Time for a rant so will try and keep it short.

The centre had told a number of people that no prior experience was needed. Fine but the only workshop time they had was half...
I do not really expect any replies, just a little rant, a voice in the wilderness. I shelved the idea of going into my loft coversion today. The neighbours have legitimate concerns regards all sorts. The cost of appointing surveyors is such that we have decided we will have to move if we want a...

Hi All,
First post here, so hello there.
I'm not an electrician so please excuse my ignorance in the subject.
I recently installed a Smappee energy (and solar) monitor system, and I'm really pleased with how it works.
