    Climate Change is not alone, changers on the way

    No, but you do have to be a "Scientist". Most people live a fairly sheltered life and have no real handle on wat is happening, they either listen to the news and fully accept Man Made climate change or they don't. Fosil fuels are maintained as they are controllable, in that the price and...

    BONDING METAL WORKTOPS

    Isn't this why we have additional protection it the form of RCDs? What is bonding going to achieve? It's going to introduce an alternative, low resistance, earth path. Take, for example, a hand held blender. You're stood holding it and a metal mixing bowl on our metal worktop. There is a...

    Climate Change is not alone, changers on the way

    Oil wont run out. As cheap to extract oil is exhausted the price will increase. As the price rises previously uneconomical sources become viable for extraction. Now something odd happens, as investment and technological advances happen the price of oil falls as extraction costs fall until...

    25 ohms Zdb + same reading for all circuits

    No, just a related story from my past. A long winded way of saying check the MET.

    25 ohms Zdb + same reading for all circuits

    A slightly embarrassing admission but after a long day of fault chasing, tripping sockets, not Ze related, I reinstated the circuit and on my way out did a quick Zs and got a similar double digit Zs. Chased it all the way to the MET and had the same result from the bus bar camber to the MET...

    That MK Rapid Fix socket thing

    Pretty much all been said. They have their uses, confind spaces, but too pricey for big jobs.

    UK Help identify box in bedroom cupboard

    I could do with the same sticker on my --- after a few bevvies and a curry.

    Screwfix trunking Woes

    Exactly. CEF are an unashamed corner shop for electrical parts. They are invariably the nearest when I'm on the road and you pay for that convenience, or well the customer does. Either that or pay my time to go shopping around. We have multiple accounts but as a rule its CEF when on the road...

    when did the impact driver become the tool of choice to do terminals up ?

    Are you mad? Multitool for skinning.

    when did the impact driver become the tool of choice to do terminals up ?

    Not always I but have, in combination with a torque screwdriver.

    when did the impact driver become the tool of choice to do terminals up ?

    I think my first/second post on this thread states that's exactly what I do. Because my torque screwdriver is calibrated and the correct and recommended tool. If that works for you and gives you the correct results then crack on but don't assume someone doing something differently to you...

    when did the impact driver become the tool of choice to do terminals up ?

    You don't get anywhere near the point of impacting, it's called trigger discipline, the more you practice the better you get. I can fix a plastic back box with it as well and without smashing the living love out of it. My dentistry with it is still a work in progress though, not many willing...

    when did the impact driver become the tool of choice to do terminals up ?

    Remember getting a "good hiding" for knackering my old man's. Think it was either light sabre or sonic screwdriver related tomfoolery.

    Mcb to fit MEM fuse carrier

    I have one MEM MCB of a similar vintage but have no idea if it will fit that CU. Not much use I know but the newer, black lettered, MEMs are very different from the older red lettered ones.

    when did the impact driver become the tool of choice to do terminals up ?

    Why, in these threads, do the anti camp always refer to 'tightening' when the pro camp always, and without fail, talk about running up, or nipping up prior to fully tightening. Nobody, sane, is talking about tightening using an impact driver. That's not to deny 'they' are out there. Equally...

    when did the impact driver become the tool of choice to do terminals up ?

    No it isn't, it has a variable trigger or mine does. It also doesn't "impact" until it reaches a certain resistance which engages the "hammer". The "hammer" is actually two parts, one anvil attached to the bit holder and another spring-loaded anvil is driven by the motor. Only when enough...
