    Never have I ever!!!!!

    Never have I leaned over to flush the loo and my phone has slipped out of my pocket and gone down the pan!

    Never have I ever!!!!!

    Never have I lay down on the floor to reach for a cable under the floorboards only to crush my phone against my screw driver and crack the screen. ! :mad:

    Our thoughts go out to:

    The people that do these sorts of things are brain washed from an early age. Can they be persuaded to go against what they are taught as a child, led to believe and what is ingrained in them so deeply? I'm not so sure. The "do gooders" believe they can! The security services do a good job of...

    Our thoughts go out to:

    Its sad that in this day and age atrocities like this go on. Human beings you'd expect are civilized and understand the value of life and how precious it is. Senseless,pointless killings of innocent people, especially children sickens me to the core.

    What a mess!!!!!!!!!!!

    Can't you just leave it where it is and tidy it up? Or maybe locate it in a position where cable extension is not required? I'm not a personal fan of extending cables unless its absolutely necessary.

    Never have I ever!!!!!

    Never have I been absolutely bursting for the loo on site with no where to powder my nose, only to use a bucket in the back of my van then find out too late the bucket has a leak.

    Spur under bath allowed?

    Sounds like you luckily have a well installed bath! The quality of the bath, i.e thickness and construction can make a difference along with the quality of the sealant. Also when we install baths we support all the edges with timber so that any movement between the bath and tile is eliminated...

    Spur under bath allowed?

    I don't get why anyone would put the FCU's behind the bath (I assume this is the case). If there is no other option but to put the FCU under the bath I would put it in an accessible place just behind the bath panel and in a position that is least likely to get water ingress in the event of a...

    Me dad gave me a belt once, I couldn't sit down for a few days. Mind you thinking back I did deserve it :)

    What reference method

    In some aspects they make up their own version of the regs (my bold). In my opinion, if all else fails use common sense.

    Help! Downlights not working

    Replace the transformer with a higher rated one, the cost will be minimal. If you can though go with what Midwest first suggested and replace the light fittings with 230v led's , they last much longer, use less energy and run cooler.

    Drilled through cable in wall, can I fix? (Photo)

    Yep £120 is a days labour up our neck of the woods. I wouldn't mind a few of these jobs a day, I'd only have to work 3 days in stead of 7 ;)

    Drilled through cable in wall, can I fix? (Photo)

    If you plan on leaving the joint easily accessible then its an option, assuming there's enough slack and can be terminated correctly. But If you intend to plaster back over the joint then no they would not.

    Drilled through cable in wall, can I fix? (Photo)

    Have it repaired professionally. That method is not the way to do it properly and safely. Its not worth the agro, if you get it wrong then it could end up costing you more in the long run.

    No resistance Circuits

    These type of questions get raised on many of the science forums I'm a member of. The problem is they often start with a premise that is not possible in the first place. So, yes I agree its a good question in that its quite easy to answer and understand. So long as its accepted that there is not...

    Can I connect car alternator directly to the invertor

    Would it not make more sense to use a car battery? For the alternator direct connection to work as described (assuming you have enough Amp output) then the alternator would have to rotate at a constant rpm to produce a constant rate of power. I'd be more tempted to connect the invertor to a...

    No resistance Circuits

    There's no such thing as no resistance in an electrical circuit, much like there is no such thing as perpetual motion in mechanics.
