    Is 4mm heat resistant cable okay for 7.5kw range cooker?

    The electrician that installed my cooker circuit put in 10mm cable with a 32a fuse, a 45a cooker switch and 10mm cable to the backplate for behind the cooker. He put this size in as I didn't know what size cooker I was going to be getting. I ended up getting a 7.4kw range cooker and the...

    Customer asking for lighting for range/hob as it is really gloomy at night. Issues being getting power there, and the curved profile which is more pronounced than the picture looks. I'm interested how others would approach this one. My current (only!) idea is D-Line min-trunking over tiles...

    Range Rover steering column motors

    So this is the wiring schematic for a RR Vogue steering column - in itself nothing spectacular, just two motors making it go up/down and in/out. Except, looks to me that each motor has a PL and effectively a single SL coming from off a digital controller (it links in with memorised seat...

    Hi All, Thank you for your previous advice - it resulted in us replacing our precious Smeg range with a Hotpoint; however we now have a new issue that I was hoping you might be able to advise on: The oven works nicely and the heat seems good etc. But it makes a pulsing noise when you're using...

    Dumb idea, or genius. (Temp range of LED tape

    Daydreaming today while at the ice rink. Last day of the season, and they turned on their disco lights and music. I got to thinking about embedding lights actually in the ice. Would it be possible? Not worried about the waterproof nature, but more any heat generated by a standard LED tape...

    Hi I need advice. I am about to buy a new oven. I am moving into a new home. The original owner removed their 90cm flush range oven when they moved out.

    Need dedicated circuit for water heater, range, dryer?

    Someone wants me to put a water heater(30 amps), range(40-50 amps) and dryer(30 amps) all on a single 60 amp circuit. I said that's a bad idea. They have a 100 amp main panel and all these devices would total 100 amps minimum. I am hesitant to run all these off the 100 amp service even with...
