Hi all
DIY newbie here so advice needed please!
Moved into a new house about 6 months ago - there is an air vent in the bathroom which isn't working. We took lid off this afternoon and cleaned it out - it's an AXS100TR/NDX100T model made in UK.
It's connected up somewhere but how do I know...

Hi, I recently purchased this light fixture and am confused as to which wire goes where. There seem to be 3 "white wires," plus a green wire that's wrapped around one of them. Can someone help guide me? Thanks!!!
Can anyone please tell me how to wire 3 8Pin relays together? Those 3 relays are for access control controlling the doors, so when the fire alarm triggered will disenergized those 3 relays and unlock the doors. Thanks

Hi
is there such a tester that will do leakage tests and normal clip on current readings please? Must have sufficient resolution / setting to show start up currents for motors as-well.

Hi.
A little before Christmas, our (13 month old) washing machine packed in.
We did a bit of investigating locally and found an engineer with good feedback.
He came out and assessed the machine, and decided that the problem was the motor, and that we’d need a new one.
His prices seemed...

When I set up my Christmas outdoor lights this year, i realised that I must be using the wrong transformer as half the lights on the string are not powered or dull. Looking at the label on the lights, I can see it says 36V ac 11.52 W. The white plug you can see the lights going into on the image...

Good afternoon,
I have always loved things to do with electrics and always wanted to become an electrician. Life throws things at you which led to me becoming a DJ in Majorca instead. Covid 19 has decimated lives and livelihoods in 2020 and has meant I have lost all my work.
I am extremely...
