Hymns are sexist - we should sing 'hers'. Daz
so if its a BS3036 board....all the nails will drop out....don't matter anyway, coz as soon as you post a pic. on here, it will be turned sideways anyway
Thanks for providing a link back to this thread 1sc , just what we need , a never-ending loop lol.
I once got heavily criticised on here when I was a new member, I asked why a cu would not be able to go its side. I got told by a member ( cannot remember who) that an mcb works on gravity. If an mcb is turned on its side then the gravitational pull isn't where it should be and it will affect te trip times.
I then proceeded to say it complete and utter ********
And then got told I didn't have a clue what I was talking about, look into how mcb's are made and come back when ya learnt somat.......
I guess you can, but it isn't worth the hassle, you'll be called back within the week to change it. After the clients know it all neighbour has said "oh that's wrong" " oh that's really dangerous "
I'd either move the isolator, or say to the client it's got to the a smaller board with rcbo's
thanks for all the info guys,
Sure you want to know,
It's done,
It's on it's side,
It looks ok,
But...
Won't be doing it again...
And all for the sake of a 17th board with 6 circuits.....!
RCBOs all the way from now on.
