    Emails should be working fine again now

    If you noticed a problem with emails over the past 4-5 days, you should find it starts to kick in today for you. Let me know if you have any problems or don't get emails correctly.

    #5 of my 5 a week...and again, not a rant

    Nope, I'm not coming out... I'm having a quiet day so decided to post this morning rather than after gin o'clock. My friendly DPD driver, Ross, is due shortly with the replacement Sangamo controller for my water heater so that's a wee job for this afternoon. Other stuff... I like boats of all...

    Help needed again pls - Lighting fault tracing

    I need your help please once again in tracing a fault. Am DIY but not clueless. Converting former kitchen into 2 rooms: bathroom and laundry. The room had 24 cheapo ceiling spots, originally tungsten then 240v GU10 LEDs that I am replacing. Circuit spilt into two halves with two gang wall...

    Ring wired doorbells (again!)

    I’m trying to install my Ring doorbell (2nd gen) and I’ve discovered that the transformer feeding my Freidland isn’t producing any power. I suspect that I connected the jumper lead between the wrong wires (thanks to Ring’s really confusing instruction!) so I now need to replace it. I don’t want...

    Council bod strikes again

    Here we go again, another job that has had a council inspection, different council to last time but still perplexing. The problem with these jobs is we don't get a spec and are told to just do what you think is best, so we do. We work for a company that does work for an insurance company that...

    Ring Final Circuit (RFC) versus Radial. Yes, again.

    This is a topic that comes up a lot and seems to attract near-religious levels of fever in how folks argue over the choice of circuit for UK sockets. However, often the arguments are ill-informed or they veer off in to pointless corners, or sometimes get personal. This is my attempt to put a lot...

    Motor cap failed again

    I have a pressure washer that I got as part of "a good deal", actually an exceedingly good deal as I later found out. I've had it a while, I guess probably at least 25 years, but it doesn't get used all that often. Hard to say, but I reckon I've probably not done 200 hours with it in that time -...

    R1 R2 Chestnut time again

    We all know how to and why we get the 1/4 value, but to what, if anything do we add to that figure and into what box on the cert does it go, depends on who you ask/assessor is apparently,

    making Faulty Towers again.

    So I heard on the news this morning that they will be reviving Fault Towers. Also see below. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-64563839 I can't see this going far. Don't get me wrong, I loved the original (as you can tell by my signature) but there will be too many people...

    SY cable on EICR again ....

    Morning all So the site I'm based at recently had some work done (think partitioners). This package of work included electrical. This was actually good news to me in a way, as it was one less job for me to do on an already busy schedule - but it was niggling at me that I'd possibly end up...

    Oven dying then coming back to life then dying again like the terminator at the end of the film

    Hi Our oven stopped working suddenly including the clock. It was on the fan oven setting at about 150 degrees. I checked the fuse board - it had not tripped. A little bit later when I used one of the gas hobs (the gas hobs have an automatic igniter) the oven came back to life ie clock came back...

    EICR - I completed all remedial works now being told he needs to do a full test again

    Hey all, Could do with some help. I had a company recommended to me who quoted me to do an EICR on my rental property. (£265). I thought this was quite expensive but as I've been messed around no end by tradesmen I thought I'd go with the recommendation and pay the extra. I also asked him to...

    TNC-S Supply but combined again at DB?

    Took a look at a block of flats today that has a TNC-S supply. Each flat is fed by a 2-core mineral insulated cable. The earth and neutral are then combined again using a henley block prior to entering the consumer unit. Has anyone come across this before?

    Amendment 2 BS7671 again

    Just watched a video by J Ward covering parts 1,2 & 3, any thoughts on the consumer unit, this being a Type Tested Assembly, where if non compatible Mcb’s are used it does not comply & does not remain a Consumer Type Tested Assembly. No mention of what it becomes though, so what happens next...

    Solar Solariboost+ failed again

    My first solariboost+ was installed in 2015. In July 2019 it went dead, power good. Marlec supplied me with a reduced cost unit (£149) which was installed the same month, now this one has failed in less than three years. The immersion heater element was new about three years ago and still works...
