Barney12 Posted February 7, 2018 Posted February 7, 2018 Thats time consuming consumer units to be precise. Its certainly one way to releive the evening boredom and stop me drinking so much gin My tame sparky came this morning to check my work and gave me a gold star. Actually he offered me a job 1
PeterW Posted February 7, 2018 Posted February 7, 2018 So..... very tidy work but how are you dealing with the holes in the back of the units from a fire resistance perspective where they go through the walls ..?
Onoff Posted February 7, 2018 Posted February 7, 2018 I remember you going to Live rather than SBS. Compacts would have saved you a lot of wiring there. Also, treat yourself to a box of these: https://uk.rs-online.com/mobile/p/cable-marking-kits/9140592/ Looks great though.

My sparky was happy with the intumescent seals at the backs (you cant see them in the photo) and then fire resistant sealant to fill the holes. The other side is a cupboard so we have full access to the back. 1
PeterW Posted February 7, 2018 Posted February 7, 2018 Wondered if you were using those ..! Where did the intumescent pads come from ..?

My sparky got them from his wholesaler. Denmans? Not sure if they're a national? P.S. I'm not sure they'll do much to be honest and don't lets get this thread off into the stupid metal clad CU b*ll*cks. Edited February 7, 2018 by Barney12

Onoff Posted February 7, 2018 Posted February 7, 2018 CEF do Aico intumescent gaskets in different sizes if anyone needs them. Meant to go in the back of back boxes, roses etc. 1
MikeSharp01 Posted February 7, 2018 Posted February 7, 2018 (edited) More computers than went with all the Apollo missions put together, but perhaps fewer than are, as we correspond, flashing through space in the confines of a music playing sports car - wonder how they get the royalties back to the Bowie estate - and it will be in a 1 billion year orbit on the wrong side of the road, now that's what I call panache.
