Assignment :11/06/2009

Wednesday morning I completed the given assignment based on the fundamentals.Later on before 12am i submitted it to Heidi our facilitator while doing research about our next activity.

Wiring

On the 10th of June 2009 I wired a sub DB and installed a fluorescent light together with an ordinary bio net fitting.Further more we continued to connect the double plugs.later on we connected the supply to our sub DB supplied from a transformer over a distance of approximately 1km.Since it was a long distance,we did some test (we plugged a grinder) to ensure that there was no drop in voltage and we were very fortunate because there was a slide volt drop (From 228v to 224v).Our mission was accomplished due to our great ideas.
