    Bounce back business loans

    I would assume so as it would keep you going until you can earn some money. It can be paid back without penalties, so get it, use it if you need to or pay it back if you don't. That's how I see it.

    Bounce back business loans

    I've done it, money should be in the bank this week. Only to be used for business purposes but no payments for the first 12 months and government pays the first years interest.

    How common is reversed polarity?

    :) It was one of a block of four flats and the lads managed to sort it while the NICEIC man was watching me testing a ring (rather slowly) in another flat!

    How common is reversed polarity?

    One of our lads (many moons ago) decided to get the tails the wrong way round on one of the jobs that the NICEIC man was having a look at for our annual assessment!

    Quality new install

    We stopped doing new builds years ago, couldn't compete with £1375 for a 3 bed semi!

    Help needed, is this correct?

    We see this quite a lot on the houses that we test, also see supply and load mixed up at fused spurs. Switch the spur off and the ring is broken.

    Do they do an RCBO that'll fit that type of board?

    Strange 2-way wiring

    When I was an apprentice, (many, many moons ago) we used to run a twin red/black between switches, live down to one switch and switchwire to the other switch. Don't think my boss had heard of 3c & earth :D

    Downlights and the different varieties..

    Same here. Can't always get a match for integrated so it's GU10 type. We tend to use click.

    Why do you need to go into the property? With some of the reports we see, it's obvious that the "spark" has just guessed it all!
