In the UK what cable should you use for a domestic ring main?
The cable usually used is 2.5mm2 three core (live, neutral and earth). In circumstances where the cable runs are long or derating is required due to temperature 4mm2 is used. The ring main is usually protected by a 32A circuit breaker. In older installations a 30A fuse was used.
What is the household AC electrical power mains voltage in the UK?
Like in whole Europe in the UK it is 230 Volts, AC 50 Hz. This is allowed to vary from a lower limit of 216.2 Volts up to an upper limit of 253 Volts.For more information see the answer to the Related Question shown below. In the world we have mostly 220 to 240 volts 50 Hz (blue) or 108 to 132 volts 60 Hz (red). Scroll down to Related Links and look at "Worldmap for AC Voltage and Frequency - Wikipedia".
Where does the UK gets its energy from?
wind turbines,coal,etc
What percent of the UK's power comes from wind?
This question is a bit of a tough one to answer, but varies from a range of variables. One of the main ones would have to be certain days give different percentage. Seasons is also one of the big factors to determining the percentage of Uk's wind power. Generally it is estimated between 5.7 to 6.7 gigawatts, percentage wise about 0.347% of the UK's power comes from wind.
What renewable energy is used in the UK?
The UK already obtains about 2% of its electricity from renewable sources, chiefly from large to medium scale hydro-electric plants.
What percentage of the UK's energy is produced by solar energy?
92% why because solar energy can be very high since its by the sun
How much power is produced in the UK by wind power?
As of 2021, wind power contributes around 24% of the electricity generated in the UK. The total capacity of wind power installations in the UK is over 24 gigawatts. Wind power has become a significant source of renewable energy in the UK's energy mix.
What is the main type of energy in the UK?
Our major energy source in the UK is fossil fuels (coal oil and natural gas) which constitutes 2/3rds of our energy production Nuclear and renewable energy such as wind, hydroelectric and solar make up the remaining 1/3.

How many wind turbines are there in Scotland?
As of 2021, there are over 6,000 wind turbines in Scotland, making it a leader in wind energy generation in the UK. The country has made significant investments in renewable energy, including wind power, to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and combat climate change.
What are the disadvantage of a wind turbine?
There Aren't many disadvantages only the cement used for the base and the cost for building and transporting it.AnswerThere are very few advantages. Wind turbines are one of the most expensive forms of energy generation, made affordable only because of enormous subsidies which are then passed on to consumers as elevated energy bills. They only produce a fraction of their rated capacity for most of the time. Their energy output is completely unpredictable. In the case of the UK, none is made in the UK, so taxpayers money is used to employ foreign workers to manufacture them and to increase the profits of foreign companies.On the other hand, if you are a landowner (paid to have them on their land), or a wind turbine manufacturer, or a wind turbine worker, then wind turbines are wonderful!

What is the most harmful energy used in the UK?
