The mobile I was assessing last week had a petrol generator providing power via an inverter for a variety of catering equipment. My questions are as follows
a) If the mobile has RCD protection , would this be sufficient in absence of a TT earth ?
b) If just RCD is not sufficient how would a satisfactiory earth be achieved in practical terms - mobile is on highway next to a pavement.?
(I am studying for level 3 2365 - last year sucessfully past the level 2 2365 - so I am attending evening classess at a local college whilst working during the day- my day job involves assessing mobiles for street trading consents etc- I know a few will reply stick to the day job but just wanted to recieve the best guidance out there as I know that the engineers on this forum have many more years experience than I have.)
Any helpful advice or guidance relating to this issue would be appreciated.
Thanks
