In this video we look at a lighting circuit using the 2 plate method and I explain the connections within a one gang 1 way switch. The 2 plate method takes the feed (supply) to the switch and is often used in installation that have lots of downlights fitted (LED) because it reduces the number of cables at the lighting points.. 🔔 Subscribe for more free electrical training videos ruclips.net/use...

      Do you have a legal reason to remove the lock? Is your reason better than Health and Safety at Work etc Act Or The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 reg 29 is important Or Electricity Safety, Quality and Continuity Regulations (ESQCR) have a read of Domestic fatalities attributed to electrical equipment eg a fatality due to a person rewiring their house or with an appliance that has not been isolated from the supply must be reported to BIS. Other examples include electrocution including intentional acts, or form fires and explosions arising from or alleged to have arisen from a fault on the customer's equipment or wiring. Dutyholders are only expected to report such incidents where they have knowledge of the occurrence of the event or the facts of the event. Another section to reference Events that lead to the death or injury to an employee of a dutyholder covered by these Regulations should be reported to HSE under RIDDOR only. Deaths and injuries to members of the public that are attributable in whole or in part to the generating, transforming, control or carrying of energy up to and including the supply terminals are reportable by dutyholders to HSE. Examples of events that must be reported under this regulation include those resulting in the death of or injury to someone who is not an employee of the generator, distributor or meter operator and are: caused directly or indirectly by contact, whether accidental or deliberate, with live electrical conductors eg a member of the public receives electric shock or fatal injuries when a raised part of the plant they are operating makes contact with an overhead line caused directly or indirectly by or resulting from the release, discharge or escape of flame, arc, arc products, gas or energy from electrical conductors or plant, eg a member of the public receives burns after energy is released above ground following the failure of an underground link box or pit caused by impact or contact with a support (eg a tower or pole) or a building or structure, eg a road traffic accident in which the occupants of the vehicle suffer fatal injuries when their vehicle collides with a pole caused by falling, deliberately or accidentally, from a support, building or structure, or, into an excavation caused by the failure or collapse of any non-electrical part of the dutyholders operational electricity supply system or works - eg the collapse of a substation wall, cable trench or substation fencing, tower or wind turbine that occur on domestic, commercial or industrial installations as a direct result of an event of a dutyholder. Events such as these shall be reported by the dutyholder responsible for equipment directly involved in the event. eg A member of the public receives an electric shock from a domestic wiring installation which has become live as a direct result of the loss of a neutral connection on a distributor's system, or a member of the public dies as a result of a fire originated by the distributor's service cut-out.

    • @andysims4906

      It would be negligible. Accidentally scoring the copper can make it weaker if it’s a deep mark . It’s not found much these days thank goodness,but accidentally scoring or marking copper clad cable made it very weak and wood easy snap .
