Imported EV's

Hi All, Just wanting some advice regarding this IC-CPD I recently came across. This came supplied with the vehicle. It has a rating of 100v/200v, 12A. According to the guidelines this would not be acceptable as it's required to be labelled by the manufacturer as being compatible with a 230v 50Hz sup...

Re: Heat pump , max demand calc

Thanks Jamie,
No issue with the table, I'm more after what amperage to use from the heat pump specifications. Eg, A heat pump im looking at has both 'rated amps(17.5A)' and 'max amps(30A)' in their specs. Should we be basing the demand calcs on the 17.5 or 30A figure?

Re: Max demand Table C1

Thanks Aleck, I thought that was how I read it, but it just didn't seem right to me, so started to doubt myself. I have looked at a few jobs lately where there is over 10kw of fixed space heaters getting installed, yet because each individual heater is less than 10A, they are calculated as just anot...

Max demand Table C1

Hi All, Just trying to get my head around the wording in Table C1, load group D, in regards to space heating and working out the MD for the entire installation. Load group B(i) is for socket outlets not exceeding 10A and permanently connected electrical equipment not exceeding 10A and not included i...
