Ok, so I've got a client who's happy to pay for the JCC downlights and the JCC adaptor plates - BUT when I checked the existing downlight holes they measure at 155-160mm in diameter!
The JCC's are spec'ed up to 135mm diameter
So my question is are their any similar products that can accomodate...
Hi guys,
I was just wondering if anyone would be able to help me in the right direction. I'm out in afghanistan working on 50hz systems and we are currently re-wiring a number of buildings (Including the sub mains). After applying diversity to each building we've calculated that a 3 phase 32a...

It's not been used properly as a lot of it has been N/A'd when clearly it shouldn't have.
Anyway's my query is this, for...

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...

We're organising a structural and asbestos survey but I think we'll also need a commercial electrical survey and some help designing the array itself.
If anyone's got experience at this level or used such...
