Overview of the power connection

• Designates a power connection with at least 400 volts.
• Is suitable for e.g. ovens, stove & sauna
• Power current = three-phase alternating current or three-phase current
• Laying as a layman no problem
• Connection only by electrician
• Costs: 120€ – 500€

Checking the phase sequence

Here in the video it is shown how the correct order of the phases is determined or corrected.

Cable drum: Outdoor power connection (camping and caravans)

Meanwhile, camping is usually not only with the most necessary equipment, such as tent, mattress and sleeping bag on the road, but travels instead with a little more luxury. This includes not only mobile phones & Co., but for example in the caravan, motor home or camper, also an electric refrigerator, coffee maker and possibly a heater or air conditioner. For this, of course, you also need electricity, for the large consumers such as Smoke round BBQ, even high voltage current.

Volt, voltage, resistance?! Basics electrics

The four most basic physical quantities in electricity are:

• Voltage (V)
• Current (I)
• Resistance (R)
• Power (P)

Each of these quantities is measured using different units:

• Voltage is measured in volts (V)
• Current is measured in amperes (A)
• Resistance is measured in ohms (Ω)
• Power is measured in watts (W)

Electrical power, or the wattage of an electrical system, is always equal to the voltage multiplied by the current.

A system of water pipes is often used as an analogy to help people understand how these units of electricity interact. In this analogy, voltage corresponds to water pressure, current corresponds to flow rate, and resistance corresponds to pipe size.

Ohm’s law

In electrical engineering, there is a basic equation that explains how voltage, current, and resistance are related. This equation, described below, is known as Ohm’s Law.

Ohm’s law
V = I x R

Ohm’s law states that voltage is equal to the current flowing in a circuit times the resistance of the circuit.

One way to understand Ohm’s Law is to apply it to the imaginary piping system we have used to represent an electrical system.

Example: Water tank

Suppose we have a water tank connected to a hose. When we increase the pressure in the tank, more water comes out of the hose. So when we increase the voltage in an electrical system, we also increase the current.

If we decrease the diameter of the hose, the resistance increases, so less water comes out of the hose. So if we increase the resistance in an electrical system, we decrease the current.

Tip. House conversion = increase in value

Home remodeling can put an old property to new use. Is it worth the investment before selling the house? Small rooms can be combined. Alternatively, new rooms can be created. Roof conversions or basement conversions can even add new square metres.

• House remodel

This opens up a lot of possibilities for current home residents, but can sometimes make sense if you’re looking to sell your home. Especially for old buildings with small rooms, a conversion can work wonders and appeal to more buyers.

However, conversions involve a lot of effort and a high financial outlay. You should therefore only use it to increase the value of your property if it noticeably improves your chances on the real estate market.

Tenants’ rights – noise, termination and property

Tenants have many rights in a tenancy of which they usually know nothing. In disputes you are then lost and do not know whether you are in the right or whether you have claims. To prevent this, there is some tenancy law that should be part of the basic knowledge for many tenants and is important for many situations.

Termination due to own need – What is the landlord allowed to do and what not?

The most important first step in terminating a tenancy for personal use is that it must be in writing. There are numerous court rulings on this subject, as it can become a problem even for long-time tenants. This is because if the landlord files a claim for own use, the tenant can quickly lose the apartment. However, this does not go without saying and requires some rules. This type of termination requires a formal and substantive correct Eigenbedarfskündigung. Such notice can even be given to tenants who have not been guilty of anything during the entire rental period and who have always behaved in accordance with the contract. Such a notice must be likewise justified by the landlord opposite the tenant. However, it is a misconception that after such a termination the tenant will lose the apartment in any case, because even if this is the most common reason for termination in Germany, this case does not always have to occur.

The pure desire to live in one’s own apartment is not sufficient as a reason for terminating the lease for personal use. The landlord must give a reasonable and comprehensible reason for the termination. Many court decisions prove that the tenant does not always have to leave the rental property after such a termination. More details: net rental yield. For example, companies are not allowed to give notice of termination for personal use, but landlords who could have foreseen that the apartment would be needed for personal use in the near future cannot give notice of termination for personal use, because in this case they would have had to conclude a fixed-term lease. But what is a reason that can lead to a notice of termination for own use? This includes, for example, the reasons that the landlord needs the rooms for himself, his relatives or members of his household, but also if he wants to use the rooms for his professional work or that of a family member.

An important point to consider if your landlord sends you such a notice is whether they own any other properties. Often landlords own more than one property. If this is the case, the landlord must check whether another comparable property is or will be available for his use before giving notice of termination for personal use. Should the landlord still not be able to use this comparable property for his purposes due to, for example, a walking disability, he must offer the comparable property to you as a substitute and also inform you of the financial conditions of this alternative. Otherwise, the notice of termination for personal use is invalid.

If you receive a notice of termination for personal use, check it thoroughly, because there are some formal and substantive points that must be included. If these are not to be found in the termination letter, the termination is invalid. So pay attention to the following points:

• A notice of termination for own use must be made in writing and must be adressed to all tenants of the apartment who are parties to the tenancy agreement.
• A notice of termination must also be signed by all landlords
• The persons who will move in for personal use must be listed with name, age and address
• The longer the tenancy, the longer the period of notice: at least three months, six months for tenancies of five years or more, and nine months for tenancies of more than eight years.
• The reason of the landlord for the own need must be described in detail
• The statutory periods of notice apply in the case of a notice of termination for own use.

Noise pollution – the right to live without noise

Noise pollution is a frequent subject of dispute between landlord and tenant, as the landlord is obliged to eliminate the noise but often has no influence on it. If there is noise nuisance in the property, it must be reported to the landlord immediately. The landlord must keep the property in a defect-free condition and this includes noise as it can cause a nuisance to the tenant. After notification of this defect, the landlord must remedy it within a reasonable period of time. If this is not done, the tenant is entitled to reduce the rent, even if the noise is caused by third parties that the landlord can not influence.

Rent reduction – what are your rights and when are you allowed to reduce the rent?

There is often a dispute about which noise source can lead to a rent reduction and how appropriate the reduction is. Probably the most common case is noise from the neighbouring apartment. Here no rent reduction can be asserted, if this refers to noises, which are connected with the usual use of the dwelling. However, if music is playing so loudly every night that you cannot sleep, a rent reduction is definitely possible. Another reason for a rent reduction are footsteps that can be heard from the upper flat. Landlords are responsible for sufficient footstep sound insulation. If this is not present, there is automatically a reason for rent reduction. The impact sound insulation must meet the standards at the time of installation, even if there are now stricter regulations. So if there is impact sound insulation, but you can still hear every step your neighbour takes, you have to live with it. In fact, construction noise is also one of the most common reasons for a reduction in rent. Depending on the extent of the noise, tenants can reduce their rent by up to 35 percent. Even though landlords cannot influence the noise and usually cannot do anything about it, they have to accept this regulation. In such a case, landlords can assert a neighbour-law compensation claim against the owner of the building plot.

However, noise caused by children is given special treatment. This must be tolerated by neighbours, no matter what time of day it occurs. However, it must remain socially adequate and thus within the bounds of what is usual. This includes, for example, children’s screaming and squealing. However, if the children drive through the apartment on roller skates or continuously throw balls against the walls or the floor, the limit has been exceeded and a rent reduction can be claimed. The type of noise is very different and depends on the situation. It does not always have to be loud music, because even small noises can be annoying in the long run. What also cannot be listed as a reason for rent reduction is traffic noise. Because although airplane or car noise can also be very annoying, it is not enough for a reduction in rent as long as it is within reason for the location of the apartment. So before you move in, make sure you know where the property is located and what kind of noise disturbance you can expect.
