Yes this is actually the work done by my builder ages ago to feed my new bathroom extension. The trunking made from a bit of gutter downpipe was a nice touch! It also occurred to me that the 'sub-main' feeding this board is 6mm t&e, and is not fused down where it comes from the main consumer unit. Another thing to sort out one day...

Things haven't changed much since I did my appprenticeship in the 70's, still using chip board to mount it on, although we had to bend and thread steel tube, non of this fancy plastic stuff!

We learnt how to bend 20mm seam welded galvanised steel conduit (if you are reffering to that steel tube). But I still haven't wired up some of that, so I can not upload photos with some chunks of bend conduit without some loads and stuff!

Looks like this electrician wasn't updated to be 'Y2K' compliant and can't handle four digit years, so has incorrectly rolled over from 1999 to 0000, 0001, 0002...

Did you set that black plastic tube into the top of the CU or force/bow the tube in?

We fixed the 20mm heavy gauge black pvc conduit into the cu with 20mm black pvc male and female bushes But when I tried to dismantle them, it was impossible so I forced them with the hammer technique

Don't worry about them tsakitsan you'll find there lots of arse holes on this site ready to put you down for no reason. There probably very insecure and it makes them feel better.
But you will also find lots of nice sparks as well.

You keep it up at college m8 you doing well.

I'll add some pictures of a Job just being completed. The pictures are my snagging pictures so that I have a visual record of the snags etc and ensure the work is completed as per the program before my final report.

No sweat mate how can perfection be improved:yes: I tend to get by on my natural good looks and sophistication. i did that install on a friday afternoon after 3hrs in the pub (not bad eh) I managed to get down 6 pints of fosters and 3 scotch an cokes and i was still able to put in cu and drive home. Amazing Stuff , i can sense the admiration from you even now:yes:

At last, a proper trefoil cable run! And a descent sized job to boot, what’s the MVA rating of the installation?

Thanks Tony, all I can say is that the total capacity is 14.7MVA running from 2 X 132kV feeders down to 8 11kV Tx's providing an A and B stream into the two structures so far built (which are only using some 2.7MVA). The rest of the capacity will be used by the remaining 2 main structures (4MVA each) (to be built plus a central Office block with a 0.5MVA capacity. The rest of the capacity is held for future use under ground)
