Hi guys, I'm currently revising for my 2391 and kind of confused on the temperature factors for the Zs values
The BBB give Max Zs which are 100% values with a max operating temperature of 70c.
The OSG and GN3 give values to 80% which are when tested at ambient temp of 10c according to page 146...
I've a money-no-object customer who needs three flood/uplights replaced. Any recommendations for a really solid, well-built unit that comes with a guarantee? I need these to look good and last.
Hi all,
A few months ago we had a Triton Martinique 8.5kw shower installed. We've noticed that the temperature seemed quite low. Its what I'd consider lukewarm even when using the higher heat button and turning the heat dial up to a max of 10. The max temperature we get is 36 degrees celsius...
Hi,
A baseboard heater in my house emits a short buzzing sound every 30 seconds. It seems to happen only when the room is near the temperature I've set on my thermostat, that is, only when the heater is keeping the room at a certain temperature, and not when it's working hard to raise the...

My Neff oven is approx 10 years old and has worked normally,until about a few months ago when it has started to trip on RCD when at high temperature…190 deg+.The oven is used regularly….does the thermostat need replacing, or heating elements or a new oven or RCD which has become too sensitive...
What I can't seem to get any information on is, 'does increasing the heat cause more electricity, if so what are the temperature ratings of the chromel & Alumel' wires?
Hello guys, I am using Shinko BCS2R00-00 temperature controller for a packing machine. The indicator shows that the output is on but there is no voltage output from the controller output terminal. So, the mould was not heat up. I have change to a new temperature controller, but still have the...
Would you consider a single phase Shower Pump Motor operating with a temperature high enough to burn finger tips touching the motor body, to be too high.
Shower pump stopped during shower, checked various things. Fuse ok etc. Although the motor as said by the manufacture to have thermal...
Hi, The heater over temp protection (bi-metal) switch on my Cleverspa has failed open circuit. If I link it out, the heater still works. As expected, the manufacturer hasn't replied. So, can anybody advise the type / part number if this part; or advise the temperature at which this over-temp...

Hi all
I haven’t done much of anything with electrics since secondary school (long time) and hoping someone might just double check what I’m saying isn’t totally wrong!
Im building a keg system for home brew using an old chest feeezer. To regulate the temperature I’m using an ink bird ITC 1000...

I am looking at a scenario of temperature compensation in a text book (Practical Guide to Inspection, Testing and Certification of Electrical Installations, 5th Ed. by Christopher Kitcher). In the example (Scenario 2, pp 128-129) the measured value of R1 + R2 is adjusted for temperature effects...
Hi,
I've had a few occasions where a 3 pin plug or the switch socket outlet get burnt. This usually happen to chiller unit.
The cable was properly size up according to the drawn current and also well above 13 Ampere when those single phase 3 pin plug are used.
The trouble usually happens when...
My 92' Firebird that I just acquired will not start. I bypassed VATS security
with resistors so the security light now shuts off. I replaced my positive
battery lead that was shot and the only thing that happens when I turn the
key is the temp gauge fluttering. The relay only has 0.5 constant...

I took this Lucedo 10w bulb out earlier as I wanted another the same, it was bloody hot.
Tested temperature with an eBay IR gun and it’s at 98 degree’s. is this normal?! I don’t have much experience with lighting.
Hi, looking for some advice.
The wife recently said the oven doesn't cook food the same way it used to (recently a chicken pie came out cold in the middle). So I bought a oven thermometer, put the oven on 200c and after about 7 minutes the light went out. I checked the oven thermometer but it...
Hi, as an aspiring sparky I'm needing help with the temperature adjustment formula for Zs. I'm using GN3 (17th). I understand that the values given in Appendix A - Table A4 (for BS 60898) are assumed at a test ambient of 10C whereas the values in BS7671 are at the "normal operating temperature"...
I have a solar pv system that has an Iboost fitted to send excess generation to my hot water tank. Combined with my solid fuel back boilers we almost always have hot water.
I also have a cold mains fed 11kW shower - not a power shower. I would like to feed the shower with luke warm water via a...
