my full time job

when not playing with single phase and putting in ip rated down lights I maintain this stuff.... stops me getting bored i guess...!!

 

[Mr.Si]

Nice indeed!

I have to say though, that photo 34 shows the device that is undoubtedly the most important to maintain!
Keep up the Good work Mr Durham Sparky!

It looks like you get a nice variety of equipment to see to. I'm Jealous!

the grids are standard MK metaclad range and teh lights are the usual vapour proof fittings..!

the batteries in question are sealed and thus give of no gassers during charging and dont require topping up so risk of explosion due to high hydrogen levels are reduced if not entirely removed..! we do have a natural passage of air through the room just on safe side!

top level batteries require a table lift and step ladder!! plenty of room..!! just about to change 1200 batteries on another site!! should be fun!

Would have thought this stuff would be "meat and veg" with your background inthe navy.

got to say when i walked round HP data storage i was impressed with the amount of space that the electrical services were given ,Full Electric did a good job from what i saw.

 

[DurhamSparky]

oh its an impressive building i give them that!!

however Full Electric Services (FES) corners have been unearthed and are been sorted internally!! things like dodgy PIR sensors and 2 way lighting and 3 way wired up wrong... important items of equiptment on the switched side of contactors etc when really it needs juice ALL the time...!! all daft things really!
