hello JohnW2, The cabin will be sitting on a 'footprint' of concrete around 5m x 4m. The concrete is approx 3m3 worth of material, so quite a depth. The cabin itself is 4.5m x 3.4m. The cabin has good solid floor bearers, sitting directly on the concrete. floor, which is then overlaid...

Thanks.

Hi Johnd, pic of incomer.

thank you Johnd

Ban all Sheds, yes I'm aware. Sparkticus, many thanks for comprehensive reply on the difference between the two.

Thanks again ricicle, I think I'm 99.9% there on understanding this now. Its highly unlikely that I will add any more services, due to the work and complexity in getting them there! Just wanted to be sure that if I export the earth (i.e. not a rod) then that could be done with both...

Thanks for that sparkticus. I do have test equipment (used to do it for a living, but many years ago) Is there a way of visible recognition? Will TNS or TNC-S make a difference to exporting the earth to the log cabin? i.e. is one better than the other for this.

Hi Ricicle, I can confirm than no other services will enter the cabin. Thanks for the link to... (piranha nuts are in my opinion best) tbh the supplier didn't seem too sure as to tns or tncs. They were sure it wasn't tt though. Can you differentiate the two by looking at the...

Thanks Ricicle. I can confirm that no water pipes or any other services enter the cabin. Will this make a difference to the earthing arrangements? Many thanks,

Hi All, been a long time since I posted. I have an swa cable (6mm 3 core) buried to a very deep depth down the edge of my garden, ready to go into a log cabin. Being delivered on the 30th Sept. The cable run is 20m long from cu to Cabin. I intend to use metal clad box sited next to cu...

Thanks for reply.

thanks both, any tips on how to stop external sounder going off when battery is disconnected?

Hello, I have to disconnect a keypad and re site on an old veritas system (approx 10 yrs old, battery changed approx 3 yrs ago) Can I disconnect without powering down, i.e. remove terminals live (with care, to avoid shorting) Many thanks, ps the system has two keypads.

STOP! saying your, it's you're !!!!

Yep, new box too. Hi tuff not cheap :cry: :cry: Thanks all, again for help.

perhaps it was a rhetorical question. No, in seriousness it was already installed, and I hoped the answer may have been that the gland would seal it. I'm now faced with adding a longer cable to feed underneath , hey ho! lesson learned.

Guess that must mean a loop then Chri5 ? ! B***** I've installed it now!!

Hello, Thanks again for your help on this, I have one more question. Where the cable enters the adaptable j.b. via the gland, is it a must that the cable should be looped underneath for rainwater run, or will gland seal sufficiently if its ran straight into the top of the box? Thanks...

Cheers just tried that with a stanley type knife, and the flex membrane on the jb is meeting up tightly & snugly with the back of the cable gland. Thanks for replies and help, sorted !
