Thanks for accepting me into your group. I've been in the electrical controls world since the mid 1980's, traveling all over the place for everything from corner shops and small flats, to huge theatres and blue chip companies. I'm as comfortable deploying massive generators and back syncing them to the national grid as I am installing and commissioning audio, video and telecoms systems. "It's all just wires and logic" Since 2012, I've been the UK face of www.velbus.eu Providing design services, training and support to installers and end customers, for projects from small flats in Italy to hotels and huge mansions in the UK. For the last 3 years, I have been working more with colleges to deliver training to electrical and plumbing students in order for them to clear away the myths and misconceptions about digital controls. Basically, I'm bored of people thinking that good quality controls are - Complex - Expensive - Unreliable - "only for the rich and famous" 1600+ students have had hands on time with Velbus kit, to prove to themselves that they ARE perfectly capable of designing and deploying fully wired digital kit. The reason I join groups like this is to extend access to the information as far as possible, without asking for massive fees or stupid annual payments. In a nutshell Good quality digital kit should be easy to use, easy to understand and easy to deploy. What a customer chooses to do with it after you have signed it off.. should be totally up to them... which can include paying you to do more with it... 😉 Please feel free to ask me anything. The more you know, the better outcomes you can give you customers. And yes, I make money when you sell the kit, but if you aren't selling it and making money yourself... neither are we.

Out of curiosity:what’s the one technical issue or standards point you keep running into lately that never seems to have a clean answer on site or online? Not looking for opinions — I’m interested in the actual problems you’re seeing.

What shall one do if you get to site the initial is available but upon doing your work and you need to issue supp, you test and the values out of range and does not corrospond with initial C.o.C?
