    I am looking for some advice. My boiler and tv seem to trip for a few seconds almost every day.

    They are going off and back on but not tripping at the fuse box. Could anybody tell me what could be the cause and if this is dangerous? Thanks

    Hi every one. Thanks for letting me. Can I take my foot out of the door now?

    Been asked to check some one's house electrics, lots of DIY stuff. Nearly all sockets up and down are on radial circuits and 2 circuits going into each MCB. Bad points doing it this way?

    A Rather Obvious Forged EICR

    I know for a fact that the attached EICR is a forgery. I suspected as much even before I had been given a copy of the report. My suspicions were confirmed the moment I noticed that the tester had entered 25 years as the estimated age of the installation. The installation is in fact, brand-new...
