    Replacing Consumer Unit

    So, I’ve got the new board fitted and some of the tests completed, but as I envisaged, there are a few faults. It’s a TNC-S. Downstairs sockets, no continuity on L & N, 0.53 on cpc. Tested the L at sockets coming away from cu using my wander lead, all sockets in living room and in to the...

    Help pricing for upcoming job

    How long do you think it will take you, including testing and completing the certificate? At first like me you’ll probably under estimate the labour costs and how long certain jobs will take you. But with time you’ll get better at pricing up jobs. As for materials I was told adding 10% was...

    Replacing Consumer Unit

    Well I’ve just found that the earth bonding cable under the sink isn’t even connected, it’s just a single piece of 4/6mm earth cable hanging loose. So I’m gonna have to run a new 10mm earth bonding cable externally around the house to the kitchen. Would it be ok to use black copex clipped to...

    Replacing Consumer Unit

    There is one problem I found earlier this week with my consumer unit and the earth bonding. Firstly, there’s no bonding to the incoming gas supply, the gas meter is outside directly behind my meter cupboard, so I can drill a hole and add bonding that way. But the current water supply earth...

    Replacing Consumer Unit

    Because there’s nothing wrong with current consumer unit, so to get his permission I’m doing it & paying for it myself.

    Replacing Consumer Unit

    If I had the money and it was my house, then yes it would’ve been all RCBO’s, but I’m not that generous to my landlord.

    Socket and switch heights

    I recently had this discussion with a guy on my crew at work who does kitchen renovations. Last year he did a kitchen refit for another crew member and he insisted that all the new sockets in the kitchen and new dinning room had to be at the ‘new build’ heights, so the customer has sockets at...

    Price of joining a scheme

    As superchick said, I have my 2392-10 which allows me to verify & test, I believe the 2394-95 is the next level up in testing which allows you to do periodic testing etc.

    Replacing Consumer Unit

    Unfortunately neither appliance has an isolator, but thanks for the L+N to E tip. I have access to the loft, but not boarded out, so will have to be extra careful up there.

    Replacing Consumer Unit

    Tomorrow I’m changing my consumer unit in preparation for my NICEIC assessment on 13th November and have a few queries. Firstly, current cu only has 4 circuits sockets up & down and lights up & down, so hopefully a pretty straight forward swap. I can unplug 95% of loads on both ring finals...

    Price of joining a scheme

    Not yet mate, haven’t got the money at present. Don’t think I can get a JIB (gold card) as I’ve not done an apprenticeship or got a minimum of 2 years with a company.
