A client asked me to fit them today, I can't see how you could do so safely. The base plate is very small and only one cable could go through the hole. There is only a couple of mill of thread at most to screw the cover onto and as you are screwing you would be twisting the cables inside the...
Hello everyone!
Im trying to fix a device and upon looking into the diodes, I noticed something odd.
Even though they are all marked the same, the flower like symbol and "MG", the values on the multimeter vary quite a bit between the diodes.
Also, even if the symbol and MG are oriented the same...
Hi
I need to recreate something like this (which was very nicely done)
I just have photo so far, not been there.
What are the grey covers called? I'm struggling to find a source of them.
I though it was all separate components - DIN terminal blocks, interconnecting link bar, and a cover.
Or...
Hi everyone! I am thinking of replacing the old switches in my flat with some new ones. I unscrewed a double switch yesterday from the wall and then I also unscrewed the face of the switch. This is when 2 small metals parts fell and I have no idea how to put them back; first of all I don't know...
Hi,
I was looking at my dishwasher and it has this metal plate with these markings.
I am confused about the meaning of "10/16A" - does that mean it uses a 10A fuse or a 16A fuse?
Also, I am guessing that there are two sets of values (230V - 2,3kW - 10/16A vs 240V - 2,5kW - 13A). I wonder...
The Apartment has been rewired and each one will connect to its own radial . Want something 'smart" with timers etc . never really looked into the market .Any brands that stick out as been reliable ?
Not something I use often, but I've got to install additional terminals to I can link out to other enclosures...
Stupidly I've left work and forgotten to note the brand, I won't be going back there before going to the wholesaler!
Anyone recognise these?
Are other brands push-in links normally...
I have a switch box, I believed is from the 63 installed, that I want to remove but couldn’t because the conduit connection to the box looks like it’s press in. There is no nut. How would I go about removing it.
Been round to a house to quote to replace some storage heaters for new panel heaters and came across a strange (to me at least) way of wiring the old storage heaters via a contactor in the board, as usually I see their own off peak consumer unit which powers up at night via economy 7.
From the...
Ive mentioned it in another thread but thought I would make a specific post !! From a quick look its a "piston type " affair .The leaver lifts up and pulls out the rod in the middle .A bar has to be inserted to the rod that then allows the lever to roll upwards pulling etc .
I'm old...
Bit like those things you see clamped onto a water mains when people add an outside tap.
Just a lot more dangerous by the looks of it on the electrical front...
I have just removed a rather expensive CD system from a house. I did explain to the customer that I thought it was worth quite a bit, but they just wanted shot of it.
Unfortunately no working speaker cables as I had to chop them off.
The unit is the bang Olufsen 9000, 6 CD player

Hi,
I was hoping someone with a little more insight might be able to shed some light on a potential issue I have, as I can't seem to find another example online where this specific question that has been answered.
What you can see in the attached photograph is meter tails (single insulated +...
