You'll find out when he does it. Which one do you think.
think he will pull both ?You'll find out when he does it. Which one do you think.
he will usually contact the supplier and asks for permission just curious s what fuse he will pullHe shouldn’t be pulling either, unless he has permission from the supplier.
(Or the seal fairies are smiling on him)
And if he’s crabbit when you ask him questions, then ask to work with someone who does want to teach you things.
next week just wanted to know what one he would pull so i have a bit knowledgeWhen are you starting the job?
I would use 80 ampcould 100A main switch be put on that
new main board what fuse will he pull thoForgot to finish my last post. I intended to also ask what the job was that was to be carried out?
You can trace the cable back to the fuse, the other fuse appears to supply another property or something else.new main board what fuse will he pull tho
Sorry, but what would be the point of that?I would use 80 amp
no upstairs might be next door tho and so he won’t need to disconnect the neutral it’s safe him just pulling the live fuseI assume the job is to replace that consumer unit, because as it stands, it’s rough.
If you’re upgrading the tails, then the neutral will have to be disconnected. Otherwise, no... pulling the fuse will sufficiently isolate.
Just pull the fuse that’s going through the meter.
The other fuse does appear to supply a cable that goes straight up- possibly to an upstairs flat (?).
