A 3 day week that felt like a 10 day week 😂

Anything that could have been tricky, was.

Cutting out old conduits (that were also being utilised as the earth as well as the containment) & repurposing the old switch drops.

Highest R1-R2 on the old conduits was 1.21 ohms. Not bad.

The metabo got it's debut.

Penultimate pic is the best solution I had, given the time frame to guard the cables exiting / entering the conduits, given time constraints.

The last picture sums the week up

Late night post. Controversial.

4mm² radial.

Derated to a 25a 61009 as it's been wholloped in by yours truly using Ref Method B.

Structural JBs - they have been banished.

Thank you please.

Phase 1 of one of the more enjoyable and interesting projects we've had for a while complete.

New 16mm² 3 core SWA feeding a new submain (db4) replacing pic 7, which was fed by a 16mm² T&E that was half in the ground and half out with no containment. New 100A/ 100mA type S RCD with OCPD fitted upstream to db4. Replacing a 100A /100mA RCD, originally there was no OCPD on the T&E.

Pump Room redone - I've popped pics of the old 3036 board that has been ripped out. That board was fed by some flex leading to a socket in the nearby garage... Noice.

Phase 2 starts in a few weeks. More tray and SWA work so shall post that too.

Board. Bonds. Beer. It's my stag do this weekend. Hopefully I'll come back?

Re-supplied a gate with an appropriate cable.
It was Twin & Skin buried in a hose pipe on a 35 meter run.
Tray work & some fabrication.
14 foot roller door to work around.
This final circuit is now decent.
