More worrying Luke, is how did you 'milk up' your OSG in the first place

I doubt it was milk, but some other white substance.

pretty much the whole ruddy book

take table 7.1 for example

you know, you select a MCB size (after calculating your Ib), select your Iz cable size, look accross to TNS or TNCS, decide if its 0.4 or 5 seconds disconnection time, and it tells you you can have 64M or whaterver

Based on the R1+R2 briniging it under the max Zz and the Vdrop comlying with 4 %

but now:

the Zs value has changed
0.4 and 5 seconds criteria has changed
differnect vdrops for lighting and other circuits, and different again for public/private supply

So that table has to be split up, changed, modified

And the old one is abourt as much use as a Chelsea penalty taker (ouch!)

thats just one example!

RCD requirements for TT are out the window (100mA etc)

sp basically, do what Luke did

Just pour milk over it
