I'm possibly about to rewire a basement flat with a serious damp problem. Some of the walls will have the damp treatment done after I have finished (or after 1st fix, I'm not sure) but some have already had damp treatment. So, what do I need to do to maintain the integrity of the damp...

Any of you good people using the fein multi tool. I admit to being sceptical. Does any one use them and are they a viable alternative to having a comprehensive hand and power tool collection. Any thoughts ?
Kind regards all
Hi
I need help in the design of a 50kW PV system, 3 phase inverter so 50000W divided by 400V = 125A. 125A divided by the square root of 3 (1.732) =72.17A per phase. is this right?
