    Has anyone used these cylindrical pendants before?

    A client asked me to fit them today, I can't see how you could do so safely. The base plate is very small and only one cable could go through the hole. There is only a couple of mill of thread at most to screw the cover onto and as you are screwing you would be twisting the cables inside the...

    Blown Switch - never had this before!

    We've got a overnight storage heater, fairly old but still going. That was until it starting tripping the RCD, so half the CU went off. The switch has a crack and upon investigation it was burnt out, melted some of the cable insulation too. Switch replaced, but radiator still isolated at the...

    Average price for an EICR? Another poll! Please read post before voting.

    I'm going a bit poll crazy at the moment. I love polls! This one is just a bit of fun. It's obviously very inaccurate and there will be many variations on price, but... Lets just ask 'What price would you charge for an EICR on an average 2-3 bed house'? No outbuildings, one consumer unit (10...

    How can I tell if my ceiling fan supports wiring the lights and fan separately, before calling an electrician to actually wire it up?

    I have a few ceiling fans in my house. Each is controlled by a single wall switch. I'd like to have them re-wired so that I can control the fan and the lights independently. I can't tell if the fans in the house actually support that or not and I'm struggling on Google figuring out how I would...

    How long before chasing payment?

    Maybe I've just been lucky, but I very rarely have an issue with customers paying, the vast majority have paid straight away or within a few days. However I'm still waiting for payment for an emergency call out I attended in early December. Without going into all the details, I got a call at...

    UK RCD before a 230v/24 PSU?

    Hi all I have seen a schematic drawing for a control panel recently where they (whoever drafted the drawings, designed the panel) show a RCD before the 230v/24v dc PSU, and the PSU is the only device downstream of the RCD in my mind this has no merit. The 24v secondary d.c side of the PSU...

    Does a CU swap require a full initial verification on all circuits before it can be energised?

    To my understanding it would be ideal to test and inspect before energisation, but it isn't 100% necessary. If it leaves a client without power, it breaches health and safety (no power to safety services etc) or inconveniences them I'd have thought it would be reasonably practicable to turn on...

    What is the incoming Voltage Before and After the Service Fuse?

    I know that after the Henley Block which houses the Service Mains fuse, the Voltage is 230v If we was to remove the fuse and Measure the incoming Live wire, would the Voltage still be 230v?
