Ring main.

youneed to get out more. don't the pubs open soon?

LOL.

yes it is a ring final cct not a ring main.

You might find a ring main in the street.

You might find a ring main at a power station etc (although not really the type you find in the street.

A ring final in installtions - domestic or otherwise

If you are referring to me Tel, then nothing gets up my snout more than Wannbee's quoting something they know little or nothing about post ban waiting, still no one likes the truth these days do they?

Not really other than it's not called a ring main a ring main is a distribution circuit it's ring final circuit if you get your terms correct you may get some better responses

I haven't used the term "ring main".

I've used "ring final" and just "ring".

i was referring to the poster who drew all those figure 8 etc. circuits.

It happens. A few times (not here) in the past I've had "discussions and debates" (ahem...) lasting multiple posts where I've misattributed what had been said. The arguments over what had been said were valid, but with the wrong person.

Worse things happen at sea.

Actually, just to be a bit naughty - what is unsafe about a large number of radials, each one having not more than one twin socket and all connected by say one 32A MCB. Not actually unsafe proving the joints are reliable both electrically and mechanically and all volt drop and Zs are catered for.
I wouldn`t like to see it but it would not cause piles of dead bodies to litter the place.

Bring back (and uprate) the octopus....

That'll be me.

And I would like to get out more.

But I'd probably still have done the drawings - they only took a few minutes and were easier to use to make my point than words. ?

Yeh.... like Sea Shanties....

So we are all agreed then?

Well I only joined it in April 2020 so give it time

 

[Andrew Hunter]

Question I have is, is it ok to have x2 ring main circuits on one 32amp type B MCB??

If so does this meet the current regs.

TIA.

It is actually 1 RFC with an intermediate connection. And the answer is No you can not have it and this is the specific fault that we are looking for when conducting the cross connection RFC test. It just happens to be in a place visible.

Bloody hell, is this thread still going?

Perhaps it should have died along with the Ring Main or if you want to be pedantic Final Ring Circuit, who ever though up that idiocy.

 

[ackbarthestar]

Why have I received a post about ring final circuits?
