It's a con by the fitting manufacturer, so that you have to buy replacements from them only. Just like the 3 pin bayonet fittings by MEM.

There is an elongated hole with the meter cables and earth cable going through it.

UKPN will not renew the cables to the two properties, only to the cutout. The cable from the isolator that i want to install to the meter will belong to the council. Is this unusual? I've had a job before in an where an isolator had to be renewed in an intake cupboard, UKPN said that did not own...

The UKPN cutout will be in that burnt out cupboard once it is rebuilt. I am running a cable from the cutout to the meter.

There are actually 2 properties involved here. The property i'm more concerned about is a 2 storey house which is on top of a single storey flat (1970's council estate). The front doors to the two properties are facing opposite directions and both have a bin/intake cupboard next to the front...

The switchfuse and swa will be on the suppliers side of the meter. I will be doing an r1+r2 and IR test only as there will be no power.

I'm going to install one of these with a 3 core 16mm swa coming from it. Uk power networks are going to replace the underground cable from the road but the want my cable run and tested before they do anything.

I will be signing off the cert. The cable is more than adequate for the 60amp fuse. Was just wondering if uk power networks would insist on 25mm. The disconnected tncs cable to the house looks as it may only be 10mm max.

I had a job to look at today where someone had set fire to some rubbish in an intake cupboard. Uk power networks have dug up some of the road and disconnected the incoming tncs supply. They will not run a new supply until a new armoured cable has been installed and tested. I was thinking of...

Are the light fittings made by Hilclare by any chance?

You may have connected the permanent live into the switch live terminal. This would cause the fan to work permanently.

A 107mm core bit is normally ok for me.

Schneider also own Square D, from them you'll be able to get type B breakers to fit merlin gerin boards. About £38 + vat from newlec.

I'm at college now, doing my 2391. We had a scenario of a commercial building which needed a PIR, but the client said one of the ring circuits could not be isolated because there were computers plugged into it which they did not want turned off. Our teacher said that this is fine as long as you...

I normally buy Wylex RCBO's, but the other day I bought a Proteus(CEF's own brand) RCBO and the first thing I noticed was that it had no 'functional earth lead'. Any idea why this has no FEL? I would have thought that if it was not needed all the leading brands would also not include it.
