Muy Facile , Utilice el babelfish en sitio http://babelfish.altavista.com/tr

Use babelfish, which is reasonable and then use intelligent logic to work out the bits that dont stack up in english

I was quoting from the RBT Texto oficial 18/9/2002 these have been the regulations for almost four years now.
Of course you may put less on breakers if you prefer, but that means more breakers and more circuits. Every five circuits must be protected by an RCD,or
in Spanish, un interruptor diferencial.
This would obviously make an installation more expensive if unneccessary
extra circuits were installed.

I am looking for a handyman to do the light fitting and some other little jobs in my new house near Rincon de la Victoria. Can anyone help?

Some recent changes are that cables leading to the meter must now be 50mm section and all installations must be protected by a transient voltage surge suppressor otherwise Sevillana/Endesa will not pay out in the event of damage caused by a power surge. (Not that they do anyway)
