Safe Disconnection to Undertake Work.

Zoomup
Scene. An old farm building now used as a double glazing frame maker's workshop.


The supply comes from an old shed about 40 metres away, where the meter is. The old shed has some 70s/80s rusty M.E.M. isolators that feed several S.W.A. cables that exist the shed in many directions underground. I suspect that one feeds the main farmhouse, another a rented cottage and the others various farm buildings. There is no clear labelling of the isolators.


What is the best way to locate the frame maker's  building supply where I have to work?


Somewhere I have a circuit i/d set, if I can find it, but that will need access to the live parts and I do not wish to turn off the wrong isolator.


Z.

    I kept all of my original hair. No shocks or explosions occurred.


    You and BOD are getting very unruly. ?


    What I want to know is whether the motors will go round and round in the correct direction. ?




    The word is 'are getting' emotionally close.....

    I have a solution to Zoom's dilemma, I've been chatting with one of his relative's,  Zoom, and it was suggested that he should use a electronic tracker, as Andy suggested. The one we use has no torrid coil detector so has to be hard wired in series. We once used it to good effect, followed a very interesting cable route and a couple of buried JBs. The tracking instrument is french at a frequency of 25kHz, but works perfectly well on UK electrical circuits. It does help if you can understand French instructions.....
