    Strange quinetic issue

    They are available in France and used extensively in renovation work with exposed internal stone walls, must have installed over 100 and never had a problem, trouble is I can't remember the brand, and can't find them now on my old wholesalers web site, but I am sure it was Quinetic. Just...

    UK Quinetic switch question.

    Silly question, but have you paired the switch to the receiver unit?

    UK Quinetic switch question.

    Never had a problem with any of mine, but as far as I can remember the power unit is polarity conscience, just a thought.

    2 way light switch wired incorrectly (by myself)

    As above you will probably find the originals where oriented the same way and your replacements are upside down to each other, or visa versa. I used to work on L2 = Blue and go from there.

    UK Change RCD type at CU to enable RCDs at socket outlets

    I would be tempted to change the RCD and MCB's too RCBO's they can be then retrofitted into your new board at your convenience later.

    I should think that electricians hating plumbers is reciprocal.

    Running electric to island.

    I would run singles in a 25mm flexible conduit rather than T&E easier to replace if needed, pulling one out attached to the new length of single.

    recommend to replace/upgrade this flush mounted CCU

    I think your main problem is going to be the height of cut out in the front panel, needs to be checked against manufactures dims for RCBO's, MCB etc: may have to look for a new front panel, never know MK may still use the same dims between the fixing screws and position of DIN rail?

    There is nothing statutory that says you have to take any course to enable you to work, so whatever you do is not outside the law, saying that the C&G are a respected source of learning and would be adequate defence in the very, very highly unlikely situation that you had to prove competence...

    Why do you think you need to pay for an 18the edition course rather than reading up what changed and inwardly digesting, all someone on the course will do is read the 18th edition at you.
