    IR Tests & Fault Finding

    Hi fellow electricians, I'll get straight to the point. How low do the readings for an IR test need to be on 250V or 500V scale before a 30mA RCD or 32A MCB trips when the circuit is live and in operation and where would I find that information? I know it will trip straight away with a dead...

    straight to I&T....

    Probably a stupid question but is it ever done to get into inspection and testing with a very small amount of practical experience achieved? Enjoying this part of the C&G course as I am it seems a shame that it would have to be a minimum of five years before I could do it again. Fair enough...

    Bathroom extract fan installation, flex outlet or not?

    Hello all, I've been reading posts on here about bathrrom extracts, and got me thinking. Do you guys install a flex outlet adjacent to them or do you simply go straight in to the fan. I've always used a flex outlet, as these things never tend to last over 2/3 years and it makes replacement...

    oven with 13amp socket

    I have an electric oven with a fused 13amp plug connected. If I remove the plug would it be ok to change the wire from the cooker to a 4 or 6mm t and e and wire it straight into the cooker outlet plate?

    RCBO's

    Why do manufacturers give RCBO's curly neutral cables? When you fit them into the board they look a right mess, especially when there are a lot of them. If they were given straight neutral cables you would be able to dress them all neatly down to the neutral bar just as you do with your...
