hey I would like to get some input on how different contractors figure time for panel trimout/makeup.
how long do you expect it to take someone to make up a panel (assuming it is full)
does quality matter very much, or do you just want it done?
and the burning question behind this post:
how long would you allow for these panels posted as pics?
IZAK, nice wiring... you should be proud.
I try to leave my panels clean, labeled and impressively neat. I want the next electrician who may wonder in my panels to understand my work visually and by a wiring schematic.
Almost anyone can wire a panel that works, I sell panels that re-assure the customer that he gets what he paid for.
The following is a presentation for a client of a panel being prepared for the client's Parisien loft appartment:
http://www.r2eg.com/Downloads_R2EG_Public/A-Z-20070510.ppt
It is a French 230v 50Hz TT single phase panel with 500mA differentialed 2P main breaker, 2x 63A contacters/relays, 3x 30mA Differential-Switches, and 4x 30mA breakers. In addition, there are 3 technical alarms, one of which is 2 stage for circuit failure and flooding. All breakers are 2P (Phase + Neutral) as required by the French electric code (NFC15-100) for single phase installations.
The inner panel cabling is flexible wire and all external cabling is solid core 1.5mm?, 2.5mm? and 6mm?.
The panel was later hooked_up to automated/electronic gas & electric meter reading.
