    Anyone fancy a chuckle?

    It's genius isn't it?! Had to take that screw in the L bracket out to open the door, hinged from left so now can only open it about 2 inches. Managed to reset breaker on RHS, anything else going to need to remove the whole thing.

    Anyone fancy a chuckle?

    Installed this board about Feb last year - small cellar to the side of a bar in a nightclub. At point of installing, it was to house a few small kegs for the limited amount of draft beer they sell and some pre-mix cocktail rubbish that feeds into a touch screen cocktail machine. Went to do an...

    Zs @ DB very high

    Yes I 100% get what you're saying, but there's probably a lot on the site that needs addressing. The supply is the farmer's problem & up to my customer whether they want to argue the ---- with him. Even if they're happy to pay it's not theirs to start messing with so I've got no power to start...

    Zs @ DB very high

    To be honest PC I didn't do them - MWC doesn't request them, I've arranged access later this week and I'll have a look and should be able to trace the cable back then & do an R1+R2 & try and find the supply to do a Ze. Gut feeling is long, but I'll try the PFC/PSSC trick just to make sure I'm...

    Zs @ DB very high

    Agreed. He collared me without my MFT about the lights, the power circuit has been isolated, they've been notified of the danger & I've been paid, so I'm not quite at the repent stage yet, but I would like to sort it for them (ideally without too much of a ballache).

    Zs @ DB very high

    Hi all, Went out to fit some LED lights last Friday for a customer who's taken on a small workshop to be mostly used as storage. All fairly straightforward until I came to test for the minor works cert - got a Zs reading at the Db of 2.24 ohms - had a quick look and it's only got a 6mm supply...

    Anybody recommend good calibration services?

    I don't know if it's just me but the prices of getting testers calibrated has seemed to have gone through the roof. I appreciate the kit isn't cheap, I got a quote for some myself a few years back, but when the guys drop in to do it in the wholesalers I've also seen how long it takes. I've just...

    Portable cabin wiring

    Does anybody know if there's a minimum csa for final circuits in a portakabin type unit? They're static, used as a site office & canteen - I've got something in my head about 2.5mm2 tri-rated but not got my books with me, am I getting confused with trailers? These have been done in 1.5 & 2.5 t&e.

    CPCs in wrong holes inside consumer unit...x8!

    Hi everyone, I've recently done some testing on some welfare trailers used on building sites on behalf of the rental company at their base. Mixture of fixed wire/PAT/FAT to make sure they're going out to the customer OK. I've done 8 so far and they were brought brand new 12 months ago and I've...

    Hi Andy, they sent me 2 part codes - however every site I check says they're discontinued, not keen on putting used in off fleabay

    MCB then RCD

    :p very much above the remit of a PAT tester! Won't be attempting myself - our sparks will be installing/testing/cert-ing, just like to make sure they're not bull****ing me at times, especially when it's a scenario I've not seen before. Installation is about 35-40 yrs old

    MCB then RCD

    Hi everyone, hope you can help Recently we've completed an EICR on a commercial property and it's thrown up some issues with the lighting. The installation method is rough as, T&E just chucked on top of the ceiling tiles as we've all seen a million times before so we'll be sorting this as part...
