have not read the whole thread ? tad presumptious on your part.... well aware of the harmonisation. and for the reasons behind it. all mains electrical equipment designed for europe must be able to work on the range of that tolerance. As the uk meets that range it does not need to be 230v...

no fuses there just a meter - look at pic - three cables - the two going through the screwdrivers are hots and the grey to the right is neutral. the service will be a 110-0-110 v feed.... 220 for the cooker a/c and heating.... 110 for all other

doesnt have to injure,,, the higher voltage can be considers as a fire risk.... etc. they are duty bound to maintain the voltage within specification, on all loads. sounds like they have a customer thats going below voltage someplace, and they are trying to keep that from happening, and when...

looks like a meter base with meter removed.....

To the OP - get an electrician in, and quit with the scrimping money doing it cheap, and I dont really know what im doing angle. This stuff can kill you. Is your house supply TN-C-S is it TN-S what ever if your sending power out to an outhouse id be looking at the very least doing it as a T-T...

If every consumer board and 3 phase board is installed correctly the cable cores are behind a panel and can not be accessed without a tool. Then they are compliant. Remove the panel without a tool and you have these cables exposed then you have an issue. This is quite clear. So I dont know what...

Soo by your reckoning you can have cables without the sheath out without protection. Section 714 doesnt agree or disagree...

Expect this to be classed as C2 – POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS if the basic insulation is unsheathed anywhere where it may be accessible to touch. the picture showing the cable quite clearly missing a sheath This fault may attract a C3 – IMPROVEMENT RECOMMENDED code if the cable is in an area not...

Okay - earthing - its a complex area - You mentioned earthing the frame - not bad idea actually - Id put good bonding between all the metal work making up your metal work for support and not part of the electrical system ie not a circuit conductor. bring this together and then take it to an...

Ok define legal, and define the electrical regulations.. which are actually not regulations... if you want to go down the route of regulations and such in this country then be prepared for a bumpy ride, its not all black and white.. but guidance is there, and when it comes down to it the man in...

no one saying blanket use.... but there is still requirement to use RCD's and its in the current regs...

Load was just over 2kw of resistive element... so not inductive. DC is very hard to break.

In the case of the Part P Approved Document it says that works should comply with BS7671 - note that this document is non-statutory in England - however it does carry a lot of weight. And following the BS7671 makes sense. So reality is that it does have bearing.

trouble is there appears to be a flex cable that does not have two layers of insulation . hence the lid needs to be secured in such a way that a tool is needed to open.

brown book now were on 18th edition amendment 2... Is an RCD a legal requirement? If you have a new circuit installed, or a circuit is substantially modified, you may be required to have an RCD fitted under the Building Regulations (Part P) or BS7671 wiring regulations. This is a legal...

DC is formidable - And it has to have properly rated switchgear. not just for breaking a fault, but for switching duties. below demonstration. A 2.5kw load on ac and then dc.... you can see why you really need to have the correct specification. You also need to take into consideration...

I'd look towards getting a 110v charger. Should be able to find one for a fraction of the price of new drills etc. Also if the supply in the Caribbean follows the us it may have 220v for high current devices. That could be used to charge your batteries. But I'd go with getting a 110v charger...

now this is a whole new level... he can provide a diagram aswell... and give details on starting it etc.

Who is the clown being directed at.... ? Sit transformer. Isolation from mains. And a low voltage to earth. Through the centre tap. Most site shocks are line to ground. Hence using them.
