Thanks for your great work on producing these videos. Very clear and informative. Where’s the buy me a coffee button? I would gladly send a coffee your way every now and then👍
Not at the moment Peter, but I will keep a finger on the pulse. The next amendment is 2026 I believe. I;ll let you know as soon as I do. Thanks for your support. Dave.
Great video 👍. I have the 18th Exam - a blue Book exam in 2019. Since then 3 amendments have been issued and new Brown Book is new regulated book we should be using. Could I download the 3 amendments and keep them in the blue book, and Wait until the 19th Edition is released and do the new exam ? Thanks
Not at all, the blue book has been withdrawn and there are so many changes between blue and brown, plus the amendments, that don't encompass all the changes. Brown book it is. Amendment 4 is in 2026 so 19th Edition will be a few years after that. thanks for watching. Dave.
Its got to be done. It will last you a couple of years. I can't see 19th edition happening until 2029 at least. I will obviously keep you updated. Dave.
@@learnelectrics4402 thanks for replying once again. I’ve just enrolled on C&G 2391 - 50 course at local college so will need to buy the new editions 👍
Thank you for the heads up . You Do have value in the videos that you produce and we sparks say Keep doing what you do. It took them a while to reach this amendment, don't we think. I first became aware of this need around 15 years ago, when doing a PV roof installation course and realised that the belt you could get from PV cells if you don't handle them correctly, could do you a lot of damage. Same with electric vehicles. When were the first milk floats and this was relevant back then, but is only being made an amendment in 2024. Hmm.
@@learnelectrics4402 Thank you for the value you give to us pasty arsed sparks. Since I saw this it has brought up a lot of conversations in the last few days, of the faceless experts who seem to be well too slow in protecting us and all to eager to shoot us down with "knowledge" and regulations that all us lads and girls on the front line have been asking for, for the longest of times.
@learnelectrics4402 I have an electrical setup with a meter that has Low & Normal (Economy 7) also there is a big white analog Sangamo timer which controls the heater fuse box. I asked EDF for a Smart Meter and they said I can't get one because of signal issues in the area. Is it possible for me to ask EDF to install a Smart Meter in limited mode and remove the old Sangamo timer?
Thanks for keeping us updated

Why does the mcb trip if live touches neutral what is the reason thanks
It is because the short circuit fault current exceeds the rating of the MCB and trips it to protect the cable
Exactly as Olly states below. Dave.
Brilliant support Olly, thank you. Dave.

This is something that only your supplier can answer. Different regions have slightly different rules.
I'm here again
Always welcome. Dave.
Surely charging your car at work to charge your batteries at home is stealing
Thanks for the input, I agree, but I had to explain two way flow somehow. Thanks for watching. Dave.
Lots of repetition.
Thanks for watching.
