Hi !
Much talk of the use of type A, type B and Type F RCDs recently.
As we know all are specified at varying levels to ignore the blinding effects of transient DC currents, that are being superimposed on our AC circuits by modern technology.
But is there a means to measure the level of this...
Quick one.
Is there anything in the regs that state safe zones for external placement of pvc conduit ? I've looked and can't see anything specific. Reason I ask is the installation I'm doing is needing me to run conduit at one brick above damp course.
I can’t for the life of me find anywhere in the north west offering the C&G 2365 level 2 as an evening or weekend class, but then saw on the ECS card qualifications that they also accept the EAL level 2 as being the same grade as the C&G. A quick search shows Erudite Training in Stockport...

I start my level 2 next week as a mature student and I decided to do it at college instead of one of those intensive courses so hopefully I've made the right decision. The college hasn't been very helpful about what tools I need. They just said safety shoes, basic tool kit and no trackies. What...
