    temporary feed for static caravan

    I have been asked by a client to install a temporary supply to a static caravan for them to live in during a rebuild, they haven't purchased the caravan yet so I'm not sure of the spec. it is going to be about 25 meters from the house. is there a standard supply for one of these?

    Caravan hookups

    I was asked to test five caravan pitches for someone I've done a few jobs for. Now, I'll admit my knowledge on TT systems is not vast so I'm looking for a bit of advice.

    EICR for a static caravan.

    TNS, Ze 4.35. Hmmmm. If in doubt don't. Measure it twice, cut it once. If in doubt, do it again. 0.68 that's better. Bad connection, my fault. But who else not in the know would have questioned it.
