Hi guys I'm currently revising the nptc schedules and as a novice in utility work could do with some help with identifying a few things such as the diffent voltages for overhead lines,

transformers

air break switches

aerial bundled conductors

Auto reclosers etc..

Iv found a few photos on the Internet but have no one to confirm I'm learning the right thing haha! If anyone could help with photos or links that would be great

Btw thanks for the help with schedule links on other thread

Cheers Griff

Hi guys I'm based in Ormskirk Lancashire looking into doing my utility arb tickets, found some places around Stafford an north Wales, was wondering wether anyone else had done there tickets anywhere closer? Or can recommend any training companies in the north west?

Any help would be great

Cheers Griff

Iv got a navaho and the sequoia and both are great. Only difference is the price and the fixed D on the Navaho. But to be honest I think I trust the cheeper one more as it doesn't have as many clips and screws to go wrong, just buckles. As long as u like a harness with just leg loops u can't go wrong with the petzl

cheers wisewood, yea the eyes are hard to do. sleeping owl is a good idea! have had problems with the wood cracking on some of them do u guys usually just leave the wood to season before carving? some wood seemed ok like hornbeam an syci but others cracked, proberbly need to leave it to dry out longer? cheers

Griff

Did these a few months ago, there all dotted around the garden. And made a fishing preist.

cheers guys took about a hour to carve. done a few more since out of better wood, an got a bit quicker. ill put them on now.
