    Wirefree/Wireless PIR sensor for lighting recommendations please.

    I have a request from a customer who basically wants a number of LED floods installed. However he wants it set up that all the lights come on when any PIR picks up motion. 1 light will be a lot more labour intensive than the rest, but he's looking the sensors in awkward locations in regards...

    Old very conductive potting compound. What was this stuff?

    I'm digging out a set of a dozen ground mounted floodlamps installed in ~ 1985. The junctions to SWA are all made within galvanized conduit boxes, which are suspended in air inside large bucket-sized underground clay pots. Most interestingly, the source of extremely low insulation resistance...

    TV Building shows and Youtube

    Right here we go, I realise that the shows I'm talking about are mainly aimed at the DIY section of society, or in my case a bored nearly ex Electrician. Never the less I am compelled to vent my anger at the down right blatant dangerous information dished out by some of these so called experts...

    How to get a weatherproof seal on conduit?

    Quite often I see conduit going into an adaptable box or conduit box 'outside'. This is fine if it is coming in from the bottom, you can just use a normal adaptor to go into the box, but often it comes in from the side and the adaptors are not IP rated. I just wondered if anyone here uses...
