We've recently installed a system on a local Parish councils offices and meeting room on the quote we showed the vat as 20% but thinking about it now as I'm about to type the invoice, should it be 5% as a community project?
In an office stairwell, approx ten meters of cable was removed. So, between light fitting one and two, there was no supply (total of eight lights). I reinstated the missing cable, and noticed the cable between the rest of the light fittings was faulty, so replaced this cable. Would a minor work...
On a job at the moment and office sockets have no RCD protection. They are ran in singles, PVC conduit. I am adding onto the circuit as additional rooms are in the process of being built. Do I need to protect the whole circuit with an RCD or can I just protect the new sockets with an RCD FCU...

I understand that in an industrial setting if cables are surface mounted , SWA or in conduit then no RCD needed. If sockets are controlled by an on site electrician the no RCD. What happens if there are toilets on site with shower cubicles do all circuits, lighting , handriers etc have to be...

Hi Everyone,
I have just designed an editable PIR Form (in MS Office 2003 Word format) and I have uploaded it as a PDF file for the members to go through and suggest any amendments.
If people find it useful, I can upload it in editable format. Thanks for checking it.

The lighting circuit has 4 other 58w doubles in a different office which i am not sure if i will have access to.
Circuit is 6a type B 1.5mm twin and cpc clipped...

I'm looking at doing a pre-application for a 4kWp system to Western Power (playing safe as I hear they are starting to bit a bit more rigid with G83) and am wondering if anyone has got any experience of this and ideas as to how long it is likely to take?
Thanks
