    Protecting cables against external factors

    Hi, Whilst it is not best practise, is there any harm in a 10mm G&Y cable running along the outside of a building. The cable is currently tied to existing conduit, (there is no space in the conduit to run additional cable) and is unlikely to encounter any impact in its location. So the only...

    Calculating voltage drop on larger SWA cables

    Hi All A question I've asked many a lecturer and none of them have come up with the same answer. When looking at the current carrying capacities for SWA cables, from about 35mm onwards you get an r, x, z value. What are these and which one do you use when carrying out voltage drop...

    Conduit factors

    Good afternoon Gentlemen.I'm in the process of rewiring my garage so that I can join one of those fantastic schemes for my Part P.Question is this. looking at the OSG about conduit factors (Table 5D), it says about bends. Is this just bends in the actual conduit or does this include such things...

    Applying Correction factors for VOC

    Hi Wonder if you can help think it's me being a bit dim but can't help that. Normally I compare the calculated VOC against the measured VOC however on the Panels I normally used on the Spec sheet it has a Module Temperature coefficient which is normally -85mV/deg. Now we have started using...

    ring main grouping factors

    hi, when i installed the cables for a ring in my own house i clippped the cables in the channeled wall leaving a cable width between (no correction factors). if you run the cable in pvc conduit which seems about 100 times quicker surely correction factors for grouping need to be used (0.8)...

    Ring Final Circuits & Correction Factors

    Something I've wondered about for a while... If you had both legs of a RFC, in say T&E or singles, running in the same conduit, so basically touching, would you need to apply the appropriate correction factor for grouping?
