Installation of SWA cable

[dazza1981]

not really - i obviously plan to use a rcd unit in garage - i know this may cause both house and garage to trip but i want rcd on the garage board and we all know the swa must hav rcd protection...right!

ermmmmm.... No

I'm gonna say at this point this is a definite wind up. If not, put the tools down and get an electrician in.

well maybe you should leave saying any thing because you refuse to answer any of my points

NO we don't, because you're Wrong!! Only if we are talking about the house having a TT earth would a RCD be needed to protect the SWA cable...

 

[ElecEngineer]

ermmmmm.... No

NO - you saying SWA does not have to be protected?

 

[ElecEngineer]

what - so if someone at a later date dug into the cable what protection to they have from the Live steel armour !

It's called ADS, didn't they teach you anything about that on you're 17 day course?? Ooops 20 day course you're an Engineer aren't you... :chinese:

I will ask the same question again. See if you will answer it this time.

Why is your name elecengineer, if you don't have a clue what you are doing?

I am not answering your points because I should not be encouraging you to carry out work you are clearly not competent to do.

Some useful advice for you sonny ....... never EVER get involved in a pi$$ing contest with certain older hands on this forum. They have forgotten more than you're ever likely to know in your entire lifetime!

If you're not happy with the very sound advice you're being given then leave and try elsewhere.

THIS forum is for Electricians - with a capital "E" - NOT two bit chancers.

It depends on which eng you're thinking of - the real one or the impostor.

 

[dazza1981]

Would the real engineer please stand up!!!!!

He's the one wearing the Chinamans hat.

There's another one floating about somewhere still in mourning for his lost beard and hair and a couple of others. They know who they are and they know who they are but the OP has yet to find out.

Looks like the imposter has just done a runner!! lol!!

Aye well ..... the Flied Lice must have been too hot for him.

I think he does not have the BGB, or can"t read it, as for have not installed SWA before what did he learn at collage how to plum in a washing machine, as for RCD why not put one in the centre of SWA as well as both end as this would not help at all but might look good
But I think a better idea would be to just get some 2.5 twin/earth as it"s a lot easy to make off than SWA and then just IT it and put a sticker in flowerbed.
JOB DONE no need to test as it will be OOK in the end and we will not have to put up OPs like this,
