    Minor Works on new Thermostat

    Hi All I have been asked to supply a minor works certificate on a smart thermostat upgrade. Would I just test the dedicated circuit from the CU to the spur or does it involve all wiring attached to the wiring centre? Cheers PFH.

A very nice van to drive, more like a car than a van. However, I had to take out roughly half of the stuff I had had in the Renault as the berlingo was...

    New T&E cable...

    Seen a couple of videos with Doncaster cables now producuing a T&E with the CPC already sleeved so no need to fit our own. I also read somewhere that this will soon become the norm and will have to be installed to comply with the regs instead of the regular cable. Any truth in that?
