Still way way better than what my grandpa had done in the house they built way back when... Spiders are envious of that wiring 😅

@_DDEEZZ 2 года назад

New camera is decent 👌🏾

@patrickd9551 2 года назад

I still have to go and replace my unit too. I added like 5 new circuits for the kitchen and wired only half of them on top of existing circuits. Yes I have sockets in my kitchen that are unusable for a year now. The wires sweep across my wall without proper protection. You are not alone :)

@John-gv1fl 2 года назад

Looking forward to the install mate, will be an interesting one!

@blanka7794 2 года назад

The camera is neat! Would love to see some cable tray fabrication bends at new rig in the future. Keep up with the good work.

@SparkyNinja 2 года назад

Great to see you're getting a lot of functional space out of your unit.

@JayTheSparky 2 года назад

Access to live parts C1, basic insulation outside and enclosure C2…that’s just rough 🤣 This sounds like my inner monologue when I’m doing an EICR 🤣

@JayTheSparky 2 года назад

To be fair…there’s a fire extinguisher near the board 🤣👌🏻

@pnxelectrical Год назад

The line about the sister having a client over is wrong on so many levels 🤣 I can hear the internal voice as you're walking round the garage..."oh FFS dad", "wtaf has he done here", "I definitely don't get my precision and skills from him", I wonder if the milkman used a be a spark?" ad nauseum 😜

@sergiofernandez3725 2 года назад

Good to see you doing Sparky content. I think your parents place is going to be a lot of work, probably more than the Loadout warehouse. Just in the garage there are a lot of JBs I bet there are many more hidden under the floor inside. You may even find some old VR cables as well. Good luck on the mission. Worth fitting an emergeny backup light above the board/CU in case of a power cut or tripped circuit. I know you will leave it looking great and be more than fit for purpose, as you do with all your installs. I look forward to this series of videos

@stfdeath1 2 года назад

The new camera is decent, you can tell the content looks tops. To me its all coming together, well done mate, Top work

@three-phase562 2 года назад

Workshop area is looking well decent 👍. I think domestic installs now are almost heading into the territory of commercial installations. Boards like the one you have are ok where there is the room in a garage install, but that would be a headache of an install for boards located in a house. Totally agree with your description of using a leakage meter, the DCM305E is a good meter, actually a rebranded Appa Instrument, the auto backlight does annoy me though.

@garry2115 2 года назад

Hi Mike, Many thanks for taking us on a tour of your parents wiring. I’m looking forward to your thought process and the stages of bringing the C. U. up to the latest regulations and standards. Until then, take care, stay safe. 👍⚡️

@goburnz 2 года назад

There's no requirement for double-pole switching on TN systems, so there's probably no need for DP RCBO if you use PME facility with Open-PEN protection on the charger side. I believe TT installs for EV chargers are increasingly rare these days.

@anthonybragg 2 года назад

Not bothered about the camera it's the content and you that are engaging. I got our new regs book the other day and noticed the cover is more robust than the blue one and past ones. bit worried at first regarding not being able to run services through escape routes which are mainly corridors and thought that it would be a problem as most services run through main corridors then it was explained it was protected escape routes and what they were. As long as everyone is pricing from the same hymn sheet.

@camperbuildsolutions1691 2 года назад

Brilliant video as always :) I ordered from Professional Books as well and I had to phone and chase the delivery of mine a week after the new regs were released. I Couldn't believe they stuck their stickers all over the books as well!!

@ForTheBirbs 2 года назад

As soon as the vid started I was like "hello, is this a new cam?". Nice! What make is it? And nothing like a good cuppa Mikey! I loo forward to the upcoming videos! Cheers

@Sparks1Plumbers0 2 года назад

Wow.... all them jobs we use to blame on DIY Dave were (possibly) down to a young Mikey 🤣🤣. As you admit... some of that was well rough, C1 & scarper 😉. And sorry dude but you've lost your catch phrase... Paul [Meenan] does it better especially with that cheeky little grin of his. "Wat's good guys" 🤣 Looking forward to your follow up video, especially the part where you condem your parents home and slate your dads handy work. Classic 👍

@johnhoward2104 2 года назад

Another awesome video. Good to see some genuineness about previous installs, but how you've come on! Looking forward to the that Schneider install video - go as granular as you like on that one, the more info the better. Camera work and sound seemed fine to me.

@JasperJanssen 2 года назад

“That thing’s older than me” - dude, that battery charger is older than your dad, in all likelihood.

instead of a 3 tier single phase board. what's your thoughts on using a 3 phase board and linking out the 3 phase incomer with some bus bar to make it single phase

Top-notch content as always Mike! I’m very surprised you blokes in England have such small consumer units. The apartment I’m in now has a 12Way TPN board 😂 What’re your thoughts on an earth electrode on PME supplies (now recommended as per AMD2)?

Why not a 3 phase acti9 board with a single phase linking out kit? If the acti9 AFDDS are not available to play with yet save them for then workshop board :)

@ukbullylife7968 2 года назад

Camera quality is sick!! What camera did You get ? Slightly off topic best bag does veto win over all ?

@spikester 2 года назад

I presume one must clamp all 3 tails (L1/L2/N) when testing entire boards for leakage on north american residential single split-phase? Or one must measure 3 different points? L1/N L2/N L1/L2? EDIT: clamping L1/L2 would require one to take load off neutral, so testing 240V appliances only.

@Romeworld95 2 года назад

Content is great bro. Glad to see you doing some Electrical work again. Enjoy the stuff in the unit but this what I'm here for. 2 things: 1. Saw your review on the Velocity Stealth 500. Was gonna order from your site but went for the Velocity Rogue 9.0 instead which you didn't stock. 2. The whole 2 earthing arrangements for that "EV charger" is really dodgy, please sort this out 😅

Ever have much of an issue with shared neutrals over there?

@JasperJanssen 2 года назад

Pre-rcd UK board changes on RU-vid seem to run into them all the time. Here (Netherlands) junction boxes are not allowed to have wires from multiple circuits in them, shared neutrals are not exactly *unknown* but they’re very rare.
