    2 X Ovens on 4mm T&E

    Thanks Guys, Although I'm Part P, I am not practicing, other than my own house refurb, so it's just a little reassurance I needed. Thank you for your responses.

    2 X Ovens on 4mm T&E

    Hi All, I have 1 X Fan oven 3.3Kw and an oven/microwave combo 3Kw. I had already installed a 4mm cable, as originally, there was only going to be one oven. After doing the calcs and looking at diversity, it seems to me that I'm safe to go with both ovens on this cable. Total Load: 6.3Kw Cable...

    Wiring of 5A lighting sockets

    Hi Baddegg, Thanks for that, it's a fair point. Thank you for you considered reply. I was originally going to loop it but as I said, I felt it would be easier to do what I was suggesting. It's hard to explain why I want to do it this way, but you need to see the space I have to work in to have a...

    Wiring of 5A lighting sockets

    Murdoch. I think my last reply may have crossed with yours. As you can see they will be accessible. Also they are done using Wago connectors and boxes. They don't need to be accessible, but I'm making them accessible anyway.

    Wiring of 5A lighting sockets

    The house is my own property. I am in the middle of a serious refurb. I am rewiring as I go. It is a bungalow and I have stripped all of the plaster board of the walls in order to insulate the place. The roof above the area where the drops are going is a major PIA. I am running all the cables...

    Wiring of 5A lighting sockets

    Hi All, I am about to wire 6 x 5A lighting sockets, via a switch next to the door into a living room. I was wondering if there is any reason why I shouldn’t run the switched feed around the perimeter of the loft, above the walls where the socket outlets are going to be fitted, and spur off...

    Number of LED batten lights required in garage workshop.

    That’s a good point regarding the comparison. At least now I have more of a mental picture in my head. Thanks for that. The comment about the Essex boys tanning salon just had my in stitches. Brilliant!

    Number of LED batten lights required in garage workshop.

    Hi Agin, I like the sound of the 11000 lumens. I think I’ll need sun glasses for that lot. They do sound like just what I’m after. With the walls and ceiling painted white the light should be really good. Thanks for the reminder about the lumens. It’s not as easy to imagine light output with...

    Number of LED batten lights required in garage workshop.

    Hi All, Thank you so much for all your replies. I must admit, I did think my question was one that would not be an easy one to answer, given the variables around it. I will be using a band saw, pillar drill and planner thicknesser etc. I like the idea of having two banks. Especially as I can...

    Number of LED batten lights required in garage workshop.

    Hi All, I hope someone can give me a bit of advice on how many LED batten lights I should install in my new workshop. I am hoping to create lighting that will give a good even spread of light that will mean I can easily see what I’m doing no matter what part of the workshop I am in. I will be...

    Smoke coming from electric meter/fuse box area

    This is the first time I have posted on this forum. I read this with great interest and despair. I'm someone who 4 years ago went on one of the very much loved Part P two week courses. Now before you guys get stuck into me, you need to know that I paid 4k of my own cash to do this course, as I...
