    Double pole MCB and ovens

    Hi Yes I could it was just that the CU is in there at present. I am assuming that a couple of double pole isolators in the cupboard is considered a suitable solution and that no immediately adjacent switch is required. To isolate the ovens , if cupboard mounted double pole switches used, would...

    Double pole MCB and ovens

    My intention is/was to wire up 2 ovens, and a hob, using MCBs in a CU located in a cupboard adjacent to the oven positions. Each oven to have its own DP switch adjacent. The ovens will be mounted in what was an old chimney space and I had intended putting the switches in the brickwork at the...

    Outdoor socket

    Well the caravan wall is flat agreed but if you have ever taken one off there is usually about half a tube of sealant stuffed behind. I think a caravan socket sealed to the brickwork will be fine especially as it is not exposed to direct rain.

    Outdoor socket

Now I thought of using the type of socket one gets on the outside wall of a caravan like this which will sit more flush to...

    LED DRIVERS

    In the past have bought cheap led recessed fittings as per photo attached. As you can see they come with an led driver. They are v cheap and I have been pleased with most I have bought. So I decided to look at upmarket ones. V-TAC, whose gear I think is good do some but they cost at least three...

    Extract hood.

    I think you are spot on there. Looking at the drawings of how to install the thing I could not understand the circle I have arrowed. Obvious now after your comments that it is meant to be a socket. Pity they make no mention of it in the instructions. Many thanks.

    Extract hood.

    I have a Neff cooker hood which obviously needs wiring in. The cable is fitted with a 3 pin plug. The cable exits the top of the hood very close to where the ductwork also exits the top. When I fit the ducting covers the cable will be inside this. so either I drill the ducting cover, which I am...

    Kitchen sockets

    Made the decision to backfill the holes. All the boxes are now lying just below the surface of the current render/skim. So when he puts a new skim on should be okay. Thanks for the replies guys.

    Kitchen sockets

    Now another question for you guys. Assume you were going to replace a single socket by a twin socket in a block/rendered wall and the single back box is sunk into the block so that there is a 10mm gap between the backbox front edge and the finished surface of the render. Would you sink the...

    Kitchen sockets

    Am redoing the kitchen and need some of the sockets moving plus there are far to many. Th redundant ones am unsure how to handle them. Would it be okay to remove them replace with a connection box and bury under the plaster or, more easily, just replace with new faceplates knowing they will...
