@nprofile1q... I'm almost afraid to ask, but.. it's legal to have the earth wire of lesser capacity than the phase wire?!

@nprofile1q... I don't get why UK fuse boards are still the same tiny boxes they were in the 1950s.. but it seems BSI/IET doesn't want to modernise anything in that regard. Especially adding anything "smart" inevitably means adding external boxes around it. I follow a few UK electricians on YT, and always cringe when I see these wooden boards with assorted boxes and wires bolted onto them..

The outgoing cable looks tiny for a 40A circuit.. what does BS specify for that? I assume 3x6mm²?

@nprofile1q... I'm still trying to figure out what cable has which purpose in this.. construction. No matter what variant I try, it's either too many or too few lines. And why does this thing exist at all.. fuses belong in the central fuse board, not next to the charger..

@nprofile1q... Also hier ist die Innenstadt seit sie Fussgängerzone ist, beständig am Absterben, jedes Jahr stehen mehr Läden leer, der Umsatz wandert ab in die umliegenden Strassen mit Parkmöglichkeiten - weil die Leute keinen Bock haben, ihren Wocheneinkauf sonstwieweit rumzutragen. Und mit dem elften Schmuck- oder Parfümladen nebeneinander und ähnlichen Handtaschen-Artikeln macht man nicht genug Umsatz zum Überleben in den jetzt hochpreisig gewordenen Immobilien "mit Laufkundschaft".

@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... that's the whole thing.. about 6x6x3".. the tape clamp has a Siemens-Halske logo on it

@nprofile1q... that's Brown, Boveri & Cie (merged with ASEA in 1996 into the ABB electronics corp we know nowadays).

@nprofile1q... none of them are wearing antistatic pawbands.. you should really train your IT staff better. =^.^=

@nprofile1q... Ähnlich wie beim Berliner Flughafen wäre es mittlerweile vermutlich billiger, Stuttgart neben einen funktionierenden Bahnhof zu verlegen.

@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... Once they kick up the prices to at least stop losing money, all the companies that replaced workers with AI will realize that AI is significantly more expensive than those workers were. I wonder how many CEOs will have the integrity to admit AI was a bad decision.

@nprofile1q... Und darum hängt man nicht seine gesamte Existenz an die Dienste eines einzelnen Anbieters, erst recht nicht wenn der in einem höchst instabilen Land wie den USA sitzt.

@nprofile1q... I love how the cooling fan in my SolarEdge inverter sounds like an old Diesel for about a minute when it's trying to start.. I can only assume they've simply wired it in series with an NTC, so that the voltage rises too slowly to overcome inertia.
