Hello mate, bit of advice from an industrial spark, bootlace ferrules are designed for fine multi-strand conductors ( found in Flex, HO7, Tri-Rated etc) 7 strand conductors like what's found in SWA, 16mm Earth and that EV Ultra cable should have blade crimps installed if you feel they need something to keep the cores together at the termination. Ferrules can fail on these conductors :) Keep up the good work chap!
As a meter installer the 100amp sticker actually is for maximum fuse allowed, it could be an 80amp. BG policy is they should’ve applied their own sticker to identify the correct fuse. Great work though mate!
@@AdamDunlopElectrical U could put ur green ladder on ur roof rack on top of ur van and make space so u can access ur pack out kit from the back and also to make space for ur front shelving once u get ur selves fitted in the van
You’re about to get a load of stick for putting that board inside the meter cupboard 😂 also, those Henley blocks aren’t (as far as I’m aware) accepted by any meter installers and will likely need changing to the proteus coloured ones (seperate ones for L and N)
Not sure I agree with this install Adam. The meter cupboard should not have a CU inside it. eFixx done a episode about it about a year ago. The ENA (Energy Networks Association) have a document stating what goes where in the meter cupboard. It also looks like the isolator is in the wrong position and has the cables going over the meter. On closer inspection it seems the iso has been moved as there are screw holes visiable for the orignal location.
Try not to butt up the Henley right against the meter. The meter will get changed at some point, and it will be a slightly different size, so you really are going to annoy someone in future.
not true, the DNO owns the head and the meter company owns the meter but the homeowner owns the cupboard. there's plenty of room left so there's no issue.
@@ChristmasCrustacean1 check out the video in the above comment. Energy Networks Association the set the regs for the dno state only equipment installed by the dno and energy company can be inside the meter cupboard.
@@ChristmasCrustacean1plenty of room left? Yes after the isolator has been moved sideways. There’s no room in there for all that. That’s why the tails are over the equipment, the Henley block has been rammed up against the meter. Ultimately that’s why BG produce that board suitable for outdoor use. That board would have looked fine on the right hand side of the cupboard. Now there would have been ‘no issues’
