    Consumer unit

    OK, OK, The "customers" daughter works for me! I was not given the whole picture and was too busy to think about trying to find any faults etc. even for an employees relative. It was just not possible. Also, I did not really want to get involved. The house was wired etc. before the daugher...

    Another few machinery pictures

    Andy, I dunno! But it is cheap to get done! I realise there is a commercial aspect to all things, however, first it must comply with the regs! I have a customer (large) who has many locations. We work directly for their H&S dept and do machine works etc. The local sites complain about...

    Another few machinery pictures

    Max Zs - 16 amp Type D mcb

    Unless Zs is out, fit a D type and be done with it! No comebacks, circuit complies, minimal risk of nuisance tripping. I have seen many motor circuits trip C types, depending on the mechanics of the load, etc. and compressors can be a pain, especially if they try to start on full load, which...
