    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.

    Day 2 of 5, and it's music again!

Anyway, I promised something gentler this time, so here is today's offering. I do like a duet, and HF is a fave of mine, so together with AB they...

    #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...

    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...

    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...

    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?

    Smoke detectors and Scotland (again!)

    Lots of threads already about the new legislation, and February ain’t far away… so I’d just like to post a few queries for discussion. Not that I’ve come across anything myself. Customers are usually happy with the bare minimum, but just things I’ve heard. Smoke detector fitted in attic where...

    Cooker switch plates again

    Just been asked to reinstate a cooker point. Existing feed is checking out perfectly. However, the existing back box has top and bottom lugs ~135mm apart. I'm assuming that this is an old imperial box. Can anyone suggest what faceplate is appropriate? Yes, yes, next time I take a photo...

    Copper prices going up up and up again

    Went to scrap yard today, had a large sack, just shy of 20KG of stripped copper cables. Was shocked when he said £6 per KG... nice Brucy bonus for me there... Copper has gone up again after a little fall. from a job point of view it means the price of cables is going to go up even further. Did...
