Hi guys just a quick check in my calculations for a quote I'm doing

15meters clipped direct

30,000w divided by 400v
= 75a per phase

im using sy cable and think 16mm 5 core is best

What you guys think

What you guys think
I think the "NO" vote has confused you.

Heard of:
Power = sqrt(3)V[SUB]L[/SUB]I[SUB]L[/SUB]cos(phi)
Rearrange to get I[SUB]L[/SUB]


See, it's not that hard, is it?
 
what at the hell are you talking about mate it's as svq level 3 apprenticeship

The City & Guilds 2397 is an NVQ level 3 apprenticeship. The thing is, it only takes five weeks.

It's all well and good saying you have got an apprenticeship, but what is it actually made up of. What certificates have you got and what actual qualification did you complete. I'm not talking in an alien language fella, this is a very basic question!

You have already expressed that you hold the City & Guilds 2394 and 2395 supplementary qualifications, I want to know what ACTUAL core qualification do you hold?

Thank you.

I still don't understand how you don't know what qualification you hold? Either way, I'd be annoyed if I were you as it is clear to me that whichever college you went to did not do their job properly in terms of providing you with a basic education!

I know exactly what qualifications I have svq level 3 you total donut
 
That explains why there is no root 3 then! ...... and fortunately no PF's or Eff's :smiley2:

Ive just got back from a rather large roast beef lunch at the Toby carvery, where several schooners of the red variety were consumed by yours truly PFs is that power factor? and Effs + efficiency? sorry for asking but the brain is not functioning as it should do.

An SVQ3 is not a qualification. It is a type and level of qualification. You'd do well to do your research before you call other people donuts wouldn't you!

After doing my full 4 year apprenticeship I didn't really care what c&g number I had because I had just completed my FICA I don't need to explain to you what qualifications I have I'm based in scotland Electrical Trainee don't exist here neither does part p

It doesn't matter to me one iota whether you cared what your qualification was called or what number it was assigned, I was asking as a way of ascertaining what level of study you have completed. I have taken your word for it and it would seem that we have established you have taken the correct route into the industry. That said, my previous post still applies.

A. I'd be really annoyed at my college if I were in your shoes as it seems you have not been taught well at all,
B. I know Part P doesn't exist in Scotland, but that doesn't mean 5WWs don't exist! And,
C. You are the one here asking year one apprentice questions after completing a four year apprenticeship. I haven't given you any jip about that have I? I've just asked you a few questions in order to assist me in getting to the bottom of why you have such a fundamental lack of knowledge on this topic, yet I'm the one being called a donut???

Hmmm
