Hi all.
I want to get 2394/5 combined course done. Been looking at a training provider called Eversafe based in Wickford Essex, has anyone used these before and have any opinions on them. Thanks.
I will be installing several smoke - heat and carbon monoxide detectors shortly as per spec. I've not done carbon monoxide detectors before. I take it, electrically wiring them is the same as smoke and heat detectors. They will be wired and interconnected on one circuit and protected by a RCBO...
Hi,
The sister in law owns a beauty salon, she moved into it 3 and a half years ago, and when she did, it was gutted to 4 walls and rewired from the ground up.

Ok, bit of a silly one here,

Trying to find them so any links would be great!
A landlord has given me a copy of a test form from a company called GAS-ELEC, looking over the form I can see virtually no info on the installation, Zs taken from the fuseboard and not Ze, nothing mentioned about no RCD protection on the lighting. Considering there is not much info there are...
Ever now and again I'd like to be able to use my computer to generate a "layout" of a design so they can see where lights and accessories are going to be placed.
So my questions is:
Can anyone recommend a cheapish software package to do building layouts?
I've tried Your Home 3D Designer...
