Had a call from a very good friend who used to work us with a plea for help ,
His employer ( on the tools ) was doing an install at an injection moulding plant and had a few problems so would I go and give him some advice .
When I arrived they had installed cable tray at roof level (500mm between purlins and tray) they had to run 1x 240mm 4 c xple , 1 x 185mm 4c xple and 95mm 4c xple ) on the tray , no rollers, no jacks,
luckily there was a forklift they could use so 1 hour later had the pull's sussed. where are the CPC'S I enquired, - dont need em there SWA come the reply - really CSA complies does it ( did.nt want to go any further than asking him to verify)
Then he showed the their new panel - Was I impressed ( nice Eaton panel )
Then he showed the the cable route - not a bad bit a tray work ( 2m missing round a opening ) but not bad, then he showed me is intentions 11no 185mm tri-rated tied to the tray ( in free air - literally around aforementioned opening ) what about mechanicle protection ( Nah ) the floppy bit ( that's alright )
Then to cap it all was'nt goint use lugs on the eaton outgoing MCCB'S ( THE ONE'S HE ORDERED DID'NT FIT SO JUST A WASHER)
After being there 4 hours he asked what he owed me - well I thought guy's a ----er I let him decied - offered me £ 20.00 and asked if I could get him some labour to help with cable install on the Saturday and Sunday - offering the princely sum of £ 100.00 per day
I started laughing ( really) told to him to stick his £ 20.00 in a help for heroes tin an left
