    light switch metal faceplate to plastic casing

    I've just bought a new boiler which refers to meggering the circuit. I think it was the boiler, something anyway. I was stumped as I don't have a megger tester . I could Fluke it?

    quoting for work

    This is something I struggle with too, not wanting to undersell myself but not wanting to be greedy. My other half is a painter decorator and I've been telling her for years that she doesn't quote enough. She gets a lot of work purely through recommendations and works long hours. The other thing...

    EIC's and building control

    I'm currently rewiring my own house and as I'm not on a scheme I've notified BC myself. They came and did one inspection (after 1st fix) and they'll come back when the EIC has been completed. That's it. He didn't bother looking at the wiring in the two lofts. I'm not sure whether there are...

    Advice on taking a bold step please

    Being completely honest I agree with those advising to get a job first because the qualifications don't help as much as you'd think when setting out. It's an unfortunate truth that you're unlikely to get an apprenticeship position at your age and companies don't seem to want to take on older...

    Van racking inspiration

    Great ideas, I want to do this with my van too as everything gets in a mess very quickly. The problem is I share it with my partner who is a painter decorator and just throws ---- in! At least if I have the shelves they'll stay organised.

    Where can I get these?

    Murdoch, the oven and hob. This is what the technical specs calls for.

    Where can I get these?

    Thanks both. I don't think the cables from screwfix meet the spec. I'll give CSE a buzz.

    Rod set - worth it?

    I'm wondering whether it's worth investing in a rod set? They seem quite expensive so are they worth it? How often do you use them? Do they work round tight corners? I currently use the old string method which sometimes works great but obviously has it's drawbacks!

    job interview

    Did you ask how many more they were interviewing and when you would be likely to hear? If it's a big company with HR involvement that can delay things. We also had to get sign off for the candidate we wanted to offer to as well as the salary offer which can also add an extra day or two. As...

    faffing with 2 way lighting

    Won't she still want to switch the landing light from downstairs? You may be able to pull a new cable through the existing route if you can get access.

    2 gang 2 way, 1 each end of the room, odd behaviour

    I came across this situation, it was incorrect wiring causing this perplexing lighting sequence. As already mentioned, a continuity tester would make easier work of straightening it all out.

    Quick oven question

    All, I have a 2.3Kw single oven. My current wiring is 10mm over a 10m run to cooker switch, 6mm to dual ccu and my plan is to wire both hob and oven directly into this in 4mm. The oven manual states fuse must be minimum 13amps. I just want to double check that the 45a cooker switch is ok since...
