Hi Good morning, i have just replaced 2 old dowlighters with LED ones, however, one is bright white and one is soft white(like a glow), the other problem is they swap over when switched on/off at the switch? any help greatly appreciated.
A quick connect on the bottom of my farm tractor was snagged by a limb and one side of the connectors wires were pulled free from the housing. The good side with the wires still connected has a black wire (hot?) and a white wire (neutral?) but the 2 wires that were pulled free from the other end...

I have a fair amount of basic electrical experience but have never dealt with 3 way switches. I am upgrading the 1970's wiring in my attic and came across a light fixture controlled by a 3 way switch. If the 3 way switch is in the off position, the switch on the other end does not function. The...
I've helped out on a few jobs recently where they required matching screws, silver and bronze coloured sockets are fine because they come with the matching screws. But now I've a customer who is wanting screws concealing in a white light switch when we rewire their house. Does anyone know where...
@Dan, I'm finding the new home page style quite difficult to read, whereas the black on orange at the top stands out, the white on orange makes me squint. Perhaps it's just me, but may be worth asking a few others?
Hi All,
We've moved into a new build property and our bathroom, which has glossy white with a hint of grey speckle Porclenosa tiles, is looking a bit dull which I believe is the result of the downlighters. We have 3 x 7.9W, 38 degrees, 3000K downlighters in the bathroom and they seem to be...
I am having 14 downlights fitted in a kitchen - 13 sq metres , about 2.14m x 6.1m.
I have the option of Cool white 4000k or Warm white 3000k - how do I work out what I need?
Hello, I feel a bit stupid asking this on site now as the spark looking after me has already mentioned it, but why would an emmergency lighting system have a separate 2-core fire performance cable (black and white cores) pulled in with the FP200? I’m sure it’s called a ‘bell’ or ‘belling’ cable...

I was looking through my previous posts and I saw one where I recommended this UK White Goods Forum to a Member who had asked a question about an Appliance malfunction code.

I hate having to open a large tube of silicone sealant to do a little bit of filling/sealing.
Invariably the next time you go to the tube its gone off and needs to be binned.
A while ago, I found that Poundland do small 70g tubes of white 151 Silicone Sealant as below:
151 White Bath & Shower...

Hello all,
I'm selling 30 x warm white G9 lamps which I have swapped out for cool white at a customers house. He didn't like the warm white I put in first time around! All working and packaged in Knightsbridge boxes (these aren't Knightsbridge, just rehoused them in the boxes from new lamps)...
What does every everyone think of the new Ecs gold card having a white back? Maybe im being picky but i think it somehow degrades the gold card. Is it just me or does anyone think it should have stayed all gold

I only need a couple of meters of each.
Cheers
