    RCD tripping times exam question

    I sat the 2394 written exam tonight and one of the questions was about testing a 30mA RCD. It asked which tests you would carry out and the permitted tripping times. I answered that at 30mA and 150mA it was equal to or less than 300ms and 40ms respectively. Which I believe to be within those...

    #Eureka - or - understanding Zs/Ze/R1+R2

But I had a eureka moment at around 2:30am this morning, woke up and completely understood the relationship between Zs, Ze, R1+R2, why we do R1+R2/4 to...

    Safe Isolation lockouts for new Hager board?

    Anyone know of any safe Isolation lockouts that work on the new Hager boards? My current ones don't fit. The mini circuit breaker style ones don't work as the hager MCBs only have a hole one side. The clamp on ones don't fit as the shape of the lever on the MCB and main isolator is curved on...

    Inappropriate advert of the year award

    This is my nominee. Just can't fathom what a scantily clad lassie sitting on presents has got to do with electrics or telecommunications (I think that's what at&t is)

    Nico Rosbourg has retired....

    Must admit I didn't see that coming and I bet that every driver on the grid is desperately seeking the seat and a way out of their existing contract! Button for Mercedes for 1 year? Alonso for Mercedes? Vettel for Mercedes? and I thought that the F1 musical chairs had finished for this year...

    Removing a picture from a post

    Hi People, Is there a way of removing a picture from a post once you have posted it? I did a post recently where I accidently added the pic twice. I tried to edit the post and remove the attachment but it didn't do the change. What am I doing wrong or it is not possible?

    Ford Radio codes

    Hi, does anyone of you fine peeps have a copy of the Ford codes? I've got the infamous V coded radio and having changed the battery now have no tunes..... Annoyingly, the code was missing when I got the van so I feel slightly grieved at the thought of giving Ford money for something I already own!!
