    Hi Tom, I work for WISKA. Re-enterable means that you can take it apart to access the connections. We do make a version called Replay which can be taken out and re used.

    re-enterable means you can take it apart again, as opposed to a resin joint.

    22:24 I remember dave on eevblog did a video on that, in electronics its called potting material and normal it hardens like a rock. reentry potting turns into a gel so it can be removed later or if you have say a potentiometer or other component that can adjusted you can just slide a tool through the potting material, make your adjustments, and pull the tool out and it should reseal itself

    • @JN.0_o
      @JN.0_o 2 роки тому +6

      Exactly, normal potting compound is a hard setting epoxy. The gel is re-enterable since you can scoop it out, make changes and put some fresh stuff in. Hard potted boxes just get cut off, binned and replaced.

    I can see those solar columns on 20mp roads. Make so much sense. Need a clear position with no vegetation/building blocking the panels though.

    Hey Mr Nagy - I can recommend "bioglan throat clear lemon & honey" lozenges for your cough if you can get them, they take the tickle away and if you're like me, does a reasonable job of clearing sinuses.

    The PIR colums we´ve had here in Denmark for a couple of years. When any one column senses motion the five closest around it go to 100% for a minute or so. Its really cool effect driving along the inner city roads at night and being lit up as you go. The columns are still the old ones, so it must be new heads been retrofitted with the new technology.

    Awesome video Sir Tom. When I heard you say Maccas it surprised me. That's used so often here in Aus that some of them have Maccas on the signage. Also good to see Aussie made Rode used by so many in UK

    As you say, very cool idea the wrapped solar panel.

  • @Theaveragenerd2000
    @Theaveragenerd2000 2 роки тому +8

    Reenterable refers to the fact that you can get back in the box, not the goo. Rather than filling the box with resin, and having an impenetrable box of plastic.

    • @Fanta....
      @Fanta.... 2 роки тому

  • @dragade101
    @dragade101 2 роки тому +5

    Love the idea of these LED street lamps that are gridless. I've seen what appears to be stand alone systems but a less sleek design. The only question is how northern can you place these in EU? Surely you need a minimum number of hours for overcast days but maybe these panels are exceptionally large for lamp's draw.

  • @DoctorElectricYouTube
    @DoctorElectricYouTube 2 роки тому +2

    What a brilliant "RCD fault", never seen that before!
    Have you seen the new BG outdoor sockets? Much better!!
    Re-enterable as you can go back into the Wiska box afterwards without it being too messy.
    Good video Tom

    Working in streetlighting I've always been intrigued by how those solar columns work. Do all the cables still drop down to the door and then back up to lantern or is everything wired at a higher level? Be great to see inside one next time you're there!

  • @JBE
    @JBE 2 роки тому +2

    Could it be that the Hager board wasn't designed to have an RCD as it's main switch, and that it's been retrofit to give blanket cover for all circuits?

  • @Jonas-sg8su

    I had covid a while ago and got that annoying cough as well. Took what felt like an eternity to get rid of. It had turned into an automatic reaction when the throat got annoyed by essentially anything, and was sore because I kept coughing. A downward spiral there. Cough syrup and forcing myself to not react on the need for a cough eventually helped it. Not easy, so best of luck getting rid of it.

    About the cough: I had the same thing. You get covid, you get better, lateral flow tests come up negative, but your throat is just still irritated and you keep coughing for ages afterward.

  • @davepusey
    @davepusey 2 роки тому +1

    The term "re-enterable" just means you can get back into the box again afterwards (not sealed shut), but yeah it's not "re-usable" so you need to mix new gel each time.

    Took 10 weeks for the cough to finally clear up. Weird.

    To be fair you probably don't need to hit the pole that hard to smash the bulb. I've seen a number of poles at places like festivals merely get shaken by people arnd stop working due to the light being damaged. I suspect it's mostly just amplification of th energy up the pole.
