In one of our bathrooms we have a japanese style toilet with bidet/dryer and a electric motor bath.
The electrician installed it with an isolating transformer Carroll & Meynell 3000VA Intermittent Isolation Transformer 230V/230V - Screwfix -...
Whats everyone's take on this, turned up today to start a re-wire and yet again there wasn't any toilet on the job so we ring the builder and he wasn't interested, we offered to pay for a portaloo if he gets it dropped off but he said tough, you either go home or go to a shop.
So obviously we...

Been asked for a light switch to go in a small room with a toilet and no basin, there is a door but you have to go through the bathroom to get there, hence no basin.
I’ve said I don’t think this is best and am trying to find other solutions but I’m not sure it’s actually against any regs...

They are basically built on a trailer, with plastic walls and metal reinforcing.
I've been asked to do a...

To all electricians: my toilet light stopped working and the bulbs and entire fixture has been changed. Could the extraction fan have blown and would that affect the light?
Hi All,

Can a disabled toilet alarm pull cord be linked with another pull cord in the same room?
So when either one is used it alerts the same way on the central board?
Having installed the named item above I am having a problem with it. First off I have followed the wiring diagram they give. When all the parts are connected it is in an alarm state. I have faithfully followed the installation instructions and spoken with tech support who have given up on the...
Hi,
Currently rewiring my new house and have accepted that the building inspector wants and extractor fan in the downstairs loo. However I'm struggling to work out what is acceptable in regards to "zones"
There is no shower or bath, but there is a small sink and the toilet.
The extractor...
Our toilet extractor has, or so I thought, been failing (delayed startup, bit intermittent) for some time, and yesterday it finally stopped working. Vent-Axia Silhouette 100T.
It's going to be a bit of a pain to replace, so I though I would check the connections first just in case. Imagine my...

I'm currently in the middle of gutting the downstairs toilet. It will only have a toilet and a small cloak room sink.
I plan to have a mirror and x1 2 gang socket outlet for the misses to straighten her hair because she refuses to do in the bedroom because there is no mirror.
Is this deemed...
Evening chaps,
I have to connect a new toilet (before anyone says it, for a client with more money than... sense/toilet roll?)
Before seeing it I presumed SFS on a RCD protected circuit, however it comes with a pre-fitted molded plug and integral 10ma rcd unit further up the factory fitted...
Hi,
The ladies toilet where I work had three lights off last week. I replaced the lamps in each fitting and two work but the last one didn't. It is an emergency light and is the last light on the circuit if that helps. I looked above the ceiling and they are all individually plugged in to a...
Hi, I rewired the lighting in a pub recently. One of the lights in the ladies toilet has exploded the glass cover. The bulb itself is still on but making a strobe effect. They can't turn the circuit off as they have a full pub and a live band playing, but obviously want it fixed for tomorrow...
