Ok, so it's from 2015, but seriously?
Amazingly, the company still seems to be operating.
@Risteard @Phil Thompson @Matthewd29 is this the kind of garbage prices we need to compete with? Company this advert is from is based in Lisburn.
First time using Hager ADA reduced height RCBOs (as opposed to their tall ADN range).
See how beautifully they match up with their MTN circuit breakers (circuit far right next to main switch, for SWA feed to shed). :D
Compare to BG, my "go to" budget (and garage DB) brand... can't even get...
Hey all,
Just a little hello from me.
No qualifications as of yet however I am studying for 18th Edition, but not actively working in the industry so I'm not sure I'll ever get the opportunity to get enough practical done to obtain the qual.
I do have CUs on boards at home to practise with...
Yeh so bit of a rewire in order. You may spot 25mm four core swa zipping across the vista, piggy backed onto with the fire cable. Not long been done the fire alarm stuff. So will be interesting sorting it out. I do love a challenge. Lovely!
Looking to purchase a set of Little Giant Dark Horse ladders in the North Yorkshire area - happy to collect - anyone got a set that they're looking to sell? Cheers
This will sound mercinary, but I've signed up on behalf of my Dad, he's not very 'good' on this type of thing. He's been a sparky all his life but is now semi retired, in his 70's he deserves it! He has some Megger testing equipment that he wants to sell, so I've joined up to access you guys and...
Good afternoon all,
I was hoping for a little guidance from you all if you wouldnt mind helping?
Im replacing a light fixing in my kitchen and Im concerned that the new light only has live and neutral connectors, ommitting the earth contact. I have all 3 coming through the ceiling though. I...
Been looking for a little hoover to take into smaller domestic jobs with me as my good one is just too big to drag in when your only going to make a little mess, anyone recommend any good little hoovers probably preferably 240v rather than battery as I have enough things to remember to charge at...
Hi all,
After a stint in the armed forces followed by a much longer stint in the transport industry I'm now verging on 44yrs and am considering making a leap of faith in learning to become an electrician. I have booked a one week course in May to do a workshop in domestic (taster really) before...
hi guys, I'm having trouble understanding a question in my course book.
"State the current ratings of the following ring final circuit components and accessories."
1. circuit protective device
2. socket outlet
3. fused connection unit
As I understand it, a final ring is on a 30amp...
Apologies for asking probably simple questions to many of you & I spend quite a long time trying to work things out myself rather then asking for a quick fix but these are getting on my nerves as I can’t get my head around it.
Once I understand the working outs I seem to get on a roll for a...
Happy new year everyone, My names Ben, I am 30 years old and I live in a small town called Darwen which is in Lancashire. I have an interest in electrical work and have an NVQ Level 2 in Electrical installation. I am however looking to gain more experience in the industry as a sparks...
Hello all!

(Refurbishment project)
So in the garden area there are 2 external wall lights and a water feature in the garden.

Hey new to this so please bare with me. I completed a city and guilds level 3 electricians course and had been practising for over a year before the urge to travel took me to the far east for 6months! Whilst out there I spoke to a guy who is a PTS lecy and have thought about taking it up. I am...
Hi all,
The title says it all really, I have been asked to do a series of jobs in a 2 bed flat based in South West London. He's a really nice man and want to charge a fair price. Historically, I have only completed individual jobs at a time so am a bit stumped of how to charge for what he...
Hello again and thank you for anyone who has posted on the other poll so far.
This poll is really for the forum members here who were trained through training centres on a Part P training package.
I have no intention of criticising anyone who contributes to this poll, the objective here is to...
So a regular client has just had me finish doing up their flat and bought a house, been and while quoting for LED downlight etc.. they asked to have all the accessories changed out new and a few bits looked at, while there on site they showed me a cert hand written from a contractor to move...
Well it's not often that I get to do a solid week of electrical work these days. Most of my time is office/lab/workshop based, in the field it's mostly electronics. But last week I did Monday to Saturday, six days and two nights, about 100 hours of non-stop-sparking. The main job saw the core...
