Morning all.  I hope everyone is well.  Does anyone know if there is a problem with the NICEIC BRCS part of their website? When I click the link to notify work I get a warning that the connection is not private and that the sites certificate is from api.domainmonster.com. which doesn't sound...

Please disregard my previous post about missing a post. I have caught up now. Must have been half asleep! GS

 Haha, I read Steps' post before yours sorry!  Scoob for the pic! Cheers for the help.  GS Am I missing a post here?  How much are they? Paddlers? Cheers  GS

Cheers for the advice Steps. Have you fitted this type of fastener or do you use a different system? Cheers GS

Thanks binky.  So I am assuming my roofer will have to install some lead flashing over where the bracket is fixed? As below (finally found some pics!!)

Will the above solarflash work with the flat roof fastener? Cheers GS

Thanks binky. Much appreciated. So your flat bracket is basically sitting on top of the battens, with a packer in between the 2 battens? I am assuming Solar flash can be used with this method? GS

The roofer we will be using is a good friend of mine. We will probably work together to install brackets.  I did C&G 2399 back in 2013. We have been so busy with the electrical side of things since then that we have not managed to become MCS registered. Although the course was very good, we...

Cheers Canoe.  When I said screwed to the batten, I was meaning to say screwed through the batten into the rafter (Where the batten crosses the rafter) - Sorry should have been more clear.  I'm just not sure if these brackets sit on top of the batten or on top of the rafter, in between the...

Good morning all.  We are hoping to become MCS registered this year to install PV systems as some of our existing clients are looking to install solar PV.  I am currently researching different mounting systems for slate roofs as this is the most common tile in our area.  I have been looking...

Hi Guys.  Does anybody have any suggestions on the best way to separate the earthing of the generator and the DNO's earth when the generator is required? Cheers GS

As this is what the DNO require for a rod to be connected to their earthing system (PME)? Cheers GS

Cheers guys.  GS

Thanks for the reply's guys. Much appreciated as always.  My clients have a severely disabled son, who needs 24/7 care and power is a must. They have had 6 power cuts this year alone. (Remote location) The earthing system is TNC-S.  The building has its own transformer on a pole approximately...

Evening all.  We have a client who would like to connect a 16kVA generator to his property during mains failure. The generator will be housed in a nearby field and connected when a power cut occurs. So no need for it to kick in automatically upon power failure.  We plan to install a 63A...

Good evening all.  I hope your all well and keeping busy! I have a question regarding the service interval for BS5839 Part 1 fire alarm systems.  What is the legal requirement for service intervals? 6 months or annually? We usually sub our fire alarm work out, but had a client ask about...

50mm bond in both buildings.  Iv'e CMA then.  Cheers lads.  GS

Still trying to decide what to do!  Bond both services in both buildings with 50mm.  or,  Bond main building with 50mm and the new unit with 10mm. Decisions. Cheers GS
