R Baker (Electrical) Ltd has now been approved and a gained CHAS accreditation.
In 1997 a group of health and safety and procurement professionals from across Great Britain worked with the Association of London Government (ALG) to develop CHAS. In 2001 CHAS became a web-based system.
CHAS started with two main aims.
  1. To improve health and safety standards across Great Britain.
  2. To reduce duplicated safety applications for both suppliers and buyers.
These days we have more than 400 public and private sector buyer organisations, such as councils, housing associations, NHS trusts, including a growing number of large private companies who employ sub-contractors.

Rail Systems


New live line tester for electrified rail systems


Electrical safety testing specialist Seaward has developed a new live line voltage indicator to ensure  safe working on third-rail electrified railway lines and systems.
The new Seaward LLT two pole voltage detector enables service engineers, maintenance personnel and technical staff to verify that conductor rails have been isolated from the power supply before maintenance or inspection work commence on rail track systems.
The new unit has been designed specifically for the safe and practical detection of voltages on electrified rail systems above a threshold level of 300V DC up to a maximum of 1100V DC.
Ultrabright red LEDs and a polarising filter built into the handle section of the tester make the voltage indication clearly visible in all working environments and conditions - even in bright sunlight.
Designed and manufactured in compliance with international safety standard BS EN61243-3, the live line test unit is totally encapsulated in a shock resistant high impact rugged enclosure and is IP65 rated. The tester is also equipped with PVC hand guards and high visibility cable.
Also available from Seaward is a special battery powered proving unit for self-test proof of Live Line Tester performance before and after use. The compact and highly portable unit incorporates a neon active indicator for simple and immediate on-site verification of tester functionality - enabling line testing and any subsequent maintenance work to be undertaken safely and without hazard.
A special carrying case for the Live Line Tester and LLT Proving Unit is also available.
The introduction of the new live line tester for railway service applications expands the Seaward range of voltage indicators and safety testing equipment that includes a comprehensive range of neon and digital high voltage indictors, safe discharge units, neon and digital phasing equipment, insulator leakage detectors and current clamps.

R Baker (Electrical) Ltd | What is a Transformer?

What is a transformer?

R Baker (Electrical) Ltd | Tel 0151 486 6760 | www.rbaker.co.uk

Transformer are used for a range of applications but all use the same theory of transferring electrical energy from one circuit to another through inductively coupled conductors, which are known as the transformer's coils.

The two principles of a transformer are an electric current producing a magnetic field and secondly that a changing magnetic field within a coil of wire induces a voltage across the ends of the coil. Altering the current in the primary coil changes the magnetic flux that is developed. The changing magnetic flux induces a voltage in the secondary coil.

When manufacturing an ideal transformer you would have no energy losses, and would be 100% efficient. In practical when manufacturing and designing transformers you have to take into account energy that is dissipated in the windings, core, and surrounding structures. Larger transformers are generally more efficient, and those rated for electricity distribution usually perform better than 98%.

If you are looking to get a transformer manufactured or would like a quote for a repair please see our website at www.rbaker.co.uk/products/transformers.
