Installation Rules-past papers.

[cvmostert]

Hi there, has anyone worked out the question 1 of paper 2 November 2009?

The figure is as follows:

(db-220V DC) ----10mCable----(C1-50A)----9mCable----(C2-40A)----8mCable----(C3-30A)----7mCable----(C4-20A)

If this is not understood i can draw and post also.

The questions are:
1. use the figure and calculate the minimum cable size
2. calculate the voltage drops between the distribution board and the circuits c1 to c3 in each case
3. prove that the same copper cable was used.

Tables available: E.1 and 6.4(b)

I was using the VD = 2 x I x (resistivity x L)/A equation

Let me know your thoughts, Thanks!

At least one of the documents you're looking for is available from wwwdotscribddotcom. I'm not going to go into any more detail in case Dave gets extradited to the US under the new piracy laws..

Just say, Loyiso is sorted on the documents. ;-)

Hi Guys what are you thoughts of having the installation rules exams becoming open book rather than learning parrot fashion style for a couple of weeks then forgetting it after the exam. This is what I am seeing out there. The installation electricians are passing the exams but not applying what they have learnt. My idea behind the open book exam is rather to apply the knowledge.The exams are also far too easy to pass nowaday since the questions are just reapeated from past exams...NO new questions have been formulated...

Somebody just uploaded to Demonoid as a torrent the 10142 regs plus the specialised installation codes plus ammendments and they even threw in the UK regs and guidance notes for good measure. Must be your lucky day Mike.

You shouldn't need to register to get access to the torrents. If you can't come right let me know and I'll email you the torrent file so you can download it.
