Paul, djk,
I agree whole-heartedly with all of your comments.
We started to tear the elderly panel out of this school, today(Saturday).
I tried to find the Mains fuses for the Installation, but found that there were only the Primary DDO fuses and these were over-tapped back into the feeding Lines, so dropping these out would have de-energised the whole street, I rang the Network Operator(my Lines boss) and he gave me a Clearance to do so and fix the whole thing up.
I started at 0600 this morning, looking to be finished(the S/B) about 1200, I finished as far as I could go and put the power back on to the street at 1900 tonight, I still have to go back in tomorrow to replace the darned panel.
At this stage of the game I'm not very happy, I could have done w/out all this, what makes it worse, it's eating into my already short weekend, as it is.
The sooner this job is finished, the better, I reckon!. [Linked Image]
