Diverted Neutral Current Demonstration - Normal, Open CNE, Current Circulation (Part 2) John Ward 2023-09-21 | A demonstration of diverted neutral current using a 12V AC test rig. This represents two adjacent properties with TN-C-S supplies via a CNE (combined neutral and earth) cable and a shared extraneous conductive part. Demonstration includes:► normal operation► current sharing between the CNE and bonding conductors► what happens with an open CNE in one property and not in the adjacent one► the situation with more than two properties all connected to the same extraneous part.In all cases, current can be found in the bonding conductors connected to shared metallic parts such as gas or water pipes.Note that this demonstration uses a custom manufactured test rig which runs on an isolated 12 volt AC supply. Some of the items shown would be dangerous if done with 230V or a real electrical installation.
Diverted Neutral Current - Description Overview Part 1 John Ward 2023-09-07 | Diverted Neutral Current, also known as Neutral Current Diversion. This can occur both in normal operation and when there is a problem with the supply network. Part 1 covers the basic principles of both.
Extension Lead Repair - MK Panel Sockets John Ward 2023-08-24 | Replacing panel mounted MK sockets in a metal extension reel.Sockets are MK 735WHI, and are the same size as those made decades ago. There is an ancient data sheet for the original ones here: docs.rs-online.com/739a/0900766b811ef79c.pdf which is dated July 1959.Flex is 2.5mm² 3 core PVC. This is significantly larger than most extension reels available today which are typically 1.5mm² or even smaller. This can be used at full load while wound up, as the larger cable has a lower resistance, so a lot less heat is generated in it .Patreon: patreon.com/jwflameKo-Fi: ko-fi.com/jwflameWebsite: flameport.com

Siemens VOELCB examination and Tinned Copper or Aluminium wiring? John Ward 2021-08-08 | An old and obsolete voltage operated earth leakage circuit breaker.These were used on TT installations in the 1970s and earlier to disconnect the supply if a fault occurred between live and an earthed metal part of the installation.These devices are NOT RCDs, and do not provide any protection against electric shock.The principle is that they are tripped by a voltage between the earth electrode for the installation and the earth connection to exposed conductive parts within the installation.The wiring attached to this is tinned copper, and not aluminium. Aluminium wiring in small sizes was only in use for a very short period and was copper clad. 99% or more of wiring with a silver appearance is tinned copper.00:00 Introduction01:00 The Item02:58 Inside05:17 Trip coil06:55 Buttons08:45 Trip using DC voltage11:49 Tinned copper wiring14:54 TFW

This could be for things such as a hot tub, EV charge point or an outbuilding.A TT system must be completely separate from any other earthing system, including connections via extraneous conductive parts shared with other buildings.
