    Upgrade of house main fuse

    I am qualified to pull the fuse and it was done under no load so totally safe! The point I was making was not for the upgrade but to have your connections checked. They might be fine but when you put more load onto your system if the connection is not tight then what happened to me will happen.

    Upgrade of house main fuse

    If you are adding load get your cutout upgraded. I am an electrical engineer and I fitted a podpoint with the CT to limit the current as my cutout was fused at 60A. I charged my car approx. 8pm and I went in the garage where the mcb board is and could smell burning. I went to the cutout and the...

    New 7kw Charger 'installed'

    Have you got an earth rod installed as the 7kw units usually have O pen which does not require an earth rod and is your socket RCD protected?

    Caught this EVSE wiring issue just in time!

    Like johnB80 stated ant good electrician would never have an external cable or conduit in the top of an external junction box. The stuffing gland and the connectors for the flexible conduit don't look as if they are IP rated for external installations. I would seriously look at getting a decent...

    Just seen this, interesting for those who want extra storage rather than towing or a roof box. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/cars/news/thule-s-new-car-storage-box-can-actually-improve-your-ev-s-range/ar-AA19sjsp?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=U531&cvid=7521fdd5cf56480c8b716ec5e9737c4c&ei=42

    Consumer Unit Rating

    As an experienced time served electrician please tell your electrician he is a dick and to go back to school. Your meter is most probably rated to a 100A so by putting a 200A fuse in a most probably rated 100A cutout is a major fire hazard.
