Hello all!
I've come across a bit of a problem today as I was changing a socket and got a tingle (Isolated the MCB of course).
I tested the voltage and it was pulling 12v.
I've found when you isolate the upstairs lights the 12v on the upstairs sockets disappears.
Its a 17th edition dual RCD...

Ok, I need some help here, cause I can't find the answer anywhere.
Lets say you have this instrument cluster and the 12v or 24v sticker along with the part number is worn out.
Also, the lamps are missing, so you can't read their voltage engraving as well.
How can you tell the voltage of it? How...

Hi,
I've 26 MR16 12v downlights in my property. At the moment they're running 50w halogens, LED's would obviously be the more efficient option.
I think I've got a pretty solid plan for converting but I'm hoping someone will be able to point out any glaring omissions :stooge_curly:

Hi all.
I have just received a 12V 2 pole 2NO and 2NC and there's no instructions on how to connect it to the power.
Normally being a coil negative swapped with positive would make no difference however, this has an LED light and a resister.
I am thinking the 12V life wire should before the...

Hi,
I have 19 12V downlights in my living room that I am thinking of changing to 240V LEDs (out of the Kosnic range from CPC, already put the 6w flood ones in instead of halogen in the existing GU10 holders in my kitchen and am impressed!).
I currently have the Tamlite Starlite range of 50w...
Hi all,
I'm looking at installing a 12v socket that is fed from an ignition live, rather than the original socket which is a constant live.
What's the best way to do this?
I've read that the only way to do this, without cutting into original cabling, is to get an "add a circuit" piggy back...
