    rugby

    I agree,but we couldn't cope with the Welsh pressure.The speed that they moved the ball.They will be hard beaten if they continue to play like that.From an Irish point of view I feel sorry for the likes of Odriscoll, Oconnell and Ogara who will more than likely retire. No matter what team you...

    Two way and intermediate switching

    They are both wrong.I suppose its a matter of who and how you served your time. For me its feed to switch 1,switch wire from switch 2 and strappers between all switches. I know a lot of you guys are fond of 3 plate system but I can't buy into having a permanent feed at a light.

    Tripping RCD

    The first thread said doorbell is on the rcd. Maybe I'm reading it wrong but is the rcd feeding a transformer. If so then some transformers are notorious for tripping rcds.Its only a stab at the dark but I would start there.

    Most physical sparkying?

    In the good old days in Ireland when the union represented the sparks,cable winches were not allowed as they reduced labour needs. It was a cable sock and rollers and manpower,I knew a couple of guys that broke fingers on bends in ladder racking. They then started using GO's to pull cables and...

    I had to get 9 stitches on my head from trying to gland and dress a 4x240 swa into a chiller on the roof of a factory.Tight spot. And before you ask where my helmet was,it was on the ground. Lesson learned.........

    Fire rated telephone cable fp200 /cw1600

    I thought that once the fire relay was normally closed it didn't need to be fire rated.It would failsafe open. I'm open to correction on this. As Tony said you don't need phone cable any fp cable will do

    Won't sleep tonight

    I'm personally against self certification. The governing bodies are a money making racket and will not employ enough inspectors. I think every job should be certified by a government employed third party,and thats the only way to weed out the cowboys.If you do good work as most do then you have...

    Tony I had the camera in the van but forgot to take it out.I will stick up a photo when I get back to the job. I started in this game when I left school 17 years ago and was always thought to take pride in your work.I would honestly say I was trained by some of the best men in the business and...

    Won't sleep tonight

    Lenny I know the guy he is notorious in the trade.I live in a rural part of the country so all sparks know each other.He was thrown out of one of the certifying bodies for workmanship years ago,but he's with a different one now and he's obviously hand picking his jobs for inspection.
