So I have been told I am working away, they have not said anything about sharing a room with someone to me as of yet, however I heard one of the other guys who is going away is sharing a room? Is this okay as I feel I would rather have my own personal space after work and since I have not even...
Hi, I have a wired alarm system with a Securitech Active 5 control panel and Lynteck Vortex bellbox. It has worked fine for many years until recently when I noticed this fault.
When the alarm is set and entry is made through the front door entry route, the internal sounder activates after the...
Hi All,
Just a question regarding all your opinions and views on domestic installer and house bashing working locally or if your gold card do you prefer the extra money for working away?.
If you could give your reasons not just financial that would be great.
Cheers
I have a Cooker/crabtree switch but the cooker switch doesn't work? I currently have a gas cooker and it is currently on the "crabtree" switch but I'm looking into getting an electric cooker but I need to resolve this cooker switch problem first. I've replaced the switch with a new one but the...

I have a unique problem which a licensed electrician could not solve. I have a 110 sub panel in my small shop for the garage and shop. It feeds off the main panel in the house and has been there for 30+ years and operating OK. Within the last year or so occasionally the lights in the garage...
A bunch of lights went out, but no breakers are tripped.
One of the lights is on a dimmer, the rest have no switches (only chains).
I tested all the breakers with a voltage tester, all seem to be working.
The lights randomly go back on, and then go off again after a few minutes. (I think...

Morning all..
I have just been to a regular customer who has a problem with their extractor fan, i.e it doesn't work. I have not come across these types of fans before. usually they are the small wall or ceiling mounted ones, or an in-line fan, all of which are cheap enough to just change. This...
Hi guys, soooo I recently took down a stud wall between my toilet and bathroom and removed this light switch and light but now the bigger bathroom light & fan won't work, there was also a cable going from the bathroom light to the hall way light fitting that I removed also ??♂️? any ideas ?
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?
Ive got to complete a Word Document regarding a Risk Assessment for Working at Height. Would anyone be able to give me pointers. It only has to be brief then all of the tables will be filled in. Ive not done one before, so I am in need of some advice if possible?

A circuit in my house quit working when a toaster oven and portable electric heater where both running on it. Normally the simple fix would be resetting the tripped breaker. However, the breaker did not appear to be tripped. I turned it off and on just to make sure and still no luck. Next...
