With regards to fusing down extract fans I sent an email to manrose and got a reply.. see below Hi xxxx, following on from our telephone conversation on the 3rd of April I spoke with you regarding advice I was seeking for the 100mm extractor fans manrose manufactured. I was advised that when connecting the fans directly from a lighting circuit that are protected by a 6 amp MCB that this was deemed acceptable practice and that the requirement for a 3 amp fuse to be fitted as per installation instructions was only required when fans weren’t installed using this method. Given that you advised the fans have additional protection in the form of a thermal overload cutout I would concur that the above installation method would be fine. I asked if it was possible to have this information in writing in the form of either additional tech info or some other form of written statement to which you advised me to send an email. Could you please reply to my the request as I would like to attach this additional info to my customers electrical installation certificates stating that I have still complied with manufacturers installation requirements. Hi Stuart, Unfortunately I do not have any documents/data sheets that obtain the information required, I had to ask my manager and he has stated: “A local 3 amp fuse is not required if the lighting circuit is 6 amp protected with an RCD/MCB in place.” I hope this information given is suitable enough. Many thanks. * I will be printing this email and attaching a copy to every manrose fan installation certificate in future... I have had the same conversation with two other manufacturers and have emailed the same request. Still waiting for the response.. to be honest I’m surprised to get anything in writing... hope this helps, as it’s been a headache for me on certain installs.

In NZ we are allowed to extend any final sub circuit, say a 6mm 32A oven circuit, with a reduction in wire size down to 2.5mm, you could even go down to 1mm if you wanted, without installing a splitter box and overload protection at the point of reduction. As long as the equipment connected is unlikely to cause an overload and does not have a rating that exceeds the current carrying capacity of the cable used to extend the circuit. The MCB at the origin of the sub circuit offers the required short circuit protection and as long as volt drop has been calculated there should be no issue with EFLI. Note that this is the case for hardwired equipment only, socket outlets are not allowed to be done in this manner as loading of connected equipment at a socket outlet can not be determined at the time of install.

Unless to can show the manufacturers recommendations are incorrect or dangerous then you must comply to them, there was a recent case where an extract fan caught fire causing extensive damage, the installer was found guilty of neglect for not following the manufacturers guidelines as it stated a 3amp fuse must be fitted... the fact that the 3amp fuse wouldn't have made a difference in stopping the fire was irrelevant as it was demonstrated by the fan manufacturer that the installer simply hadn't followed regulation and taken the manufacturers instructions into account. If you do omit the 3amp fuse in direct conflict with the installation instructions then I would make sure you definitely do have your arse covered because it can put you in the firing target even if you can show it didn't contribute to the fire nor would it have prevented it.

@@genome616 We obviously get different instructions from you as I have never seen extractor fan instructions say that you must fuse their fans. Manrose is a popular brand here too. Here in NZ circuit protection is for just that protecting circuits not appliances attached to circuits. Nor can you buy fused spur units here and NZ plug tops don't have fuses. The reason for this difference is because you guys still have ring circuits.
@genome6165 жыл бұрын
@@cunning-stunt I'm am simply reflecting on the BS7671 which clearly states that manufacturers guidelines need to be taken into consideration, to ignore them would mean an excursion of the regulations which requires you to supply the relevant information and risk assessment if needed with the testing paperwork for the install. There are many brands of fan that do specify a 3amp fuse and many that do not but this could be more to do with integral fusing in the fan which is often a one shot thermal fuse on the motor.

The driveway has been left until last as I have explained every problem to the customer including a video demonstration of where the water is pooling.

In Europe they're quite rare and I'm fairly sure you can't use US components here because they were manufactured and tested to different standards (trip curve etc.).

I haven't found much on them but it seems like that plant only lasted for three or four years. I do have three German 15-amp FPE MCBs (not StabLOKs although they do have the logo on them, they're of the lug-lug type, i.e. they've got screws on both the line and load sides instead of slotting into a bus bar) and I'd really like to test one of them if it trips (of course outside and probably using 12 V AC from a halogen transformer).

Thought I would try to offer an unbiased view here as many people are bashing the client. If she got rude/abusive that is wrong. However, he never said she was, just that she wasn't understanding of his position. 1. We all know that some trades people (not CJR obviously, and I hope all is now well with the family) mess about, claiming family problems because they are working multiple jobs and eventually don't finish etc. I would think we have all seen the type on Rouge Traders. So often customers are wary, and even if issues are genuine, some are "open ended" and the "I need a few days to look after my family." can turn into weeks......or more. 2. As a customer, when I agree to pay a firm for a job to be done, I expect it to be done in the time agreed and for the price agreed (barring hidden issues). If the firm is unable to keep to contract I have every right to complain or end the contract. 3. When I hire people I know are one man bands, rather than large firms who can move crews around, I will ALWAYS be compassionate and try to give that leeway, unless there is a serious time issue (like no heating in winter with an infant etc). 4. If I have to end a contract I will still pay for work done to date. I may want a bit off for inconvenience/time to go back through getting quotes etc, but if a man works a day he deserves his pay. I think CJR should submit a sensible invoice based on this, I would pay it. 5. Having run a business myself (very small) I have been in almost every connotation of this. Without details it is not fair to simply blame the client. To a worker family comes first, to a business the job comes first. When you work as a single worker this creates a conflict that forces a choice. I am glad you chose family, but the client has not hired "you" but a business to do the job. It is a shame she was not more forgiving, but I don't think she should be vilified for it.

You could try advising the landlord in writing that the extractor fan is required to prevent mould build up in the bathroom, and should they refuse to install the extractor fan, cleaning the mould will become their responsibility...along with any medical bills if they don't regularly clean the mould and it results in health problems. You have to remember that landlords are running a business, not a charity, so things need to be put in business terms. An extractor fan is cheaper than hiring cleaners regularly and potential medical liabilities, so that's one way of making it the more attractive option. Of course something like this may also get you flagged as a demanding/undesirable tenant, so it's not without some element of risk.
