Change "Arms Access" banner / tag to "Pro Electrician" "Professional"?
What would you guys say?
I assume everybody with the current Electricians Arms tag is an actual Professional Electrician? (Been a while since I've admin'd here to be fair)
So I'm squishing out content that doesn't make...
My Bosch 18v GSR Professional impact driver started smoking and stopped after 9 years of hard work this week. The Combi that came with it got mistreated and lasted 4 hard years. An independent tools repairer had told me the Combi's motor was no longer obtainable. Anyone out there happy...

Morning all,

Hello Electricians
I'm after some general but professional advice, figured this forum would be a good place to ask and would really appreciate some help.
My ex-partner recently mentioned in conversation they had an electrician round to look at changing some light fittings for ascetic reasons...
Read a letter about the failings of Part P in Professional Electrician magazine today. It was written by a "Pete" who uses an electrical forum and has over 50 years experience.... I wonder if it's who I think it is???
Anyway, a very well written letter, thank you Pete! :)
Good evening all,
I have been putting it off for too long but the day really is approaching when I must replace my old faithful Bosch drill and impact driver. Not a lot wrong with the tools themselves but the old ni-cad batteries have had it and I am not prepared to replace them again.

this goes against my understanding, but I could be wrong. it is a price about kitchen installations. it states, when talking about cooker circuits
"The circuit should be designed for the stated load current without applying diversity".
ie. no 10A + 30% of remaining + 5A for a socket.
I don't...
