    Used catenary few weeks back for garden lighting with tensioners it worked a treat .
    With it being an armour I think I’d have went Down and under the slabs but never the less good job as per usual bud 👍👍👍

    We have a Compton Garage from before they became Legit Compton and it came supplied with rectangular brackets. Holes at both ends allowed you to use the existing concrete panel bolts to secure these brackets to the wall. The other end to secure battens etc. that you could then mount a piece of wood to for electrical accessories etc.

  • @abbottfamily6317
    @abbottfamily6317 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Not always possible in every situation, but often you can do away with the joint in the Wiska box and just gland the SWA to the box, leaving enough length of the inner to go through the wall and into the box on the inside. This avoids a needless joint. You need drip loops on the SWA! Otherwise you get rainwater coming in. Did you use the weatherproof SWA glands outside?

    • @NBundyElectrical
      @NBundyElectrical  5 ปีที่แล้ว

    The official brand name / company name is
    "Dietzel Univolt" from Vinna city, Austria, European Union. Inside UK only "Univolt".
    The colour is "black" what is "schwarz" in german language. The sign "CL SW 20" mean the external diameter of the pipe how fit in should be "20 cm". They are 100 pieces (or in german language "Stück") inside this box. I think this is the minimal smallest box how do you can order in a shop.
    Be carefully this product is only hard plastic but they sell metal clamps too.

    Hi Nick, another great video.👍🏼 I did comment earlier about the 100ma TD RCD, as you had missed it. Their is nothing wrong with the 100ma TD rcd & rcbo’s & that makes it a great install with good practice. I would have just put a 30ma rcd main switch at the front end & a main switch with circuit breakers in the shed, saving a bit of cash. (Being a shed in domestic situation.). Also if they are the new reduced height WYLEX RCBO’s they are switched neutral which means they are ideal for TT installs. I use them for board changes in TT.

    • @Mattja1
      @Mattja1 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'm pretty sure he's using the same tails I normally use these days, search for "flexi tail" on QVS. They are double insulated, the outside layer is just coloured too which is a bonus in my book (no need to mark them or check which is which when putting them in). As you probably guessed from the name they're 19 strand not 7 so they'll bend with far less strain, makes for a much easier install if you have any tight bends to make (like he did here), totally worth paying a few quid extra for imo.

      @Mattja1 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If the earth reading from the house TT is good enough you can use that. However do you think you may at some point get the house changed to PME? That gets done a lot these days. If you have no extraneous conductive parts in the outbuilding (anything that may introduce a true earth potential, basically metal going into the ground) then no problem, but if there are extraneous conductive parts I would rod it regardless of the reading from the house and separate them just so the house can be upgraded to PME in the future without having to worry about the outbuilding.
      On the other hand if the earth reading at the house is shit and you're stuck with TT get some rods in and link it up!
      TLDR: Inspect (keeping extraneous conductive parts in mind), test, consider likely future changes, make a judgement call and install accordingly.

    There's a possibility water could track down the cable and into the shed over time, even with sealant around it, because it's always going to be liable to movement, so eventually any sealant around the cable will crack, and with the location of the hole and wire its going to be tricky to get a loop in it now. Also being a TT system, that submain will not disconnect in the required time, if the RCD was inside, you would be ok, and no need for rcbos, also a bit cheaper.

      Esta Lindo in the house we’ve just moved into, the whole row of houses is connected together. Our cables comes between the buildings overhead, tees off to our DB and then goes of to next door where it tees off into their DB and then goes overhead between the buildings. Seems like they group a phase from the feeder pillar rather than teeing off the 3 phases to houses in order

      I was just going to add this. Also just another thing to remember... correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure you should have one means of isolating the whole supply by a main switch, currently now has two main switches.
      Nice neat work keep it up.
