In this video, we were called out to an electrical fire at Oakhampton, Devon.
We got the call at 11am whilst we were at another job and dropped what we were doing to get to this job asap.
When we arrived, the customer was still in shock and explained what had happened.
Apparently since the electric shower had been installed, there was a buzzing from the consumer unit every time it was used. (this was due to an overloaded breaker). She was having a shower when the RCD exploded into flames. She quickly wrapped a towel around herself and ran past the flames and spitting sparks. The fire was quite extreme at this point and black smoke filled the upstairs of the property. She ran upstairs, grabbed the cat and ran back outside, in the rain, in her towel and called the fire services.
We arrived at 12pm and national grid had already been to cut the supply off and fire services had left after putting the fire out.
After assessing the damage, we collected the relevant materials from the wholesaler and started to remove all fire damaged electrical equipment, plaster, plasterboard and cut back burnt cables for jointing.
There were cables coming from multiple directions and most of them had to be sent to an upstairs cupboard for jointing.
We then installed a new fireproof backboard, enclosure and left space for the new meter and cutout.
National grid could not get back out to us until 2am so we called at a day at 9pm. The customer was able to stay at her mums over the way that evening.
We rearranged national grids visit time from 2am to 4pm, this gave us the chance to get most of the job finished before they arrived to power back up.
Next day we continued with the jointing upstairs and connection of the new consumer unit. National grid then came back to install the new cut out meter and supply cable, one of the gentlemen kindly explains what they had to do.
This video is a perfect example of why our current fire regulations are so important and why getting regular electrical installation condition reports is vital! You get your boiler safely checked every year, why would you not get your electrical installation safety checked every 5 years?

    Hi. I'm planning to install 3 cameras with NVR. Some sources said it's cheaper and better to have 'Acusense cameras + basic NVR' rather than 'basic ip cameras + Acusense NVR'. In my case, I only want to record based on the triggered event such as human or car. Not full recording 24/7. Is it possible with Acusense cameras + basic NVR? Are there settings to let the NVR record based on the event notif by camera, not by the NVR interpretation?

    90% sure the problem will have started when the smart meter was installed, most meter workers are not given full electrician training so can't legally go into RCD isolators or consumer units. Those RCD isolators can be a pain when they have clamp type connections, always coming loose when disturbed, that's why they need to be clipped in place before changing the meter 😬

    A very interesting video. I love my Heatmiser system, fitted it many years ago, over 12 years maybe. Our house is open-plan on the ground floor, using a wet under floor heating (UFH), with 5 or so loops, laid in aluminium spreader plates under oak veneer engineered flooring, it is just one zone. About six years ago I added a conservatory/utility room with wet UFH, laid under screed with a natural stone tiling on top, this is a second zone. Upstairs is a third zone with ordinary radiators. The hot water is a fourth zone. We are both retired and spend a lot of time at home, especially in the winter. Using the app I change the programming daily as we go into and emerge from winter. Each year I come up with a few tweaks that I try out to refine the process, the app is simple enough that this can be done quickly. We live in the SE and thankfully our winters have been mild for the most part, we spend the winter days in relative comfort in the conservatory. I believe I understand my system well as I have fitted it and learnt about it over the years. I would hate to be plonked down in front of a strange, complex system, as you were and told to fix it before the end of the day, great work.

    Wow this vid looks like what I need. Just as a rough and dirty estimate… how best to get power to a shed 1 metre from the house, then continue on to a future garden room 9 metres from the house? One cable popping up in the shed, then carrying on to the garden room? Just need sockets and lights in both, and two electric radiators in the garden room. Would 16mm2 cable do the trick?

Use ports 9 and 10 on the meter and the meter port on the inverter is correct. (+ & - are correct on both ends of the cable.) there is output on this twisted cable. But the system not seeing the meter. The meter displays all data such as voltage, download power, current, frequency, and so on. Maybe I require an EM115 meter !!! thanks

For a home refurb project I have ufh setup on a single floor with 4 separate heating zones using all heatmeiser equipment - thermostats (neostat), neohub(Gen2), wiring centre (UH8-RF), actuators (on manifold). The boiler in place is Vailant ecotec plus 625. To achieve boiler modulation is only the VR71 needed in addition to the heatmeiser equipment I already have? Or do I need to replace the heatmeiser equipment with Vailant ones?

    Hi, Interesting video. Just subed you. What reading was you getting at the sockets for the R1+R2? Would this be more than r1+r2/4? I got some high readings from sockets in the past, but useing some switch cleaner on the tester plug brought the reapinds down. I put this down to the contacts being dirty.

    • @HeritageElectrical
      @HeritageElectrical 9 місяців тому

      Hi Bill, thanks for watching. The R1+R2 readings passed when the socket plates were removed and cables jointed. The issue which we see a lot, as we test 100% of socket outlets, is a big difference between each side of the socket plate. In this case there were readings of >2000 on one plate and variations of 0.30 - 1.60 ohms difference between each side of some other socket plates. As the sockets were cheap, had been in 10 years and such a poor job had been done of connections, we changed the plates. In most situations we wouldn't bother trying to repair socket plates anyway, as they are not expensive to buy. We see them like brake pads on a car, they get a lot of wear and tear and at some point they will fail and need replacing, so we may as well do it if the readings aren't looking good. We always give the customer the options first, and they are always happier to go with the higher standard of work we recommend. Cheers Paul

      Hi mate, thanks for the comment. You're correct: 7.28 is the 100% value, however we take the 80% value as a maximum measured which is about 5.8 to account for temperature fluctuations, installation considerations etc. I don't know why we have to note 100% values on the sheet when in practice we're working to the 80% value, but there we are!

    Many thanks for this video. Am looking at adding an AC coupled battery to my exisiting Enphase PV solution. Probably late now, but you could have saved teh coinduit by having the data cable enter with the battery cables and then loop out of one of the spare compression glands.
