    Consumer Unit

    All sounds a bit dramatic. Can you post a photo so we can see the extent of the hole and the cables? I am taking it you mean just the meter tails rather than all the final circuit cables?

    Flex or T&E?

    Strain relief and abrasion resistance make it good for applications where it will be hanging from a socket for example, or as extension leads.

    SWA armour connection in metal distribution board.

    Using a contactor with emergency stop button

    The switch contact will have a rating on it, some are only 10A. But that aside, an emergency stop circuit should incorporate a contactor so that pressing the e stop will drop the contactor out and resetting the e stop will not power the contactor up again unless the start button is also pressed...

    wiring through a dist board

    Running cables through a distribution board where they don't belong will cause a lot of grief in the long run. I had to change out the top board where there were two boards bushed together vertically. All the singles entered from a piece of trunking above the first board and the cables for the...

    ferrule crimper

    Weidmuller PZ6. These are the ultimate for smaller sizes (0.25 to 6mm in one jaw size, no having to aim for the right hole) I just bought an unbranded pair which do 6, 10 and 16mm from Beal (workshop supplies) which are remarkably good and cost just £14.50. http://www.beal.org.uk/...

    What if the garage is connected to the house (built on the end) with a concrete floor? It is conceivable that a garage built on the end of a house could actully be further away from the MET than a detatched garage, depending on the loction of the incoming supply. Would you then regard the...
