Hi,
I want to move the splitter box in my meter box to make room for a smart meter, which looks relatively straightforward. Should I do that myself (homeowner), or does it need a specialist? Is there any requirement regarding its location?
Cheers
Hi all… just after some independent opinions…
I have a VM install with 4 units in one building.
The VM the engineer ran one cable from the street to the basement. He then installed a 2 way passive splitter : one output for one unit and then the other output into a cupboard.
In the cupboard he...
Hi,
Can i use quickwire splitter to connect multiple switches instead of ceiling roses? 1 wire from fuse box, split it into 3 new ones and connect each of them in different rooms to light switches. Will this break any regulations?
I want to replace an old aerial splitter box with a newer one. Labgear LDA2081LR Distribution Amplifier
The old one looks to be powered by a cable connected to the lighting circuit. See photo
The new labgear has a 3 pin plug on it.
See photos of new splitter statistics and the old box...
Was wondering, when would you need to use a splitter? Isn't there usually enough room in a light to terminate more than one wire to go out to the next light?
Hi

Hi there,
I have run a brand new 50ft HDMI cable which is good quality and has built in booster to run from my main sky box which is in another room from the main TV I use. The cable etc is all ok as I have tested it with DVD player and Sky Q box which I took from a neighbour however when I...
OK, this should be easy for someone.
Firstly, let's assume a strong enough signal to take passive TV splitter at the bottom end of the cable from conventional aerial.
Is it reasonable then, to take an existing single TV outlet in a standard inset wall metal back box with front TV socket plate...
Hi all,
We are the leaseholder of a ground floor council flat in a small building. As we used to be with Virgin Media, it seems an engineer from Virgin Media has cut the cable which leads solely into our house and installed a cable splitter (situated a couple of feet above the ground) just...

Hey all, just been doing some testing and in a block of flats all the CU's are fed from the hydro splitter box in the picture. in each flat, and this landlords cupboard, where there is a bs1361 100a fuse there is a label saying "solid link - Do not remove" how would you note this on the test...
Sorry folks, technically it's not the right thing to post in this forum, but I figured my question fits in here better than elsewhere!

Amateur question here (and I may have picked the incorrect subforum too)
I want to attach a single common ground to 12 separate buttons, with individual wires rather than daisy-chaining them. I'm wondering what the best tool for this would be. In my mind I have pictured a terminal block, but...
