    Well I know myself and a few others, asked for some more content that didn't involve 'EV Chargers', and you have delivered. A massive thank you to you all for taking the time to film all this, given the situation and time, much appreciated by all your followers!. The backing music was also amazing.

      They are getting paid really well from the get go because their boss cares about them, try getting that level of commitment to the employees from places like Amazon, Tesco, Screwfix, where you are just a number to them... if you don't like it you know where the door is attitude from all the big companies. Its a crying shame, they just care about their overheads and profit margins... no wonder people are miserable in their jobs, they are not paid their worth.

      right, he's such a cry baby. I'm working in IT for 25+ years now, and next weekend will be another funny one. We'll have to shut down a whole data center (and bring it back online afterwards) cause the sparkies are too faint-hearted to work on its main power supply infrastructure while energized. And guess who will have to do the night shifts so that they can work nicely during the day? Only fair that it sometimes goes the other way around... :-)

    Watching this on the train coming home from a night shift, know exactly what you are going through. Also really enjoying the chemistry developing (no lab pun intended) with Lee on the team. Need to be careful though safety-wise on nights, too easy to make a mistake when the brain is fogged by tiredness. Take care!

  • @Chris_In_Texas
    @Chris_In_Texas 3 года назад +1

    That's why its so important in commercial and industrial settings to label all the sockets / switches and other connections with the panel/breaker. I know it takes time, but if you maintain that specific business it sure makes life easier. Even a hand drawn basic map as well with all the connections. I am the exception, I know to take the time and effort, but with over 650 m2 house and 80 breakers, the full listing sure has come in handy many times even in this house. I have almost 400 connection points (outlets / switches / hardwired points) in the house having a list is the only way to figure things out. You can't list what goes where on the breaker panel with that much detail. I guess that all came from my industrial control days and engineering. Great job guys! 👍🍻

    Having worked nights where a single mistake means instant dismissal it is easy to use calories to fight the tiredness. DO NOT DO THIS. You can expect to put on 40Kg (6 1/2 stone). It will creep up until you no longer need to hit huge intakes of food to keep this weight. It becomes the new normal which is almost impossible to lose. It all starts at 4am as you reach for a packet of biscuits.

    Pretty irresponsible for a company to ask people to drive and work with clearly insufficient rest time. Last job I worked in we sometimes needed to do overnight rail installs but my normal hours were daytime so if there was an install I wasn't allowed to work the day before or after but I didn't lose out on what my normal pay would have been plus I got extra for overnight/unsociable hours. Cory should have been sleeping the day before not getting to sleep "about midnight" driving with only a couple of hours sleep is how people die and possibly kill other people in the process. To deal with it sleep wise when I finished my day shift and got home I would stay awake until stupid o'clock in the morning then go to bed and sleep during the day, after finishing the night shift and getting home in the morning again I'd stay awake until late afternoon then go to bed.

    • @eric4709
      @eric4709 2 года назад

      Absolutely. (As they say at around 10:10)
      Not only does it mean each circuit has its "own" 30mA of leakage allowance - it also makes it much easier to identify which circuit(s) is/are at fault. And of course usually only ONE circuit will trip ( assuming there is only ONE fault - which is usually the case - barring some major damage etc affecting more that one cct - leaving the rest operating normally. Surely a FAR better way to go - especially in an environment like we see in this video.
      Personally - I ALWAYS fit RCBO's. I simply CANNOT see the point in fitting "split load" boards etc with MCB's where leakage/fault currents on several ccts thus add up on one single RCD **.
      ( and of course some of those leakage currents may well be "normal" - so it doesn't take much to get close to 30mA where say 6 or 7 circuits or more are "in the loop" - and - then it only takes a minor shift / surge in leakage to "trip the RCD " -bearing in mind many RCD''s will trip well below 30mA - (try the ramp test !) - and so then you have the even WORSE situation where you ask yourself - "is this a REAL fault?" - or is the system just "sailing close to the wind? - and so you end up spending a lot of time checking insulation resistance to find it is "ok" - and then chasing a few mA's of probably "normal" leakage on "loaded ccts" here and there......
      ** The ONLY reason it is done this way IMO is to save a little bit of hardware cost !
      How MANY times do we see the "cheap split load" 12-14 way board fully fitted out with a range of MCB's offered at "well known" trade outlets ?.
      Otherwise - WHY oh WHY fit MCB's / common RCD?? - For a the sake of a few extra £10's - is it worth it??
