In the office again.
There follows a number of pictures, with a small descriptive. Your suggestions on the codes required.

The first, third and fourth pics all relate to the same DB. Door opened, but no guards removed. The fifth and sixth are both on an open roof (TPN).

The second is the IP rated box ( :slap ) for a freezer compressor, outside the building. SPN supply (actual location: adjacent to a staff doorway, approx 1.5M from the ground.

The loft space, showing PVC conduit adjacent to the loft hatch.

Incoming 135A/phase supply to a HVAC cabinet, with the doors opened. Main switch handle is on the front of the doors.

One of the small DBs in the building (I have removed the front cover, so that isn`t an issue.)

Inspection of a class 1 water heater isolation switch in a commercial kitchen.

PVC conduit to an isolator exposed to the elements.

Out on the roof - SWA traywork. The item on the very left edge of the pic is a satellite dish.

self-explanatory (I think......)

(The attached pics show cat5 installation to the roof area; and how the fuse carrier in pic3 looked when it was new!)

Kayaker....the handle is still attached to the door - needless to say the interlock function fails to operate.

Badg. There IS earthing in the DB.....I`m not saying anything else yet.

Sorry about the delay had to put kids to bed.

 
here's mine

1: 2

2: 1

3: 2

4: 2

5: has that brown got exposed conductor? if so, 1, otherwise 2

6: 2, unless conductors are damaged then 1

7: 2, unless damaged conductors, then 1

8: 1

9: 4. probably missing something, but only issue is IP rating at top? (unless final circuit earths are not in terminal - if they are, there hidden behind case)

10: 1. and assuming that earth is on the load side, almost a live part. or a band if its supply side

11: 2 unless damaged conductors, then 1

12: 4

13: 2 (unless wiring inside pulled from temrinal, or conductors damaged, then 1)

14: 4

 
Couple of notes for you:

The fuse carrier in pic 3 has been "modded" in order to take a 40A BS88 fuse (the carriers are rated 30A). The (fixed) load is 10.7KW. The reciever is the overheated part seen in pic 4.

pic 1 is from the same DB; but a different cct - 2 of the conductors form a ring final - the fuse is a BS88 30A.

pic 11 - the supply side is to the left.

Pic 9......cable clips held back with screws. Never seen that one before....................... :coat
No? I have done that in the past - where the nails won`t hold, for whatever reason. In this case, the board behind is "masterboard" - the stuff which replaced asbestos. It has a similar texture and structure, so nails don`t hold into it too well. I`m assuming that is why the screws were used.

I wish you would stop following me around and photographing my bestist work KME!!!!! X(

is the correct answer Torvill & Dean in the 1984 Winter Olympics, performing the Bolero?

Thats what Deke told me anyway......

Unless he's been fibbing again!

:_|

 
I am not going to give any codes, as I think this is the PIR we have discussed earlier, with this and the PIR Sidewinder has emailed me, the PIR quick reference guide I am writing is now well past 100 pages, 72 of them being Sidewinders :)

Well what great pictures - and all at the same installation!!

These sorts of pictures with discussion about the coding would make a brilliant training manual!
