No need for fancy intros….
No need for fancy graphics….
No need for clickbait….
Everything you see i have purchased myself, this gives me complete control to voice my honest opinion about any product
Just day to day sparky videos
If you like it, that’s cool, if you don’t, that’s cool as well.
Remember, context is important, I can’t show/film every part of every test otherwise I’d still be there now😂just assume I’ve carried it out correctly
Excellent video regarding the earth leakage on the board-
Thanks!
Totally with you mate, I like to take my time with EICR's as well.
Heard of some that reckon to do 4 a day but I can't see how.
4 in a day not properly is achievable 😂
@@bristolsparky on the streets there's word about a old way of inspecting and testing called a drive-by EICR
@@contytub 😂😂
@@bristolsparky: I saw one a while back for a park home site, 30 + units plus street lighting supposedly tested by a team of 2 over a period of 3 days (yeah right), sheets bore little relation to the actual site. Things like Earthing to each unit listed as TNS when a lot of the older units were TT'd etc or 2 x 30ma RCD's in series on quite a few units but none of that picked up.
Great Video, Looks good with the New Board. The light Fittings are def past their Sell buy Date.
I think so too!
People are obviously aware you do them properly and happy to pay to do it right.

Napit have a testing platform aswell, quite expensive but very good for coding etc. Great work mate (100ma rcd is that applicable for additional protection.
No it’s not applicable for additional protection. I’ve used NICEIC, napit, every software and Electraform & Easycert are the best imo
Lovely board change buddy. Very neat.
Just out of curiosity why did you use AFDD's? Instead of just using RCBO's for the socket circuits.
It’s part of an HMO
Wow that’s a lot of leakage on them lights, interesting to know what you’d do here since putting it on its own 30mA rcbo is likely to cause a nuisance trip, would you A-see how it goes
B-split the lighting circuit in 2 somehow
C-change to modern fittings.
Obviously price would be a factor but I’d have said C would be the one to go with, what’s your opinion mate?
Yeah, ideally the old flourescent fittings need replacing. Due to the sale, I just disconnected some lights.
likely one or two lights causing it really, as opposed to a cumulation of all. It's unusually high even for old stuff. Would be interesting to isolate one by one to see.
But new panels are relatively cheap, hardly worth the effort messing about
@@blow0me i disconnected 2 that looked the worse & it reduced the leakage. It’s getting sold no need to mess around with additional time/money fitting new lights
@@bristolsparky Yea. Highest I've seen although non RCD circuit, is over 100mA. But that's an extreme street lighting scenario with like 70 lights each circuit on 2 TP circuits one around 1500m, the other over 2000m of cable. Been in for 20+ years, and various faults no doubt. They do trip the MCB's regularly, but nobody wants to cough up to replace everything.
Stop swearing.. the beeps hurt my ears. 👍
