That is how the outdoor chrimbo decs should be installed right, the fuseboard at the back is suppled from a limited 16amp trip through a 18amp contactor. this is controlled by the time clock on the right hand side.

Nice job Badge!

Is this your garden?

 

[Badger]

[jl-heating]

nice job .... .totaly lost me .. lol.. but looks nice. :0

Silly question, Badge. Which one is the RCD protecting it all? Or is it all SELV?

Anyway, looks great.

 

[Badger]

it feeds out of the garage, via a 20amp mcb, and 30ma RCD, to a 6 way cu in shed, and then on 16 amp trip to those 2 fuseboard, So basically everything is on its own rcd circuit in the garage, seperate to the house.

does that answer your question.

this is not pluggeed in but hard wired into the shed supply via rcd in th garage, If this trips out it takes thew supply to all outside lampposts and pond, etc but doesnt effect the house circuits in any way.

that ok for every one,

ps the tripping time of rcds is 22ms x1

and 12 ms x 5

the trips in the back cu is all 6A

It's got to the point where I feel obliged to post links...........

Here

The other method is to select option 4. - IMG Code. This will actually show the picture on the forum.

(I personally prefer a link )

 

[Badger]
