Help needed on CU Upgrade

[Des 56]

Why have you decided to load the one rcd with both radial circuits,which presumably are supplying all your sockets and on 32 amp mcb (4mm assumed) ? What is the reasons for this decision

My post was neither sarcasm or a snotty comment,it was a question asked with the industry we work in and the practices we carry out in mind

I have the greatest respect for our armed forces wherever they be,however this forum is for electrical discussion and comment and it can never be assured that the replies are positive only

Electricians under training read these threads and where poor or bad practice is observed it should be highlighted so that they are not assumed as usual

Sorry to ask Aquaman, but are you a spark?
just that your question is quite a basic one and I'm not certain if you should be changing a consumer unit.

Best advice is to get a competent sparky in and confess to what you've done so far. It'll be the cheapest way out of the mess you're in!

Sarcasm and snotty comments = I was injured in Afghan so you can sleep easy, so help me please, if not, go serve in Helmand for 6 months and I will think about giving you some advice on how to stay alive.......!

What on earth has this got to do with anything?
I have the utmost respect for you guys and the very difficult job you do, I, as a sparks, would appreciate the same respect for the important work we do!

I really can't see what Helmand has to do with this.
if fred bloggs were to say that he flew the Apollo 13, and build Noah's Ark (which he didn't incase you are wondering) it doesn't make him any more qualified to fit a fusebox
I don't think you would like me to be your right hand man in Helmand, because I'm qualified to wire up a fusebox.

never heard the saying "Everyman to his trade?"
please give electricity the respect it deserves. It was killing people before bullets in Helmand.

You can edit your post mate, but it you cant edit the quoted ones.

You are not the only one on these forums that has had operational service. I personally have enough to share about, but you dont openly proclaim it on a public forum. The sympathy is at reunions, st georges day, and remembrance for me. Thats where i reflect. Not here!!!!!!

If you want to create a thread with ex serviceman/women then do it, and i will pull up a sandbag.



(Just for the forum trolls lmao--i served my time then joined up,,,,B4 you start crying Electrical Trainee,,, cos i knows what you are like - ya lizzards)

Well said.
Are we sure Aquaman has actually done what he says. In my experience most servicemen don't mention this stuff at all.

I'd put the lights on the same rcd as the sockets for a minute until you find the borrowed neutral/fault
