    Thank you kind Sir for your perfect explanation ...as a 73 year old/young beginner to basic electricals ...you've explained all I need to know so that I can complete the wiring for my workshop ....you efficiently delivered the required information without wasting a word ! Very impressive 👏😊

    Brilliantly compiled and presented. Finally a wiring diagram that makes sense. The way you present it showing the actual kit is so much more understandable/relatable than the competition that use animated graphics.
    My thanks for making this clear to me.

    ADD: It is common practice that all INPUT (or supply, source) electricity are to connect from the top just like this 4:17.
    In this video, it just so happens that the supply wires came from the top; however many installations have the wires from the bottom instead, ie pulled from the ground up, but it is connected to the tops of the CBs.
    6:17 Even if this looks ugly, it is a best practice. Some CBs have special circuits on the tops. Fuse Holders for instance have the fuse connected to the bottom. If one wired the bottom as source, you wont be able to hold the fuse.

    At 1:20 author mention ferula, as fair I know it's reccomended to use them. And things which was omitted and should be mentioned at this video: Cable glands and LABELING of the switches. I will say the last one is very important from practical point of view.

  • @martinfoster5163
    @martinfoster5163 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Very informative. Unfortunately, I have 380v 3 phase main power. So my sub-panel is a bit more complicated. In fact, it's a bit of mess. I live in the mountains of Mongolia and it's pretty remote but we do have grid power. We mainly use 240v appliances except a heating boiler which uses 380v.
    It's not so easy to use bus bars because I distribute power from different phases. I use jumpers from the main switch to each circuit breaker instead. Well, at least the electrician who set it up.
    If you would do a 3 phase supplied video, that would be awesome. But maybe it's not that interesting to people.

  • @IAmThe_RA
    @IAmThe_RA 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the 63A is an isolator switch, it is not a circuit breaker. The 63A rating means it can handle current up to 63A, beyond that the switch can get damaged, melted or burnt.

    • @Antharishk
      @Antharishk ปีที่แล้ว

      U can get both isolator plus MCB in 9ne switch.

    • @IAmThe_RA
      @IAmThe_RA ปีที่แล้ว

      @@Antharishk Yep i did not watch the whole video that's why I missed that part 2:47 where he talked about differences. In the UK usually it is rare to see a double pole MCB inside a DB board. Only single pole MCBs, double pole RCDs and an isolator switch. You may also see RCBOs and an SPD. And of course there is another isolator switch after the meter and a fuse before the distribution board.

    Side note for North-Americans: This videos applies to single-phase European systems, while the US applies the split-phase system.

    • @bialy100k
      @bialy100k 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Europe use slightly different color scheme now, just have to remember colors should be blue=N=neutral instead black and brown=L=live instead red. Grounding is same in both systems (yellow green or green).

    @iancoghlan6886 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Thanks for a very informative video. I am not an electrician, but knowledge is power. I have a question: I have 3ph supply. My main MCB in primary DB is rated at 50A/415V. While the main breaker in each of the 2 sub db's is 63A/400V. The main DB also contains MCB's for each of the 2 sub DB's. These are rated at 63A/415V. Why is the Main MCB of Primary DB rated at 50A while the Sub DB's are rated at 63A? Also i'm wanting to swop out the Sub DB MCBs located within the Primary DB with smart breakers to monitor energy consumption in preparation for near future Solar installation. However, the smart MCB's available is only rated at 63A/380V. Will it be advisable/acceptable to do such a swop out? many thanks. Ian

    Nice. But still some issues to be resolved. For flexible cable special cable lugs to be used. Direct connection not allowed. Dynamometric screwdriver to be used to be sure, that connections are pressed correctly. Labeling circuit breakers not enough. Cables to be labeled by wire identification rings. So this quality maybe Ok for your home, but not enough for commercial product.
