Have you seen the guy's ID card? What is the membership number? If you search for the company's name on the NAPIT site, it will prove that company is a NAPIT member. Personally I find this difficult to believe unless the individual is not registered for full scope, he may be working outside...

That would be 2kW to the 17th edition! Regards

Horse tied up at the front door, spurs on your safety boots, quivering bottom lip, sweating, licking of lips, not eyeballing, blinking rapidly and length of nose are all giveaways. Or how else would your spouse recognise you were telling porkies? Regards

The CPC's are shown using two ways of the earthing terminal block inside the CU. How does this relate to the sequence numbering allocation for the MCB ways? Regards

I assume that you're using SWA, use the armour as the CPC as a minimum. Your other options: - Provide a 3rd core for another parallel CPC. Install an earth rod or rods, they can be driven at an angle to avoid rock, if feasible. It would all depend on your existing Ze value - the loop...

It may be the initial current surge which is causing the trip. I would try a 6A type C MCB, assuming that your existing one is a type B, this has a "slower" trip curve and is commonly used for such situations. This should be done only after a competent electrician has investigated the...

Halfords sell a trickle charger which plugs into the cigarette lighter socket. Regards
