Hi, thanks for that. Where does the neutral and earth go in this set up? The wires go out the bottom of the box. Do they both attach together at the ground stake? Thanks

Did you do a video on wiring an inverter into the db board for only some plugs in the house (with a low load).?
@mrtechie6810 Жыл бұрын
Terrible idea to have two feeds to the same electric panel. That is confusing, non-standard, and a huge safety hazard for all! The inverter should have its own separate electric box/panel.

I actually have a query. I'd be thankful if you could help me out. i have purchased a 8 way tpn mcb box. however on all 3 phase loads, only 6 are occupied by mcbs. But the busbar link which came with the packaging has 8 positions. so how should I isolate the remaining two links.?

Very helpful. Do you have a video on how to install a double throw switch to bypass an inverter to supply the loads from the grid?
@travismailsa110 ай бұрын
Both inputs into the bottom, one being mains, one being inverter supply, then top is output of either inverter at bottom, bypass middle and grid up/top

Hi, you put a jumper cable that can carry 10amps from circuit breaker 3 to circuit breaker 4. So, circuit breaker 4 is rated at 10amps which is fine for that jumper cable to handle. But isn't that jumper cable a fire hazard if circuit breaker 3 is also pulling 10amps. Should that jumper cable not be rated to carry 20amps if both breaker 3 and breaker 4 pulls 10amps = 20amp.
@durragas46712 ай бұрын
No, the 10A jumper cable creates a closed circuit over circuit breaker 4 only. CB 3 can function with or without that 10A jumper which tells you it's not needed for CB3. But just using 4mm cable for jumpers should solve this because that handles 64A just fine.

Even with a busbar the higest rated MCBs should be closest to the main switch in descending order.

What if the panel has various brands of MCBs that have different heights -- so the busbar won't reach the shorter ones?
@superpooper_2030 Жыл бұрын
You should buy the same size (same width & height) to avoid loose connection of busbar. I have 4 different brands but with same size in same row
@superpooper_2030 Жыл бұрын
If you are worried about future add-ons, always buy extra few MCB and install together with busbar. That's what I am doing

The wires going in the 63A circuit breaker are the same section as the one going to the individual breakers, neither can hold 63A, so the main breaker needs to be changed first of all!

When I see videos like this I often think that, while they contain good information, if inexperienced DIYers don't know this stuff they really shouldn't be working on their house wiring. Yes the video teaches useful information but what about the thousand other things it doesn't teach, that experience and training have taught, that could end up causing a house fire or electrocuting someone?

Well it is actually science a 16mm cable underground is rated at 80 amps and overhead is rated to 63 amps due to length of run and derating due to heat in a switchboard a 4mm cable could actually be rated at 80 amps and easier to work with
