Hi all, just thought i'd pop in and introduce myself, names Brian and am a qualified spark, been with my current employer now for for about 14 months and have recently been upgraded to full trade. We do all manner of work CCTV, access control, gate automation, intercom systems & alarm systems not to mention commercial electrics. Been on a bit of a learning curve with all this low voltage stuff tho' , but been enjoying it and still am (i think!)

Anyway looking forward to participating in the forum and hopefully picking up some tips from you guys, and also hopefully passing some on myself.

Hi Brian

Welcome to our merry group.

I use to live in Quedgeley before moving to Weston-s-Mare 4 years ago.

From your description I would have a stab in the dark and say you either work for Coopers or Clarkson?

Always useful to have a qualified Spark in the Group as there are always topics concerning mains electricity.

Hello Brian.

Welcome to the forums Brian

Meaning...

You are called Dave Phelps, so you are a member of the Phelps family... and he is called Brian Phelps, so he is a member of a family also called Phelps..... and as one of you is in Gloucestershire and one of you is in Weston Sloping Mare (No, that wasn't a typo.... I have been there )..... that puts the 2 of you in fairly close proximity..... and you have the same surname ..... and you are both in the same profession...... and you have both found your way on here.....

I didn't know he was from the elite Phelps family. How did you find that out?
