To separate the loads, some protected by earth leakage and some only protected by over current to reduce nuisance tripping (split neutral busbars).
This is a practical demonstration that took place in a laboratory.

Note - If a stove circuit has a double pole isolator and no plug socket, no earth leakage is required. If the stove has the older type isolator with a socket next to the isolator, it "must" be fed from the earth leakage unit.

Hey! Could we please have a video on how to wire a multiple globe lamp or chandelier, but as if you were making a light for someone.

In inverter installation, if you take the geyser of the supply, it will then be 2 x earth leakages? One specific dedicated to the geyser? As some people say you don't have to feed the geyser through the earth leakage according to the stove you showed here, you have to be double pole MCB for the geyser then... So this would be incorrect?

im living in an island in a third world country where there is no electricians, these videos have been invaluable to wire up a hot water heater correctly. I have a question, If I would use earth leakage just for one circuit could is respective overload fuse be placed before or after the RCD or would it always come after ?

It's strange to see a requirement when inputs should always be at the top when almost all modern RCDs and circuit breakers work both from the top and the bottom. Having inputs at the top only causes more wires

At home the company which was installing eskom meter used same busbar for Earth cable and Neutral cable. After facing issues of metal appliances carring charge, we reported the issue to eskom and they come and cut out earth cable altogether. With Only Live and Neutral operating, does earth leakage breaker still gone work/ protect us for shock hazard if/when it happens?

Didn’t see you bonding your Neutral and Earth, or am I missing something?
@ramasike
@ramasike 11 ай бұрын
In South Africa the Neutral and earth bonding is done by the power company (Eskom) at their transformers or meter boxes. So the wires coming into the houses are to be used as they are.

@@ramasike Can you please share the evidence to support your statement. It does not make sense, because if that were true why would I need to install my own Earth pole/stick and create a isolated circuit for my own house? And wouldn't that mean if Eskom for example gave us all an Earth wire that we would share, in the event of an earth leakage multiple homes would not receive power because buildings share the same lines? I watched another video explaining when to bond Earth and Neutral. In this video it makes sense on why he didn't bond the neutral and Earth and that is because this is a sub panel or sub distributor board and is just a sort of extension of the already bonded Main panel/ Main Distributor for that building.

Technically these breakers can work both ways but certain countries have regulations about the input and output. In South Africa input is on top.
