Just a FYI. I called out UKPN this week to request a supply head inspection before a complete upgrade of their domestic installation. It turns out that following a nasty incident with one of these Lucy Oxford supply heads, UKPN will no longer even open them. Instead, UKPN is going to dig up the...

To anyone in the Fife area.
Went to view a job yesterday for a renovation of a takeaway in Buckhaven.
Place is a nightmare. Bare T&E hanging. Smashed grid switches. Bare cores showing on grills and fryers. Open patt boxes.
Wanted quotes. I offered an EICR first as visual had already...
Good Afternoon

Hello,
Can anyone tell me what would cause a polarity voltage warning to occur on my kewtech KT63 tester whilst testing doing an earth loop impedance test? How’s it fixed if so?
Thanks
Just a warning about the above organisation. They took a £200 deposit and we changed our mind they would not not not give us the deposit back. Looked on line and found some very damning reviews especially doing the same thing to others. Do not use them or enter into any contract/deposit with...
I have just discovered my iPhone’s mobile data usage has more than trebled, since the last update.
All the Apps which I had set to not use mobile data have switched themselves back to using mobile data.
Last two weeks, my phone used 2.5gb, when my monthly average is normally 1.5gb.
Not a happy...
Greetings all,
I've been looking at the forums for a while now and learnt a lot from them but decided to bite the bullet and join in proper. I've studied a lot of previous newbie questions but you'll have to forgive me if I repeat one or two every so often. I'm looking to get into the trade as...
Watch out for a new dodgy e-mail scam, twice now I have received an enquirey about electrical work - very basic, my availability and that the work is domestic.
We reply asking for more details, including contact details.
We get an answer along the lines of thanks for getting back, I will send...
Hi I have a 2013 R56 and the warning light for an exterior bulb comes on each time I start the car (goes off after a few seconds usually) .When it first came on I found that a number plate bulb was out so replaced that but the warning kept coming on. I looked on the internet and found how to...
Just a quick word of warning to everyone, we have just had one of our Fluke MFT's had to go the repairers with an ERR1 fault. Initial thought was that user had blown it, but this was not the case.
Apparently they are susceptible to having their memory wiped by mobile phones or WIFI devices!

I've just replaced a CU and about to sticker it up with the relevant notices but wondering if I can put them on the inside of the cover so that the unit looks neat and clean from the outside (it's above a TV in a living room).
BS7671 states phrases like "in a prominent position at or near the...
In the flats where I live, we have an electrical cupboard. It is where the main supplies enter the building.
We have a 415 Volt 3 phase supply plus all the usual fuse terminations etc.
All the electric meters are here as well.
It is just a large cupboard, with a door that can be locked.
Should...
So do you stick them on CU? Are they necessary? Are they a waste of time and materials.
Cards on the table - I think we should boycott them completely!
Just thought I would post a warning about this company, They are a facilities management company based in Oxfordshire and I got a call out of the blue from someone called Will Simmonds a couple of months ago. He wanted me to do a couple of jobs at an opticians in Bath, it actually fitted in with...
