I have an electrician undertaking the wiring changes required for the installation of a new kitchen. An issue has arisen because he insists on connecting my double oven (max load 5.9kW) to one of the rings - the house has two rings (each 32amp MCB). For the last 20 years a nearly identical...
Hi guys, I have a dedicated circuit for my fridge which is on a 32amp circuit and also runs off a fcu. Is it possible to have the fridge and a separate freezer connected to the double gang socket ? So both appliances are sharing the socket . Thanks !

Hi all
I want to replace the switch that turns on/off the gas fireplace and cannot find a breaker that would shut off the power to the switch. I thinks it's a stand alone switch to the fireplace.

I have a fair amount of basic electrical experience but have never dealt with 3 way switches. I am upgrading the 1970's wiring in my attic and came across a light fixture controlled by a 3 way switch. If the 3 way switch is in the off position, the switch on the other end does not function. The...
