    Anyone know of a multicore clamp meter?

    The Megger MMC850 did give variable results, but if you were careful to rotate the cord within the jaws it was easy to figure the maximum/actual current being drawn. I had one for use in the data centres I was responsible for. A good bit of kit and very handy for certain situations. I'm not...

    Is this possible that neighbourhood swap a fuse connected to my apartment in staircase fusebox?

    It is extremely unlikely that your neighbour has swapped the fuse for your flat with one a weaker one. Your neighbour would struggle to change the fuse in 7-8 seconds, they would also need to have bought a smaller fuse with their own money. It is also unlikely that the fuse board under the...

    Changing an outside PIR light to a standard one

    Unfortunately Kevin you have not understood the function of the wires coming into the old light, and as a result you don't know what wire does what.

    Creating Neutral in 2-Gang Switch from Conventional T&E Wiring

    The RCBO won't be affected by the change at all, unless you fit additional smart switches and they leak earth current.
