Is it OK to wire a dedicated UF heating pump to the switch live from the programmer to the Zone valve (usually brown) as I can't use the switch live to the boiler (usually orange) or it will fire up other zones when not required. I am worried about pump operating slightly before the UF heating...
Good evening. This is my first post and apologize for my grammar. I need to wire a steam bath shower which has 3500w max 16amp. I know that i need to use rubber 2.5mm cable but not sure what spur i should install. Can i put this on ring circuit ? Many thank for replies.
Afternoon, here's the proposed setup I am planning to supply 9 off 600w IR heating panels from a ring final circuit
the installation is commercial and the panels will be fitted to a suspended ceiling
a contractor and thermostat will control the heaters
the circuit is fed from a 32a rcbo

This is old Haes panel, installed in a council special needs learning centre, and maintained by a blue chip all building maintenance company. For the past 3 years they have serviced it every quarter, and given it a full bill of health certification.
On working on a building extension, we checked...
Would appreciate some advice on this please.
Got a contract starting next month rewiring 200 kitchens within a chalet complex. They require 6" extractor fans to be core cut through the concrete structure roughly 350mm in depth. I am looking at buying a dedicated core drill to do this. What...
I went to a job that the owner felt was a bodged job. It was basically a radial circuit wired at the start in 4.0mm T&E, and then it goes to a few sockets that is supplying a washing machine and tumble drier. From there it goes upstairs to the airing cupboard where it feeds a single switched...

JUST A QUICK BIT OF ADVICE REQUIRED.
HAVE RECENTLY BEEN TO PRICE A DB CHANGE OF THE DUAL SPLIT LOAD VARIETY.and noticed the instal has a dedicated smoke detection circuit .Now i have also noticed that this circuit is buried in plaster (through a safe zone) and in fact all circuits...
Hi Guys im quoting for a job which has three different areas of underfloor heating all being the Warm up manufacturer , to be honest I have never fitted the stuff , from what I can gather the draw isn't huge and looks fine to run from the existing ring main , however one of the areas is...
Hi these are two separate queries,
First off,
What are the minimum requirements for someone to carry out an EICR. I thought it was this and that but basically someone told me that you dont really need anything, just competence which can be ascertained by basic things i.e. ecs card no?

How about a dedicated sub forum for forum advertisers?
I've seen many forums that rely on forum advertisers have a sub forum with each advertiser having their own dedicated thread.
From there they can advertise any offers or answer any specific questions.
Just an idea..... :)
Hi everybody
Could someone clarify for me please what section / regs of BS7671 ( or if any other building regs etc) states that we should run a dedicated circuit to boilers OR what is the reason behind it. Appendix 15 of BS7671 states immersion heater/space heater and loads...
Just wondering if some of the experts thought there were definite advantages & disadvantages of splitting the incoming tails using a Henley Block etc and supplying a separate dedicated supply to the PV system as opposed to simply using a dedicated MCB/spur within the CU ??
Hi
What is the legal requirments for earthing arrangements. I have been asked to install fuse spur units at top of stairs for stairlift chargers around 2 amps. I have done some survey work and most of the properties are very old some with very old wooden db often with bs3036 fuses and...
Folks
I previously had this under the theory and regs forum which I suspect was the wrong place for it - apologies for that. I think it's more applicable here.
I live on the first floor in a 4 flat conversion late Victorian / Edwardian terraced property in Crystal Palace SE19.
Recently, I...
All
I suspect this was in the wrong section (this one seems to be theory / practice related for trade).
Sorry about that - will put in the general section instead.

We need some advice on the following.......
A potential new client has a hefty SWA cable across his field supplying five 6A caravan hook ups. Ideally he would like us to extend it over to his barn (20M) for a 4kWp system therefore avoiding having to install a new cable under ground.
