    Forum Tags - We're done now I promise

    Thanks for your patience with all of this. I jest about them being just tags on a website about electricals. But I know a lot of people have worked really hard to get them. So I often lose sleep over knowing at some point they're changing again. So this is it now. We've hit that last point of...

    No wonder we're up against it...!!

    Just caught a bit of ch4's 'love it or list it' where kirstie alsop stated, when doing up a kitchen "if you fit a new oven or hob you'll need a qualified engineer if it's gas, or a thicker 6mm cable if it's electric" Cheers kirstie...

    We're good...but we're not miracle workers.

    Got called out to a property in the New Forest this morning (Sunday), their oil boiler had caught fire in the early hours, luckily they heard it go and no-one was hurt. Fire brigade called, then the plumber to remove the boiler and cap the water and oil pipes, then me..... Apart from making...

    We're Back

    So boys and Girls we are back in business, and it is nice to see members piling back on. One positive thing to come out of the latest downtime is the amount of members that contacted me by whatever means available asking me what was happening and when it would be fixed and mainly how much they...

    Whilst we're on the subject of bonding...

    We all know that if something is extraneous then it needs to be bonded. However, if we have some water pipes in a bathroom for example that test at 0.2Ω to earth (MET) would you be happy with that? Let's assume it has RCD protection. I realise some say that if the extraneous tests at <1667Ω then...

    So while we're on the subject of mid life crises (see the reliving my youth thread)

    Earlier this week I bumped into the guitarist out of the last band I was in. He said he'd been approached by one of the pubs we used to play regularly with a view to a one off gig. So, an exchange of phone numbers, a hastily arranged 5 way conversation and a whole load of p!$$ taking later, the...

    We're in trouble

    :rolleyes4: I'm on a barn roof in Diss yesterday and answer a call on the mobile "We're in trouble" the voice says. "The meter has been spinning backwards since you installed the pv system and you didn't tell Scottish Power! If I get a big bill you are going to have to pay it" Rightly or...

    Evening Gents and Ladies hope all are well, just wondering if anyone can give me advice on where I could attend a training course to be qualified and authorised to remove cut out fuses.
