Dear all,
Just wondered if anyone could solve this puzzle:
Today I changed the headlight bulb on my car. It all worked fine when fitted, but then -

Nothing big… just a little alteration to sockets, and run in a new cable for a built in oven. Original cooker point being used for hob.

Hello everyone. I have a inverter configuration problem I thought someone here might be able to help with. I'm not looking for a specific solution for my inverter in question, but rather if anyone has encountered this problem and has generic parameter advice to give.
I'm using a Mitsubishi...
I have lost the use of my two loft TV aerials due to interference from the installation of foil backed dense foam insulation. I guess this is caused by signal reflection. Would any know of a solution to enable me to bring the aerials back into use. I know the obvious solution is to erect them...

Hi,

It’s about 6 years old. The model number is WVG30461GB/03.
It has begun to stop mid cycle and what sounds like the dryer starts up. This goes on for some time and then everything stops and it is just frozen.
It doesn’t seem to...

We are having problems with one socket which my husband has changed the front plate on. When he tried to attach the new front cover it singed the screw and blew the fuse. What could be causing this?
I recently got my flat rewired. It had old storage heaters and we plan on putting modern storage heaters in. The way the electrician did the rewiring means that there is only night time supply for the future heaters, although now I’m looking at buying heaters, I realise that all modern heaters...

Recently changed a CU for a friend and today when visiting one of the RFC's RCBOs tripped. It was due attention anyway as open ring and no time to solve it last week, but due to the trip I checked the IR again and found it was different. Last time around a stable 15M on 250V with stuff attached...
