    A good recovery from yourself. Have fitted many Wylex isolators and have never had an issue. Guess you were just unfortunate on this occasion.

    Planning garage sub-main project

    If you fall out with the miss’s and are crashing in the shed one night and your RCBO trips right in the middle of a good movie, you will have to trail back to the house in the dark to reset the RCBO. Better design required, ideally with your RCBO at the shed end.

    Stage 2 insulation resistance test

    I had already tested the cable all the way through to the cooker connection unit, by joining the two cut ends of each conductor, so circuit was tested at 500v all the way to the circuit extremity. I will just do another I/R test at 250v now that the cooker control unit is connected and make a...

    Stage 2 insulation resistance test

    Maybe I am interpreting 643.3.3 wrongly. I have carried out my 500v test on the circuit cable only, before I connected a cooker control unit with integrated neon to it. I won’t repeat the reg, word for word, but, It then goes on to say that following connection of equipment, a test at 250v shall...

    Disconnecting old mirror with lights

    You don’t want a live cable in the wall, even if it is terminated correctly. It ideally wants disconnected at its source. If there is nothing to indicate that there is a live cable in the wall, it could pose a danger to anyone in the future who may drill into the wall for some reason. You know...

    Disconnecting old mirror with lights

    If that’s VIR cable, it’s probably best that it is disconnected anyway. Hard to tell from the photos though.
