Hi
Doncaster EV ultra cable:
Does anyone know what the current capacity of these cables is given particular reference methods?
The spec sheet just says 'Max current' 45amps (for the 4mm) but it doesn't state the reference method.
The manufacturer does have a very handy cable calculator...
Hi all, I have been trying to work out why all the up stair sockets have voltage coming into the line but none of the neutrals.
The ring is on a 16amp mcb. Any ideas why?
Thank you in advance
I am carrying out a refurbishment job on this old panel board and fitting in a new panel board from Schneider. The current supply to this building is a 100amps BS88-2 Gg (assuming). I am planning to protect the outgoing submains with the NSX100 ML 2.2 set at 100 and 63 respectively. I don't know...
Hi,
I have a product in which 5v 2.5 amp adapter (input 230vac 0.2 amp max) used. The adapter is burning out sometimes usually when I connect it to the one of the phase (in 3 phase line where ac >30 hp motor is connected) carrying upto 50 amp current.
Now my question is why the adapters are...
So came across some old aluminium T&E yesterday, the smaller stuff with only 3 strands in the live, 3 in neutral and single strand for CPC.
I cant remember its maximum current capability.
Its been used for running an immersion tank on a B16 MCB, about 10m from the dis board, mostly under floor...
Hello All,
Iv been asked to pick up the remedials on someone else's EICR that was done last year on a school for Deaf Children. One of the items listed on the report is the conductors leading to the sub mains from the main panel are undersized. I popped the cover off to have a look and sure...
a question that i have to ask sorry if it seems daft in advance, when carrying out a PIR,EICR you come accross boards that dont have labels on them , do you put this on report as code 3 ? or do you just take the time to put a new label on the board ( assuming you have them to hand)
I got pulled over today by the council waste management jobsworth otherwise known as the Bath branch of the Gestapo.
It seems that I should have had a waste licence to take my scrap metal to the scrapper!
As until it arrives at the scrap yard and is processed it is waste and i should have...
Just started up on my own, haven't been asked to carry out an EICR yet, however I have, unbelievably, never found myself carrying one out, so feel I am a lacking in knowledge and experience at the moment to carry them out, should I get asked to.
Do you need to have a special qual to carry them...
Last year at night I was carrying out Electrical Inspection and Testing and Found the 300mm 4 core SWA sub main cable to a chapel was recording 0.09 ohms on carrying out high insulation resistance testing between phases. 25 thousand pounds later its rectified.
Would love to hear other people's...
hi
I've been asked to pick up a job where the previous builder went into liquidation and the property management company is asking me to complete the electrical works, relocate a fuseboard.
Everything the previous company has done is exceptionally neat but I'm concerned on the design front...
Anyone know of any information out their on the current caring capacity of old VIR cables, looks like they are between 16mm-25mm, so any info on the older imperial sizes would be useful
Thanks

Sorry lads but have to ask about price again.
I have been asked to carry out a Periodic Inspection on a commercial premises by a client.
They have a 3 phase board with 8 way board and is totally full. So 24 single circuits. They have no 3 phase circuits.
I am going to carry out the work...

I'm wiring a corn dryer up and the supply is into an isolator rated at 100a 3P N and Earth then straight into 6mm and 2.5 stranded singles going off in various directions to different MCBs, contractors etc
No fuse down between cable sizes. However this is uk new production. Adding up the various...
I'm looking at an install of a double oven cooker ... 11.3kW maximum demand ... and rather than use 10mm T&E for the final connection I have been looking at the CCC tables in Appendix 4
Table 4E2A on page 368 (3rd Amend of 17th) states I should be able to use a cable with 6mm CSA conductors...
Morning
The company that I work for has recently had an electrical inspection carried out. One of the findings consisted of 'ineffective overcurrent protection of cable due to rating of protective device and CSA of cable'
Basically a 100A isolator was feeding a 16mm SWA. The SWA conforms to BS...
