Hi SparkyMike I have not had a play with the new Flir hand held/torch style camera. So i can't say if the fusion stuff is unique to the visir camera, maybe you can let me know. Cheers

Yeah I have had a play with the FLUKE camera; I was at SPIE in Florida a year back and watched a presentation by FLUKE. The blend mode between IR and Visual was pretty impressive, but that has become standard now on most thermal cameras. The resolution is what really sells this camera, it just...

The automatic RCD testing on the MFT1553 is worth its weight in gold, especially on long cable runs. Saves having another body on the job and my legs!!

Hi I just thought I would throw another product into the discussion. I have been working as a sparks for about 20 years and around 10 years ago started using Thermal Cameras for my predictive maintenance jobs. Have a look at Thermoteknix's VisIR, they are based in Cambridge UK, I have been...

Yes!! Good luck dude!

What's wrong with Snails? I think that should be put to a vote! Hands up who likes Escargot!! Thank you Sir!!

That's another possibility and you are not far from Blackpool!! Kiss me quick hat, picture taken wi monkey and t'ride on donkeys!!

That's got my vote too, I love Paris. You have the small winding streets the fantastic buildings and history. You could take your missis up the eiffel tower (that's not euthamism). Take a trip up the winding streets Montmartre, one of the most breath taking views you will see is the the view...

Hi a guy called Sparks and Half on the SF forum posted lots of easy to fill in and print forms, as well as some other useful bits and pieces, I think it's still available. If somebody has already posted this, sorry for the repeat, but I thought they where very useful and have been using them...

I have just done the 4 day course, but I already had the 15th Edition, I have been out of the game for a few years. If I was doing it from scratch, I would have chosen the 10 week course, there is a lot of stuff to get through in 4 days. I found this book very good; it takes you through...

I had a crackin diagram, with stick figures, dancing girls and a whole stage full of kids singing. Sorry you will have to settle with my ascii crap!! The Dancing girls looked brilliant, each one had a Resistor 6, 7, 8 9 and 10 ohms!! Damn my scanner!!

Bloody scanner Right 1/(1/6 + 1/7) = 3.23 ohms ish 1/(1/9 + 1/10) = 4.7 ohms ish 8 ohms add the three 15.9 about 16 ohms Right I = V / R P = V * I Substitute I You get P = V * V/R which is V^2 (V squared) divided by R so 50^2/ 16 = 156.2 Watts Hope that helps I Hate scanners!!

sec I am just installing my scanner and i will post me scribble

did that make sense?

if R1 and R2 are in parallel R4 and R5 and in parallel and R8 is in series with those then I would say that the total power is 156.25 watts or there about

To get the formula for 1 divide both sides by B*L So you have F=B*I*L dividing both sides by B*L you get F/B*L = B*I*L / B*L B and L on the left right side cancel out so you get F/B*L = I stick in the numbers 15/0.25*0.5 = 120A Questing 2 is just plugging in the numbers F=B*I*L 0.3 *...

hehehe Yep that about sums it up, in a nutshell!! Is the bar open yet!! Guiness Drink

Hi I have been a sparky for about 19 years, went to pursue other interests about 5 - 6 years ago. But once it's in your blood, there ain't nothing you can do. So just sorted my 17th out and I is back. I only joined yesterday and this seems to be one top place. Cheers

A pure resistance acts the same on AC circuits (RMS) and DC circuits A capacitor is made up of two metal plates separated by insulation. A capacitor responds to the rate of change of voltage across the plates, which is the frequency of the AC circuit, this is called capacitive reactance and...
