Good work del in getting the job put right. Whoever has wired it has made a right mess like you say it wanted bigger conduit, another point to mention is all them different circuits travelling through accessories they should of used tee boxes then drop down to the accessory eg socket or switch.

Some times the din rail earth terminals connect to the din rail and cause parallel paths. If I use din rail terminals now I have stopped using the green/yellow terminals and use grey etc as it caused problems including induction of voltage onto other connected circuits etc.

@cbcdesign0013 жыл бұрын
Din rail terminals should never be used like that. They are designed to be pushed together, an insulated end plate fitted to the last terminal in the row and end stops used either side of the terminals to keep them in place. Whoever installed them doesnt have a clue what they are doing.

I'm half way through the video. Looks like objectional current (as Mike Holt says). Neutral to ground, but seeing as there are no loads connected to any of the sockets. There would be an current imbalance phase to neutral, so why is the RCB/GFCI not tripping ?
@anwah1003 жыл бұрын
Hi Del your earth interconnection is at those earth terminals in the trunking you need to change the earth terminals for insulated terminals. The earth terminals green and yellow ones when screwed to the din rail are continuos with each other connect the earth cables from each circuit through insulated din rail terminals will sort the interconnection, no need for pulling in extra cables.

@tysondundas19473 жыл бұрын
@@bigsteve6729 what voltage was it showing? Induced, leakage, some sort of cross over in the circuits, rubbed cable insulation, failing discharge gear in the lighting? Alsorts of situations can make a socket tester show faults that maybe real or phantom. Once a socket tester shows issues you should be moving onto insulation testing to verify there is a fault and if so where. So in answer to your you question, no most likely the tester is not broken but they will work on erinaceous voltages and no real curret some of which could be induced through cpc's running with live cables, these units take very little power and can be fooled by some of the situations listed above. A socket polarity testing unit is intended to give a quick indication that the polarity is correct when the power is energised it is not a fault finding instrument that can give you anything like the level of information required to make a fully factual decision as to what fault you may or may not be chasing.

Less than 7 minutes in and I am already thinking it's voltage leak from the emergency lights. Will edit later if I am wrong. Didn't appear to be wrong as Del never really went back into it but I've had that buzzing and voltage so many times before in commercial premises with metal containment and emergency lighting that you just get used to it. Fastest way to test is if you turn off everything but lighting, buzz stays then it's the lighting circuit, after that turn off all the light fittings (normal office fittings) if buzzing still persists then turn off the fish tail keys. More than likely it's the permanent feed to the emergency lights and the inverter leaking voltage normally 7-12 volts a fitting down the cpc - normally DC so if touched oh it hurts. Either swap out the fittings for new ones or have total cpc separation back to the board.
