Hi all,
First post here so go steady.
Recently installed a small radial circuit in my garage with 2.5, took it from a B16 breaker run through 20mm conduit on a wall. Tested everything with my megger with everything testing ok, happy days.
Couple of days later fired up my nail gun, on the 4th nail (roughly), it trips the 16A MCB. I know the nail gun will have a quick inrush of current as its a quick firing, so do you think changing it from a B type to a C type is a good option?
Perhaps upgrading it to a C20? Any advice would be appreciated
Cheers
