    Yep Sorry my Hiccup had in to Change The shaft Bearing The Customer Had Put A new belt On last Week I Was Trying To put The belt back In The same Configuration As The Customer put Been Fiddling For a While.
    Then realized he had put The belt On The wrong way On The roller That’s Why The bearing Shaft Broke He Must have used Some Force

    Then Silly Me Released Place The Belt On The pulley And Roll The Drum on

    Re: Pat test failed,What mega reading do i need

    Hi Simonb Its Funny You Should Pull Me On This That’s The only bit That i Left Out I didnt Want To confuse Anyone On That Bit Your On about.

    All I will say hear that you May get a Fail With The Leakage Test Or a Pass Depending On The appliance New Or Old. Iv Unbaged Brand New Ones And They Have Failed The Leak test

    but it has To pass The First 2 Tests.
    RPE====== Ohms
    RISO===== M Ohms
    LEAK===== m A
    You Are On The Correct Track.

    This Is Only A Guide And I would Prefer Anyone Who Is reading This Thread And has Limited Knowledge To Take A Course.
    Its very Easy And Cheap Enough and It Will give Them A Sense Of Confidence Out There The Work Place.

    Procedure & guide Pat Testing

    Classes Of Appliances

    Class 1 Earthed Appliances = No symbol
    Class 2 Double Insulated = ➡ ( http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=h … m=1&itbs=1 )

    Visual Inspections

    1 Check For Signs Of Cracks,damage or Heating
    2 Ensure plug Pins are Insulated
    3 check Plug is Correctly Terminated
    4 Check connections are tight
    5 Ensure correct fuse size And that fuse carries Asta symbol :arrow:( http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=h … m=1&itbs=1 )
    6Check cable Anchorage is secure

    Fuse Sizes

    1 . IT Equipment = 3 Or 5 Amp
    2 . Motor Powered equipment = 10 Amp
    3 . Heating equipment = 13 Amp

    CABLES

    1 No connector Blocks or Joins
    2 No Lumps hard or soft Spots
    3 No damage to insulation or cuts to cable

    Appliances

    1 No Missing Screws; or cracks or damage to Appliance casing
    2 no signs of Overheating
    3 On/off switch Operates correctly
    4 No excessive contamination to the casing

    Extension leads
    Extension Leads Must be Fitted with A Minimum Of 1.25mm cable and Fitted with an earth cable.


    If Any of The 1st Procedure Above Have Failed There Is No need To carry on With The Other Tests Either put A Failed Sticker On IT Or Record the Information In A Log Or Carry Out A Safe Repair.

    Electrical Tests required

    1 Earth bond Test
    2 insulation Test
    3 Polarity Test
    4 IEC cables To be LABELLED and Tested SEPARATELY

    EARTH BOND TESTS

    ONLY APPLICABLE FOR CLASS 1 APPLIANCES AND 3 CORE LEADS
    ATTACH EARTH BOND CLIP TO APPLIANCE CHASSIS

    MAXIMUM READING
    0.1 Ohms+CABLE RESISTANCE (REFER To Cable resistance Table)
    Earth Bond test Currents

    IT = Equipment = 100 0r 200 MA
    OR
    ALL Other Class 1 appliances
    Up to 1.5Times The rating of The Fuse or A maximum Of 25 Amps.

    [b] Cable Resistance

    Cable csa(mm)………….. ohms Per Metre

    0.5mm =====================0.390 0hms
    0.75mm=====================0.0260 Ohms
    1.0mm======================0.0195 Ohms
    1.25mm=====================0.0156 Ohms
    1.5mm======================0.0133 Ohms
    2.5mm======================0.008 Ohms
    4mm========================0.005 Ohms
    Examples
    A 15m extension cable reel with A cable size of 1.5mm would have an earth bond pass mark of 0.1995 Ohms =( 1.5m x 0.0133 Ohms )

    an appliance fitted with a 7meter 1mm cable would have an earth bond pass mark of = 0.2365 Ohms = (0.1+(7m x0.0195 Ohms

    Insulation and Leakage Tests
    The Insulation And leakage test below are Applicable to all types Of appliances.

    if appliance is IT/ The electronic Insulation Test can be Substituted for the leakage test.

    When testing Class 2 appliances ensure earth Bond Clip Is In contact with the appliance.

    Ensure appliance switches are in the on position where possible.

    Insulation Test

    Minimum Allowable Insulation Test

    Class 1 Heating Appliances = 3kw = 0.3 M Ohms

    Other class 1 Appliances = 1 M Ohms

    Other Class 2 Appliances = 2 M Ohms

    Leakage Tests WARNING POWER ON TEST ENSURE THAT THE APPLIANCE IS IN A SAFE STATE

    MAXIMUM LEAKAGE VALUES

    Portable or hand held Class1======= 0.3m Ohms

    class 1 heating appliances========= 0.75mA or 0.75mA Per KW.max 5mA.

    Other Class 1 appliances ================== 3.5mA

    Class 2======================================0.25mA

    I would Advise Anyone with Limited Knowledge Reading This Thread To go and do a course.
    There May be 1 at your local Tech College twice a year That Could Cost you Around £500.00 or there Are Some Courses Which You May have To Travel And They Are Usually Expensive Plus You will Need Board And Loge For About Theree Days

    Or Do one Online With no Pressure ➡ http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&source … GnNuTtJSIg

    Happy and safe Testing garn… 🙂
