for them is fixing FP200 into metal using P Clips and also screws for Door Contacts as 1” 8 are too big.

    Self Taping Screw and Washers

    I’m just after some advice as I’m looking to have a stock of self tapping screw and metal. Most would need to be an Inch or less and then some general washers.

    Adding a Fuse Spur on to a Consumer Unit Circuit

    No worries Tel. It’s been a while since I’ve had my head in Electrical Books since changing to Security.

    Adding a Fuse Spur on to a Consumer Unit Circuit

    Yes it’s a spur from a spur. Which I was always taught you couldn’t do.

    Two radials by the looks of it.

    Adding a Fuse Spur on to a Consumer Unit Circuit

    Socket circuit has a switch fuse spur that then has our unswitched fuse spur added on to it. As far as I know you can’t do. I’m not sure what the spur from the live side even relates to.

    Adding a Fuse Spur on to a Consumer Unit Circuit

    One of the ones today was it’s okay for our alarm panel to work from a switched FCU to a unswitched FCU as long as it’s spurred from the live side! 🤯 I just didn’t have the heart to tell him that he was talking absolute rubbish.

    Ever feel as though your being setup to fail.

    If I wasn’t in the position of buying a flat I would of jumped ship. You’ve got to love some of the people you work with.

    Ever feel as though your being setup to fail.

    Regarding the if I’m happy doing the job. It’s okay and I prefer doing the CCTV side of it and wouldn’t mind moving into Home Automation. There isn’t many companies around Liverpool that do it as a service. It’s expensive and specialist. I do have my Level 2 and 3 2365 and only moved to Fire and...

    No apparently they booked other jobs in. As the supervisor said it should take half a day after a brief but short visit.

    Ever feel as though your being setup to fail.

    I probably won’t change their minds. As they aren’t open to suggestions. I do try and plan the jobs but when your given no real spec and a hopeless deadline, only so much can be done. Also pay is not even salary it’s NMW. Expecting an awful lot for min wage. Even an engineer when I mentioned it...

    Ever feel as though your being setup to fail.

    I agree with that everyone is saying. Our place have the habit of thinking I should work to the same speed as someone with over 20 years experience. Which I’ve had multiple arguments about as not everyone is the same or works the same and just because someone says it should take this long...

    Ever feel as though your being setup to fail.

    It’s just annoying as you feel as though you are being used as a scapegoat. All they say is we lost money on that job. You need to speed up or do things quicker. End of the day someone is paying a professional to do a job. Good work is not cheap and cheap work is not good. But you’ve never...

    Ever feel as though your being setup to fail.

    I’ve been in the Fire and Security Industry arounf 3 years now and have my qualifications. I was given an Install of a Panel change and Keypad and Speaker. Now our so called supervisor of 30 years said it’s only half a day. Long story short it was a full day. Lots of issues, took a whole day...

    Adding a Fuse Spur on to a Consumer Unit Circuit

    We’re both doing the install. I’m not added the circuit to the consumer unit. As I’m not qualified and neither is the other chap.

    Adding a Fuse Spur on to a Consumer Unit Circuit

    What certification? This is the whole argument and why I’ve refused to even do it.

    Adding a Fuse Spur on to a Consumer Unit Circuit

    Exactly. That’s my point. I’ve my level 2 and 3 2365. But that doesn’t mean I’m qualified. But our place don’t care.
