hello everyone, I have a little problem. I've got a three phase board, it has the three phase sauna, one phase lighting and sockets connected to it. The problem i am facing right now. This is a comercial unit. So the problem is that the sauna makes the RCD trip every so often. And the board...
Just been watching the daily briefing from Downing Street and was amazed to see sockets and accessories mounted in the skirting. Perhaps it needs a rewire.
Had the WD40 out earlier cleaning my fiancees bike up.
Saw on the side they suggest it can be sprayed into mcbs on a fuse board.
Can't say I have ever thought of that. I know it can be used on contacts but it somehow seems wrong to be spraying a liquid into a fuse board as shown on the can!
So recently i have been given a lot of changes to the work im used to, quick example = im ok with single phase boards but i am not competent or confident enough in three phase. My boss is a very angry guy..... should i just go for it or should i refuse until i have training ?
cheers

I haven’t got around to doing my 18th yet and I haven’t got the new literature.
How do you determine if you need to fit an SPD board.
Should I start fitting these on all my jobs now?
Anyone else use MCG fuse boards before and never hand any issues or reports of them being poor in reliability long term?
recently had to carry out a DB change and due to size and the main switch on the LHS I was advised by CEF to use MCG.
The quality of the board was not brilliant and I only...

I'm fitting two replacement sub-mains panels as part of a long-term upgrade from split-phase to three phase on a part-domestic part-commercial site (my own gaff). I'm using all RCBOs because I like them, but am less keen on the cost of the commercial variants ...
