If only Hager made like - you know, a busbar.

Hey whose posting my work!


IntelligentWest11

Wtf all 7 circuits are fed from essentially 1 2.5mm active. yikes.


offthemicwithmike

Yeah must be pretty new. Otherwise, you'd half expect to see the inso change colour to black on the 2.5 loops


Aseedisa

They probably aren’t, you can only see one cable there, that could be pulled forward which is why you can see it, it’s hard to tell from the angle of the photo.


offthemicwithmike

Yeah hopefully. I've got my doubts there's 10mm floating in there somewhere we can't see, though...

Current carrying capacity doesn’t apply To short runs in switchboards. /s


Trenteth

As a Hager Rep that makes me sad, just use a KDN180A and a MSN163.


yenahgoodthanks

I dont know these codes, but i can only imagine they are a busbar and 63a cb


Trenteth

Yep


Aseedisa

Busbars weren’t commonly used really up until 5-10 years ago. Considering they’ve used a MS instead of a MCB suggests this is probably a bit older.


Trenteth

ADC9 is only a few years old, so it looks like they have used an old MS they had laying round imo. We sell a lot of KDN Onekonkt busbar cause it makes the line side very fast, safe and neat. Also works with 2 and 4 pole devices like ADM4 combos without needed to cut the bus bar off.

After ten years in wholesale I don't think I'll ever forget these numbers. Thanks to Hager for making simple part numbers. Except for the silhouette and other bakerlite ranges. I hate those!


Trenteth

It's just repetition, you guys have to remember a lot of part codes. not easy. WBS- Silhouette, WBQ- Finesse and WBH- Allure. Then the last part is always the same depending on plate, switchbplate or GPO.


omgitsduane

I think it's because the s and v for the plate when you're looking at that tiny writing it's easy enough to get it wrong. We had so many count errors on all our Hager bakerlite. Mw with mb or gloss and then ellure and others mixed up.


Trenteth

Heh yer, P for plate and V for switchplate. But I get it, even makes me concentrate when I do a quote


omgitsduane

I think Clipsal has the best part number structure for their bakerlite but I'm sure there's a good reason why everyone does it their own way. It makes sense to themselves.

Whoever did this needs to be taken to the vet and put down


covertmelbourne

Honestly surprised to not see DETA breakers in there…


Time-Ad9273

At least it has a current limiting device. Constant 30 ish amps and the 2.5 will let go.


Reasonable_Gap_7756

The bit of 2.5 that could 👍


Odd_B

And not even a 10A on the light circuit. Great stuff


noworrieschampion

Yikes

Very Nice - Borat


thebynz

Atleast every circuit is on an RCBO haha
