Hi nice vid but I noticed that the highest reading is PEFC 950.3 this one should be doubled and recorded not the PSCC am I right? THANKS

helpful but surely that Zdb your say is Ze because the is the 3 phase dno supply? is zdb would be at 2nd or 3nd distribution circuit ? ASKING
@headsup4sparkies11 місяців тому
Hi … If the board is at the origin of supply - then Zdb and Ze would be the same. Ze recorded on certificate and Zdb recorded on schedule of test results. If there is a sub main between the origin and the board under test .. then Zdb is measured at board with earth disconnected - and Ze from origin recorded on the certificate.
@headsup4sparkies11 місяців тому
The distribution board at the origin supplying the sub main, would also record this supply’s Zs on on it’s own schedule of test results, taken in the same manner but with the earth connected.
@headsup4sparkies11 місяців тому
The board in the video is assumed not to be at the origin of supply … Hope this helps 👍🏻
@Rossisearle11 місяців тому
@@headsup4sparkies right... So like a three phase distribution circuit?
@headsup4sparkies11 місяців тому
Yes … we call them “Sub-Mains” when we distribute the supplies from DNO to distribution boards… and the circuits from there are “final sub-circuits” supplying current using equipment without further distribution.

Hi I am having a few issues on identifying the types of wiring and reference method on the Generic schedule of circuit details. Can help or advise please?
@headsup4sparkies11 місяців тому
This can be simple - or complex, depending on the variety of methods employed on the route. You can select the most used method on the route / the method with most detrimental effect .. or so on. The inspector should use engineering judgement to decide … this link to IET - Supporting BS7671 Appendix 4 .. might help electrical.theiet.org/media/1617/appendix-4-of-bs-7671.pdf

Great video but how do you know when doing the 1st and 2nd bends on set where bend starts on former please!?
@headsup4sparkiesРік тому
When the conduit is resting in the former, the bend will be at the point where the conduit and former separate (underneath) … I generally place my little finger underneath to “feel” where that point is - and try to get the mark in the conduit at that point.. However - you don’t have to get it exactly right, as you can simply adjust the depth of the set. To add depth, put a little more in each bend. To decrease the depth, take a little out of each bend. Making sure to adjust the existing bend and NOT putting and additional bend in. Some people attempt to “mark” the former on top at the “point of bend” but you often have to change the position of the “stock” to get the measured conduit mark where you need it - as soon as you do this, the mark on the former will now be in the wrong place. Try not to over think it - bending conduit is more of a knack than an exact science. The ability to manipulate the bends neatly is the main skill. Practice makes perfect 👌🏻

Fabulous presentation, excellent visuals too !.... If i might just contribute ? In my view, the purpose of the solar hot water system is to reduce the need for energy consumption ! The reason I mention this is because the solar needs to operate independently from the boiler . The D.H.W timer should be programmed to schedule a periodic " top up" of the storage tank to overcome any shortcomings of the solar performance during dull weather, and reduce legionella by bringing the water temperature up to a suitable level. My system for instance, runs twice daily to address water & / or heating, based on the Honeywell programmer settings. I also use an S-Plan too, using my combi boiler to provide heat, triggered by the room / cylinder stats leading eventually to the output of the microswitch in the zone valve(s). My kitchen hot tap still runs from the combi directly though ! It has worked a treat for about 6 years and i find the boiler hardly needs to run between May and end of September due output of the 8 square meters of thermal solar panels on our roof. The boiler is still timed to come on but the cylinder stat is usually open by that time so no heat is required. Winter time is another story ... but the boiler still only needs to heat lukewarm water already warmed in the bottom of the cylinder. I often wish i had a second tank in summertime as it often shuts the pump off and stagnates until somebody takes a midday shower. A "destrat" pump and a few controls help to maximise efficiency. Brill animation ... Thanks for sharing.

Thank you very much for your contribution… this particular system is aimed at the AM2 requirements .. You are clearly experienced with these systems. From my own research, the only thing I can be sure of is that there is no such thing as a “typical” system.

@17italyman2 роки тому
where you had the running coupler and lock ring can you not just measure say half of the coupler so that when you tighten up the running coupler with the end you wont have any tread showing ?
@headsup4sparkies2 роки тому
I’m afraid not .. the running coupler needs to run from one piece onto the next piece. Therefore it will always leave some thread behind it. The way it’s shown leaves half the thread on the existing piece, and puts half the thread on the new piece. Therefore leaving half the thread exposed on the back of the existing piece, with both ends electrically (earthing) and mechanically secure.

@headsup4sparkies2 роки тому
Gracias por tu bonito comentario. Me alegro de que te haya gustado mi vídeo. Diferentes naciones tienen diferentes formas de compensar. Creo que Estados Unidos también usa cálculos de Pitágoras. En Inglaterra, nuestras dobladoras no son muy precisas, por lo que las marcas fijas no funcionan tan bien para nosotros. Este método es más común en Inglaterra. Es fantástico para mí recibir mensajes tan lejos de mi casa. Muchas gracias.

Like it. Just to point out, this is a '2plate' method or 'through the switch'. Ideal for downlights where only 2 conductors are prefered at the light fitting.

Correct … combined with 2 way and Intermediate Switching. This is similar to the arrangement found in the AM2 😀

@connorrigg78782 роки тому
Just a quick question if the depth was say higher or lower than 53mm would you shorten or add more on too the 100mm in between the sets ?
@headsup4sparkies2 роки тому
You can increase the depth of the set by either making the 2 bends deeper, or by increasing the distance between the bends. In the AM2s there is a maximum length that the set can be, detailed in the spec. When setting out your bends you will need to decide what looks best and fits best in each circumstance. Hope this helps ..
