Something Ive never had to do, but now as part of a bigger job Ive been asked to install a door entry system for an outdoor gate.  Kids come to gate, buzz mum indoors, mum answers, they talk then she lets them in.  As far as I know I need a 5 core from panel to handset, its a long run around...

Well thanks for the positive feedback , and the apology from Andy ? :P I used manufactured right angled crimps as there really was not enough space to fit standard ones. Im installing tomorrow, going to slot the top into a 6x6 trunking which will then route over to the incomer. Going to use...

Jeeso, didn't notice it was that old ! Sorry.

Thanks BD, its power supply for BBC temporary studio for commonwealth in Glasgow.  As mentioned not my usual line of work so open to any criticism of the install.

Fair enough, forget I asked!

I do have a clue Andy, Im just researching as much as possible. I knew that Id need to deal with eddie currents, just that wholesaler suggested the plate. The supplier has stated the supply is TT and will need earthed. Im not really sure what can go wrong, Im just keen to make sure Im using the...

Thanks guys, It took me a while to figure out exactly what the powerlok sockets are but now Ive researched them I think they should be fairly straightforward-ish. The job is a temporary studio for the BBC, I have only been tasked with the isolator and earthing. The Veam sockets are used already...

Does anyone have any experience with these ? I am mostly involved in domestic works but have recently been tasked with installing 5 (L1-L3/N/E) of these on to a 400a Isolator....How would I avoid eddie currents when mounting onto a metal panel ? Plastic plate ? Also how do they terminate ? The...
