    2.5mm on 32A MCB

    Just wondering what folks would do if you came across this on your travels. 4mm radial sockets circuit, on 32A MCB. Two branches from the CU, one supplying 6 double sockets, wired entirely in 4mm, so fine. The other branch consists of a 1m run of 4mm to a double socket, then around 5m in 2.5mm...

    4mm 32a Radial In Trunking

    Changed a CU today and noticed the kitchen sockets were wired in 4mm t&e surface mounted in trunking and on a 32A breaker. Now, the CCC for this is strictly only 30A (ref.method B). Would anyone be overly bothered about this? Common sense tells me that it is unlikely this cable will be asked to...

    Feeding new 2 way board from 32a MCB

    Hi all, OK, so was sent to a job today for upgrading a kitchen. The existing mains was an older MEM board which the newer Eaton RCBO's wont fit. The only circuits being amended are the kitchen ring main (32 amp) and the lighting circuit (5 amp). The customer would not have been keen on...

    Has anyone any views on max Zs for say a type c 32a rcbo at 80% is 0.54 and 100% 0.68. I am currently testing a collage and all ring circuits are type c and I am exceeding 0.54 and 0.68 this is a TNCS system so to my knowledge table 41.5 in regs which tells us 1667 for 32a rcbo for TT systems...

    Why is a cooker circuit generally 6mm and 32a

    As above why is this as I have had a thought and a 20a 2.5 mm cable would be sufficient? Even in my new built it has an oven and hob both 32a radials for each on 6mm cable? Each with a 13a plug on the appliance as diversity shows around 10a max. so even with an upgraded appliance I don't see...

    Ideal 32a inline connectors

    Been to a job today "can you come and have a look at this please my sockets aren't working". DIY Dave has been in and extended a ring from a point where the client wanted a socket removing. New sockets now not working. So I proceed to chase around his bodged plastering. This is what I find.

    Is it possible to have 3 x male blue 32a c plugs to 1 x 63a 3ph socket

    Hi, Im new to this forum and need to pick someones brains. I bought a 3ph 63a Distro in a flightcase with dimmer packs, sockets and RCD. It works well in venues with 3ph but I would like to use it in smaller venues which only have single phase. I have seen a converter [TABLE="width: 678"] [TR]

    4mm in walls is <32 yet we use 32A mcb

    I know this has been around but how is it reconciled that 4mm in plaster (with or without capping) can be used with 32A MCB when tables say cable rating is less than 32A? Also: I can't get my head around why a single socket spur on a single socket spur on ring is different to one double socket...

    Spur from 32a mcb

    Morning all, As we know, you can run a spur on a ring final cct from the top of the 32a breaker. But can you run a single socket radial cct from a 32a breaker? essentially making it a spur but without the ring being present. Thanks
