    UK Can a 1.5kW wall mounted convector heater be supplied via a 13A fused plug?

    Apparently Dimplex only guarantee their heaters if they are permanently wired in to a fused outlet. If the socket is only about 600mm from the heater and the cable is clipped to the wall or skirting board instead of trailing across the floor then what's the difference? Any thoughts?

    Convert a dry lining box into a surface mounted box

    An odd question granted but bear with me. I've got to extend a radial circuit in a community centre to fit a new hand dryer in the toilets, but I have two restrictions. 1. It's a listed building so I'm not allowed to damage the walls in any way. 2. Even if I could, I've been told there is...

    VERY quiet ceiling mounted (min IP X4) bathroom fan recommendations?

    My very well off customer wants the most quiet ceiling mounted extractor fan there is. They have stipulated that cost is not a barrier and they just want something quiet. I have used one extremely quiet fan in the past, but it simply didn't do it's job, so that's pointless. This fan still needs...
