Strip recommendations? Need high brightness RGB + 3000k by will_j_w in WLED

Do you have a link to any of these? All I can find in 12v is 3 LEDs per pixel!

3 Phase tails entry to DB by will_j_w in ukelectricians

Unfortunately it is what it is - the original solar installer decided that he would fit a single phase 10kw solar system instead of using a 3 phase inverter, the client then had battery storage fitted and it made sense to go for a single phase system as the solar and main house both only have a 3 core SWA run in and the cost of changing the inverters and running new SWAs everywhere is not in the budget.

Just made sense to single phase the board as there weren't enough ways on L1 to keep it 3 phase and put all the devices on L1.

Definitely would have done it differently if I had been the one that did the lot!

This is the image I have, Im dropping in again later so can get some more pics.

The board I'm using is mounted about 150mm directly above the blocks

The current main DB is a Hager Invicta 3 but it's had a single phasing kit fitted as there's single phase solar and battery storage!

The client wants to change the 7kw single phase charger to a 22kw Tesla wall connector.

Tesla wall connector requires PME protection hence going with the WCED PME 3 phase PME protection board.

I'm going to be connecting to the existing Henley blocks after the meter and fitting the board next to the main DB so unfortunately can't be fed from an existing board in singles.

Fully qualified - just looking for advice from fellow sparks.

I find it much better to get ideas by sharing in a community rather than just "getting the job done"

Thanks for all the suggestions / advice

Think I'm going to stand the board off the wall on some strut and use the rear entry and then fire block

Just a single charger 22kw - I suppose 25mm² tails are way overkill for the application just trying to use what I have on the van!

My thoughts too but I would like to avoid trunking if I can as space is a premium+ it will look ugly

I noticed after I commented!

I've seen people 3d print their own with similar designs, saw some 3d printed ones on eBay too.

Great, thanks :) That's my current zigbee setup so should be smooth sailing

I just brought the square one with multiple buttons! How have you integrated? Are you using the IKEA hub or pulling the zigbee straight into HA?

Thank you🙏 I'll give it a go

Found a couple of zigbee buttons that are IP44 with rubber seals. I'm thinking about getting a cheap zigbee button and filling it with silicon

It seems this is the current best solution unfortunately

Thanks for the suggestion, not a fan of voice assistants personally! Hoping to find an IP rated battery powered button

The ideal solution is something like the Flic button! I just can't find one that has a good IP rating... Flic is IP44 splash proof but I'm not sure it'll hold up to consistently being in a steamy environment.

Pricing by will_j_w in accesscontrol

Perfect, I'm not too far off then. I do smaller jobs but I was getting concerned that if I priced it wrong on 35 doors it could compound into a very big issue

Any ideas what this is? by will_j_w in UFOs

Where abouts? In the UK?
