Fuses To Bs1361

[Evans Electric]

Anyone know where I can find maximum loop lmpedances for  the small consumer unit type Wylex BS1361 cartridge fuses ?

I see all the MCBs and BS88 s   but not 1361s

Ah !   Stop looking ....found it ...there are none ....that would explain that then . :coat :coat

EDIT :

Oh   Thanks  Paddler ,   Now my identical sheet misses out the 1361s  .

Just looked printed off an NICEIC  table that shows them N/A   but yours shows them ......... most odd.

Edit again:-

Forget all that ..its my eyesight ...I was looking at 32A  instead of 30A   :coat    

But ELECSA have still missed the 1361s from their info sheet.

Assessment tomorrow ...I'll mention it !!

ANd thanks Paddler.

Edit :-

Memo to self :

Think before posting . :C

Just to prove I've not lost all grip on reality  heres the sheet from my EICR book.

I might be wrong but I'm 99% certain as of some point this year (September rings a bell) BS1361's are to be referenced as BS88-3's and the BS88-3 max loop impedances are to be used

1361 is now an obsolete standard, which has been replaced by one of the BS88 series, can't remember now which one.

Hence for new installs they don't exist, and in the fairy tale world of the scams, they disappear overnight and are replaced by the new equivalent.

Amelie must be getting busy!

Quite easy to change a 1361. To an 88

Tippex and a black felt tip pen usually works a treat

 

[Evans Electric]

AH  ...right...   so someone has gone round all the jobs in the UK  and replaced the 1361a with 88s,  didn't know that . :C

Now that's just madness what band of crazy fools would ever think of such a thing, it's like declaring a BS obsolete and expecting everyone to use another standard...................... Oh wait
