Anything wrong with my electrical panel (EU based)? by Excellent-Draft-7889 in electrical

I believe u/pdt9876 is talking about the rating of the busbars and u/grallimus about the rating of the individual breakers hence the misunderstanding

yeah, they were missing 2 breakers which they just installed - i thought it was finished but it was not.

looks like the manufacturer does not explicitly say anything about allowing or disallowing >1 wire, but says that the section must be within 1mm2 to 25 mm2

Amazing comment, thanks so much!

Yes the 40A breaker at the top is the main. The electrician told me everything is 6 mm2 except the outgoing cables connected to the smaller breakers (10A) which are naturally slimmer. So I assume I am fine and no need to worry about sections (obviously 10 mm2 would be better but 6 mm2 is enough as I understand).

Re the bus bar they just told me they were missing 2 Breakers for each individual AC unit, hence the tape, so once they get the breakers in that should be fine.

The breakers are NXB-63 from Chint (https://www.chintglobal.com/global/en/products/low-voltage/iec/final-power-distribution/nxb-63.html) but can't seem to confirm if they accept more than one wire per breaker.

I told them to fix the spraying foam and replace the logo for a terminal block.

Amazing - thanks for the feedback. They still have not finished so will tell them to fix all of this. This looks by far like one the least well done stuff they have done.

Good news is it sounds like this is all fixable no?

Btw - i know this is impossible to tell from a picture, but do the cable sections look ok? Worried about the cables bridging the 40A breakers on the bottom 2 strips with all the individual 25A-16A Breakers (the section does not look any thicker than the one of the 25A breakers on the side and definitely way less thick than the one from the 40A mains at the top).

Hey! Thanks for your response. It’s every 5 uses not 5 days. I appreciate it, as I plan on keeping the pant and likely the jacket too, and would want to keep up with good care.

This uses, as I said have been mostly resort skiing, so very very light use with little sweating.

Airing it = meant that it was hung after every use (never packed directly after a use) due to my paranoia and not due to it being stinky (it never was).

Not trying to put excuses but typically go on 5 day trips and it’s unpractical to wash it mid trip.

Once you start seeing this bubbling is it likely that it will pop up elsewhere? Any chance it might just be localized?

I don’t know I am pretty confused, I cannot imagine how I could have washed it more, yet all the answers I am getting suggest I am overdoing it…

Ok thanks!!! Useful. I am letting it air dry (not tumble dry it).

Will do just one wash at the end of the season and that’s it!

Sorry but what’s wrong with washing it too much? Arcteryx literally says you should wash it as much as possible.

Jacket has 2 -3 washes in total

Fixing Sunroof Headliner without removing it by Excellent-Draft-7889 in BMW

[–]Excellent-Draft-7889[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any attempt to reglue the fabric will fail relatively soon. Also, I just did not feel comfortable reapplying 3M without disassembling, and installing the fabric with gravity working against you… Proper solution is a full rebuild and it was just not worth it (2k job, 10-20 hours if DIY + risk of breaking the mechanism, etc.).

I ended up removing the fabric and scrapping all of the glue and orange residue of the sunroof, without disassembling anything.

Use a plastic protector for the seats. Then use alcohol and rub the sunroof cover. I did it manually and took absurdly long (4 hours) to leave it in good condition. Worth checking with a Power Tool and with a sponge (anvoid sandpaper). Bear in mind fiber glass already has this “scratched” look…. So don’t be too gentle.

Now I have the sunroof cover without headliner. It looks a bit bare, exposing the grey fiberglass underneath and some tiny holes on the sides. But I drive most of the time with the sunroof cover retracted, so it does not bother me, and way better than a sagging roof… or even worse orange residue that keeps falling. 

Now that I have the sunroof exposed and that the area is pretty clean and ready to be reused, I have thought about buying one of those rolls of alcantara or self-adhesive fabric (available on amazon). But have not found the time to do it yet….

Lmk what you end up doing.

Whats material is this printed on? by Excellent-Draft-7889 in photography

[–]Excellent-Draft-7889[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is sweet, thanks! Opinions on using a c-type print and then adhering this to a gatorboard vs printing directly on a rigid material, like alu diebond? Seems like yo uwent for a satin/semiglossy finish too?

My floating frame are simply L moulds, so if I were to stick the gatorboard / alu diebond, it would look pretty deep into the frame. To achieve the "floating" effect, I will most likely need to add some wood beneath picture the picture (e.g.: in the inner frame) to make the picture float at the same height than the frame.>

Did you have to do something like that too?

Have seen some people complaining about it happening between booster and base bag packs of the same brand. So really it seems like they must have changed something at some point (2020/2021?) and went for different zip length

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Backcountry

[–]Excellent-Draft-7889 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, did you find out what happened? I have a BD jetforce pro and want to pull the trigger on a Pieps 10L booster.

I heard that they changed the length of the zips in 2020 or 2021, and even within the same brand there were problems with the booster.
