    Update on new AW10BSB2 tablesaw

    You don't need an earth fault for a fault current to flow - a short from live to neutral will do - which is what occurs at startup on the motor - very briefly though. If you are close to the sub this can be much greater than if your further away! So the same motor that may pop a 13A fuse in one...

    Update on new AW10BSB2 tablesaw

    Sometimes it depends on your fault level current! If you're close to your substation - your fault level current can be quite high. A stopped (or stalled) motor is effectively a short circuit - fault current flows for a very short time. This can trip the mcb or melt a fuse whilst the motor...

    Parana Pine

These are intended for speed control of three phase motors but can be used for what you want. Fixed speed at 50Hz. I've fitted one to my sedgwick morticer. If its dual...

    Kiln Dried Oak supplier - Yorkshire

    Gents, Could someone with more experience than I cast an eye on this ebayer and give an opinion? His oak seems inexpensive, and whilst it is kd, it does mean that my mistakes (of which there are many) are not as expensive as they might be! Hows that for a positive spin? Anything I should look...
