my local wholesalers denmans or devondale are great when they have stock in but their pretty useless when having to order in anything they dont normally have, normally takes months of pestering them
my goliath 250 worklight stopped working, its a 55w 4 pin 2d lamp
the ballast has blown, does anyone know where to get a replacement, if i search the original model - a visonator VEB155TC all i get is links to Taiwan sites
many thanks to anyone who can help me
i'd love to get away with 28 an hour, as soon as i start hitting the 20 mark i don't get any jobs (devon), most electricans around here are 15-20 an hour, the local garages for cars charge 25-30 an hour, i guess its cause there are more electricans around than garages?
yeah thanks, i know all about dmx from doing alot of concerts, i do alot of promotions and events so quite often do alot of stage lighting where you have all your led pars, strobes, floods, moving heads etc and they all have a 13amp plug and daisy chain all xlr cables in and out of everything...
i like the idea of using dimmer packs, i run alot of stage lighting cables in so i probably should know alot more about them but i didn't think of them in a building,
i've run a 1.5 t +e from all the track positions and downlights in bunches of 6-8 back to the bar which backs on to the mains...
wilts control gear stuff is horrible, its the older range stuff, i dont get chance to use bideford wilts very often i must admit though so i don't sample thier coffee enough
why would you say that?
i haven't had any problems in a domestic situation, fitted hundreds of the new boards, 90 quid for a 14 way board with 8 rcbos from denmans and loads of space to do a neat job, good quality plastic, breakers line up quite well on the din rail. never had an rcbo faulty?
i was going to use a control gear boards with rcbos for each circuit as their rcbos are only about a tenner each from denmans rather than a hager or merlin gerin board where the rcbos are 25-30 pounds each
i haven't used one but i think control gear do a 12 way 3 phase board which i could...
i don't really want to put 30 lights on one dimmer as i'd like to give more control to the pub manager to create various moods, i was looking to dim each track individually and the way it works out is that there is never more than 6 tables under a length of track. i asked the wholesaler rep who...
small fib, i didn't run the armoured out, they supply the existing outside lighting and i'd like to reuse them if i can. if they are not suitable for the amount of lights the owner wants to install then i'll have to run more/larger.
there are no plans, just someone trying to reift a country...
Hi
I'm Rewiring a pub/resturant complex and the owner would like to have dimmable led lighting thoughout inside
it'll be a mixture of the jcc led 7's tiltable and tracklighting with pendants with either an 8w or 11w dimmable led bulb in hovering over the tables
the'll be around 140 lights in...
i don't really think the price affects the quality of installs, its all about what someone is willing to pay, i don't live in a major city, i live in a rural area where wages are low. if i quoted a standard fuseboard change at £350 i wouldn't get any work, i'd rather earn £50 in a day then stay...
i do fuseboards for £200- £250 in devon but if the bonding needs doing it'd be £350, takes about 2-3 hours to change a fuseboard and 2 hours to test it if its about 6 circuits. a fuseboard to buy is between £80 - £120 depending if you want a duel rcd fully loaded board or a board populated with...
very easy paper, i took mine when i was 18 in my first year of the apprentiship back in 2001, i didn't really know what the 2391 was back then or what i was doing but my firm put me in for it and i passed it with no problems first time. i don't know why the pass rate is so low?
