Also forgot to say, your protective device supplying this DB doesn’t want to be over 40 Amps as that is the limit of the main RCD.

Sorry you are struggling with getting an electrician. I have moved on, I just design the stuff now, I don’t fit anything. We might as well get used to it as the trade is going more and more self-employed and this doesn’t help with getting apprentices or training youngsters, not that many of them want this kind of job. A real shame. The whole of the construction industry is worryingly floored, and I think this discourages getting youngsters involved in the industry.

Rant over £300000 a week for that Man City player. No wonder everyone wants to be a professional footballer not an electrician

The motor trade is sadly going the same way- autonomous vehicles that only 1% of the mechanics in the world can fix, no one that stays past the 2 year mark or finishes up after you invest the time and money into them only to head overseas for more money and a better lifestyle. Most dealers now as well send you off to get factory trained and keep the knowledge inside. Or 3 years and no way to ever move up and you get squeezed and squeezed on time by the bosses to
make more money, because it’s all warranty work paid at a reduced rate, then have to buy all you own tools and Diagnostics gear at a cost of 25k minium- which the top money you’ll ever earn working for someone is 28k not to mention beating your body, poisoning your lungs only for the customer to tell you “ they saw on YouTube or read on the internet”

I’ve been waiting now on four different guys 22 weeks! And I’m fairness to them they seem to be working 12-14 hours a day 6 days a week, because there’s too much work
and not enough of them!
