    Chances of constant current LED's having been fried!?

    Picked up a job where the previous electricians had not connected some collingwood LED stair lights (they were exited from the job!), they had been wired in parallel and no doubt hooked up to an LED driver, anyone up on their electronics? Have they definitely been fried or is it worth taking a...

    New build compliance vs renovation compliance

    I must admit I was being facetious!:-) I would recommend you speak to your BCO and discuss your situation and ask their advice (they like that!) most councils will allow you to commission an EICR at your cost and pay an additional regularisation of works charge to comply with building regs.

    New build compliance vs renovation compliance

    A third party sign off is meant to be supervised from design through installation and culminating in inspect and test. Do you have completed test sheets for the work you have completed thus far? Plenty of photos of all cable routes and installation methods etc?

    12v LED tape recommendations please?

    Funnily enough I found their offerings last night whilst trawling the web, many thanks, think I will probably go with them. Now the question is 5 or 14.4w per m for under cupboard kitchen lights?:-)

    12v LED tape recommendations please?

    After a recommendation for decent cuttable LED tape, have been using enlite weatherproof (Can't remember where I bought my last reel?) but it has been a pain to join, looking for a tape and supplier, prefer 12v.

    Fault on lighting circuit - What am I missing?

    Found an untraceable core of a three core and earth which had been earth sleeved and put into the earth bar, as soon as I removed it all the IR results shot up!?

    Megaflo Y plan problem

    Never assume that changing a head will sort out a dodgy three port valve, had this last week and changing the head didn't solve the problem as the valve body was knackered. Changed the whole valve, problem sorted!
