Hi Forum people. First time post here.
I have a pair of semi flush fittings that are currently 10 Halogen capsules per fitting. I want to convert these to LED at 2 watts per capsule. Space is a very limiting factor. Each fitting currently has a round transformer inside. I only have an 80mm...
I have a recessed light over a shower with a 4” glass cover. I broke the glass cover by dropping it :(. Are you able to buy a replacement cover or do you need to buy the entire metal housing and glass that comes with it? I don’t see this at Home Depot or Lowe’s without buying the whole thing...
There is power flowing. I have checked with multimeter. One light on the line works..even replaced the switch it is connected to. Rest of line still down. Been down for months since a large storm although no indications of lightening strike. Replaced breaker on Sunday...no dice. On Tuesday power...
Over the holiday period my partner returned home to her apartment with no power. None of the internal breakers in the consumer unit had tripped and so she was unsure what to do. She called an electrician who took the cover off the consumer unit and then showed her these singed breakers across...
Hi all. I have noticed there are two schools of thought here when running a separate earth with a SWA to a large DB, where is the correct place to terminate the earth ? . We can go straight in to the internal copper earth bar as we have spare unnumbered holes for it , or we can lug it and go on...
Does any one have a link or know where I can find the diagram I’ve seen that lays out what rcd devices you can and cannot have up/downstream of each other?
e.g. you can’t install a type A downstream of a type AC etc
it was a good little diagram but I can’t seem to find it again, I think it was...
Is it acceptable to run mini trunking as shown in the pic? To my mind it would be safer (and slightly less ugly) to have a drop from each socket and then run it along the top of the skirting. I would be concerned about the trunking coming loose and being more likely to suffer mechanical...
I need one of these today, anyone know who has stock?

Hi all,
I've recently had 2 customers enquire about installing a backup generator for their domestic premises.
After a lot of research, contacting generator manufacturers, and generally going around in circles, it's become apparent that TN-S, or "centre tap earth" generators are practically...
We bought a house and this conduit is outside my back door of my garage. It has 3 6g wires that have been cut and left in the conduit going into the ground. Any idea where the wires originate and go?
My solar panels and battey system were installed and MCS certified back in 2016. unfortunately the installers went bust not long after the install and I never got some of the paperwork. This didnt matter as at the time i didnt qualify for the FIT anyway and as long as it was registered with LABC...
My California dryer wall socket has 3 blades shown in picture. I measured across bottom 2 blades = 240VAC. I measured top L-blade with one of the bottom blade = 120V. Is the L-blade a neutral? If yes, why no Ground blade? If the L-blade is Ground instead, then why no Neutral blade?
I tried...
Hi, I’m just wondering has anyone on here any experience with a Mitsubishi Ecodan R32 model.
I’ve completed all the wiring expect for terminating two motorised valves. I cannot find a manual stating what terminals they go into. Any help is really appreciated.
Thanks

Hi
So basically I went self employed at the end of January and I am currently subbying back to my old boss.
I'm not originally from where I live (Stamford, Lincolnshire) so dont have a big network of family or friends. My problem is how do I generate my own work. So far I've only picked up one...
Scenario...
2 x switched fused spurs located in a shower room. They are 610mm from side of shower, so outside zones. However, they could still get water on them from the shower so I don't feel they are suitable for the location. I can't find a reg for this though. is there one?
I realise...
