Q & A of the Day - How to carry out final connection to this congested earth bar?
Question: I'm after some practical advice here. A customer is having a protective multiple earth (PME) installed and wants me to carry out the final connection to the fuse box.

The problem is that a 16mm earth cable will not fit in the (already full) earth busbar, and he doesn't want to replace the fuse box. Do you have any ideas?

Answer: You will need to get an additional earth terminal connected to the existing earth bus bar to take the 16mm earth cable.
