Ref jimmy, us? What's that all about, is this forum all for you guys that have been on here a while and new people like me are seen as outsiders? I've seen soe of te comments people receive on here and I think it's disgusting. Who do people lie you think you are
My reply may have been blunt..but I stand by it lets reread your OP...
The other day I had to connect a static caravan so the house holders can live in it while their house is being refurbed, the house is tncs What does the caravan section say in the regs ?
no I know your not ment to export the earth and I understand why, so I installed a earth rod, 78 ohms. What has exporting earth got to do with it ? you understand what ?
the main board in the caravan has 30ma rcd, but I could not bring my self not to connect the 3rd core in the swa to bring the earth fom the house also. I know the situation that if the dno's neutral fails this earth could end up running the neutral to the house etc. So you completely ignore the regs, do as you think fit ?
but what's worse? Someone might die ? is that bad enough for you ?This earth, now become neutral burnt in the swa or, some one leaning on the outside of the caravan, which would be at 230v with the dno's neutral fault and stood on the ground, possible wet?
they would then complete the circuit from the bonded caravan through them to ground and back to the supply transformer or dno's next earth spike.
any comments? Yes if your carrying out electrical work only do that scope of work you are compatant to do, clearly in this case you are not, and in answer to your question " Who do you think you are" I am someone who takes great pride in the professional standards that electrical installation work deserves, and don't take too kindly to 'Sparks' that feel they can do as they please just because they 'Can't resist it'
I don't apologise for being blunt electricity kills
