[@jillosler9353]

Loved your comment reaction to Phil 🤣🤣🤣👏👏. Did you feel relieved 🤣? "Who invented Electricity?" is a minefield question because there are varied answers ranging from Benjamin Franklin in 1752 when he experimented using a kite and a key on a rainy day (to show the relationship between lightning and electricity); to Faraday, Volta, Edison and Tesla. I guess each improved on what had come before? Well done Joe on completing the working Inverter (minus the snagging bits and bobs) and the washing machine. Not forgetting the Bathroom door done so well by Danni. You are a good team! Glad you are also chilling as well as ticking off all the to-do jobs on your list; the pinny looks gorgeous Danni ❤

[@ItsOhJoe]

Idk if you solved the problem of something to hold your shower sprayer over the sink, yet. I use microphone holders (clips) that are spring-loaded and hold a variety of sizes of microphones. Perhaps something like that could be adapted to position over the sink and hold the shower nozzle. Just an idea. Love your show. Been following since the narrowboat restore and have almost caught up to the present day. A few more episodes to go.

Absolute bargain pinnie Danni, great work on the boat again Joe.

Thanks Paul!

[@DawidKellerman]

Hey we also use 220/240 Volts.. You should really install a RCD /earth leakage. It compares the power going in and coming back if any is lost ie you touch a open wire it will trip and save your life. Unless the inverter has that built in but I did not see anything.. they are easy to fit also

[@ItsOhJoe]

We have the MCB's / Circuit breakers but will look at adding an RCD, may be worth it in the long run.

Since Danni mentioned electrical earths... Yes, the water would earth you - if you were connected to the grid. But, your voltage potential is with the terminal of your inverter so you need an "earth" that offers lower resistance than your bodies to the -ve side of it.

If yuur not using glands to hold those cables and conduit on the boxes maybe put a big zip tie around the cable where it enters the box on the inside so the weight of the cable is supported by the zip tie against the tight holes your drilling. Also help in time to not pull the cabke out of it terninals if your going through the bottom of the pattress.

European voltage is 220, and the two pin plugs have earth connections on the side of the plugs👍😀

[@ItsOhJoe]

Oh really? Way ahead of us aren’t they 😂

[@MarcusHawksley]

European voltage is nominally 230v, including the UK. It was standardised in 2003, however the reality is that the UK is often closer to 240 and much of Europe remains closer to 220, in Finland it is generally 230 nowadays. Some European plugs use side earth (north), some a central earth pin that protrudes from the socket(south). Often sockets found in bedrooms, landings and living rooms have no earth at all. Simply it is all a mess, and that is before you get to ring mains and more...

Ok, so I’m just a fat 78 year old man and have not too much experience with 240 volt electricity but I’m not sure I like the idea of copper covers for outlets.

Nothing wrong with being fat and 78, must at least be well fed! 😂 Genuinely agree it just goes against any logical thinking of electrical conductivity!

[@dbaldock9]

Really enjoying your Narrowboat Renovation. I've got a question, and a suggestion - Do you have two 230VAC circuits? If so, shouldn't the "source" wires from the Inverter to the circuit breakers be the same wire gauge as the total of two load wires - in case both loads are being used at the same time?

[@ethelmini]

Yes, if the circuit breakers are the only overload protection, but I'd be surprised if the inverter doesn't have its own (the breakers wouldn't protect a short circuit before them) & the current capacity will be higher if the supply side is short runs that aren't enclosed in a wall etc.

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thanks John! So glad we got both the washing machine and the inverter installed this week we were really putting it off!

[@Marks-Garage]

Just one observation on the electrical side of things. You new consumer unit has two 16 amp breakers so the potential to pull 32 amps in total. It looks like you used 2.5mm flex for the connection from consumer unit to the inverter. I think that type of flex is rated to a total of 20amps. I would install a cable thats rated to the maximum the inverter can output. What im basically saying is that say you had a fault or lots of load on both 16amps circuits you have the potential to overheat that 2.5mm cable. Its hard to know what exact size to use but i would imagine 6mm would be good for 32amps, It all depends on what the inverter can output on max. Other than that workmanship looks top notch and boat is coming along nicely!

[@ItsOhJoe]

Ahhhh really good point, thank you! I’ll get some thicker gauge between the Inverter and Consumer asap

[@rpaasse6453]

@@ItsOhJoe Yes Mark is right, make it thicker wire. There's special wire for low voltage high amp connections.

[@Marks-Garage]

@@ItsOhJoe having looked again your inverter is rated for 3000w continuous and a surge of 6000w. 2.5mm would be fine for the 3000w but at 6000w the cable will be struggling. For peace of mind 6mm to the consumer unit would be spot on. Belt and Braces 👍

[@tysondundas1947]

The UK is 230v, Europe is 220v America is a bit of a mix 120v as a standard but they also have 240v for appliances. 110v is building site electrics in the UK. Look up boot lace farrells for crimping onto the ends of the flex when terminating because they are now standard practice and much better for the screws to bit on without cutting the strands of the copper.

[@ItsOhJoe]

Ahh yes was the building site electrics I got that from & US being 120v. We found their plugs quote awkward when travelling as anything heavy would just fall out the wall! I’ve got a ferrule set and another comment reminded me, I’ll go back over the 240 and add them to the wires.
