We cover AC vs DC, single- vs three-phase, why 110 V is used on construction sites, and the protection devices that keep people safe. Plus, the key UK regs you must know to stay compliant.</p><p>What you’ll learn:</p><p><br></p><p>How power is generated and distributed (grid, transformers, 230 V/400 V star systems)</p><p>AC vs DC and why 110 V CTE is used on sites</p><p>Fuses, MCBs, RCDs, RCBOs and how ADS/disconnection times work</p><p>Earthing and earth loop impedance (Zs) in practice</p><p>The essential regs: BS 7671:2018+A2:2022, EAWR 1989, Part P, ESQCR 2002, CDM 2015, and key BS EN device standards</p><p><br></p><p>🎧 Listen to the audio podcast:</p><p> 👉 <a href=\"https://shows.acast.com/663884554e48ad001264210a/68bd42201af371182a4af644\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://shows.acast.com/663884554e48ad001264210a/68bd42201af371182a4af644</a></p><p>📺 Watch the video podcast on YouTube:</p><p> 👉 <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqbeXt0SVbA\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqbeXt0SVbA</a></p><p><br></p><p>🔗 Connect With Us:</p><ul><li>🎥 TikTok: @copperconnectionpodcast</li><li>📺 YouTube: @TheCopperConnectionpodca-sm8zx</li><li>🛠️ Store: <a href=\"https://thecopperconnectionpodcast.store/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://thecopperconnectionpodcast.store/</a></li></ul><p><br></p>","author_name":"Chris Bailey | Building Services Engineering Tutor"}
