Regulation attached...lets see if anyone can tell me why this regulation was added and when it is applicable. People need to start paying attention to why the regulation is added.
Shall I give you a clue or should we ask which circuit breaker dominated the market, and controlled the regulations, we can then go into why we wire DB's upside down.
If you understand how busbars fit on good quality din mount circuit breakers, you will understand why this brand has created a problem so huge, that even if they realized the way we do it is incorrect it would take years to convert to the correct way. A clue try fit a forked busbars, which by the way is designed to onto a din mount circuit breaker in such a way that it doesn't interfere with the wires added to the terminals. This by the way should be a regulations consider the amount of burnt terminals we find on sites, especially factory environments.
There is so much more to terminating wires in circuit breakers, but why waste time on shyte like that, we cant even get things like silly plugs right, imagine trying to tell people about important stuff like how a cable should be terminated.
I am at a point where I read posts on social media making me realize how bad this industry has got. The only reason I still waste time on this platform, is because I can see the stuff shared on this forum does filter out into the industry.
6.1.12 Where flexible cords are used, the strands of the conductors shall be mechanically protected with ferrules to prevent the strands from being cut off in terminations.
