Today we have one job to do for consumer. It was at Taman Permatang Kempas, where the overhead cable was sagging and almost fell down infront of their house. It is very dangerous if we let it be like that. We have to pull it back to the original place to prevent from something bad happened.

Firstly, one rope was tied to the sagging cable. One worker ( En. Azmi ) have to be up to tie the rope to the cable. After that, En. Asmawi and En. Shahrin pulled the rope to reduce sagging. After they pulled the rope and the cable was back at it original placed, En. Azmi change a new DEC ( dead end clamp ) for the cable.

As usual, morning roll call and briefing from En. Norakmal.. After, went to Setia Tropika to do paid work ( kerja-kerja yang dibayar ) to resite the five foot way and meter box because the owner extend the house, so have to resite the cables and meter box.

The first step is, we have to switch off the supply by pull out the fuse at black box. Second step is we have to take out the existing connection and also the meter box. The team will discussed about the new connection and where to place the meter.










































Third step is we placed the cable holder to the wall, placed the new cable on the cable holder ( one black box give supply to 3 unit houses, so the connection connect to 3 house)




























Forth step is we have to cut the cable based on measuring. The cable is cut into 4 pieces for three phase system. The existence connection will be marked with tape.

Next, the cable will be placed on the cable holder and clip was used to hold the cable at its place. After that, En. Shahrin join the existing cable connection with new connection using junction box. In this case, two junction box have been used since the house used three phase system.






























The junction box was used to do connection between cable and also to avoid the phase cable from touching each other ( the connection part) because if the connection part of different phase touching each other the system may collapse.

Today is my second week under SAVR team. Today we went again to Taman Munsyi Ibrahim. Our team have to extend a connection from main to the black box. It was done as a standby system if in case it is over load.

Cable ABC 3x195mm2 have been used for this system. For each cable, one to three, we have to mark the cable using tape referred to the phase of the system. the forth cable is neutral cable. For neutral cable, the diameter is smaller than other cable. The numbering is done to make sure the connection is correct after we cut out the cable. Each cable have their owned number but the number is too small. Thats why, we have to mark it with tape to make things easier for connection purposes. We have to connect the cable correctly to prevent electrical component for house or system that used three phase system from damaged. If it is connect not in order, the electrical equipment such as air conditioner ( or anything that run by motor ) will easily damaged because the motor will rotate anti-clockwise and cause heat. From time to time, the equipment will blow.
