    How many of you use a Leatherman or similar multi-tool or EDC on a regular basis?

    I could make good use of something like this. :mask:

    Dodgy trade pictures for your amusement! - 1 Million Views!

    You're quite correct ..... you did indeed see bits of loft insulation. I didn't notice any loose sections adjacent to the downlights which is why I think there wasn't much insulation up there to begin with!

    They never bothered fitting an RCD either. This is a tenement building. I don't think there was ever any insulation here to begin with!

    Dodgy trade pictures for your amusement! - 1 Million Views!

    The photos below were taken last week inside the attic of a property in Glasgow. These atrocities are typical of what I expect to find, and usually do find, whenever I am called-out to jobs where Barry the bathroom fitter or his fellow muppet Kevin the kitchen fitter have been let loose...

    Private rental EICRs are coming soon

    "Competent person" ought to read "qualified electrician with relevant experience and up to date qualification in the inspection and testing of electrical installations".

    ISSUES WITH OLEV PAYMENTS

    I installed three EV charging points under the Workplace Charging Scheme back in early November last year. I finally got paid the £1500.00 I was due from OLEV yesterday. I'm now seriously contemplating whether or not I want to continue doing EV installs under the grant scheme as I'm not happy...

    The Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020

    Your post has hit the proverbial nail firmly on the head Andy. I'm in complete agreement with all that you have said. Most of the EICRs relating to private rental properties that have I seen aren't worth the paper they're written on.

    EICR OBSERVATIONS

    Perhaps the original spark quoted for the work, but the OPs price was cheaper???

    Domestic installer and other works.

    I don't know the ins and outs of how this NICEIC Domestic Installer scheme operates , but according to the NICEIC, their Domestic Installer scheme is "designed for contractors solely looking to register domestic installation work in accordance with the Building Regulations." Are schools...

    Rumours.

    Douglas Murray, Paul Joseph Watson and The Iconoclast have nailed it: Britain’s divide isn’t North v South or red v blue. It’s between the ugly intolerant Left and the rest of us

    Rumours.

    I can's see Abbott becoming the next Labour leader ..... she's Corbyn without the beard.

    Labour Manifesto

    I'm sure they would, but no amount of evasiveness, empty rhetoric, disingenuous spin and turd-polishing by Sturgeon's campaign manager can alter the truth about Govanhill as told by long-standing residents:

    Labour Manifesto

    Even if the polls were indicating a 99.99% majority in favour of Scotland remaining part of the UK, the SNP would still claim that gives them a mandate to pursue a second referendum. I am sick and tired of this tedious independence debate. It's become a saga. So as I said in an earlier post...

    Labour Manifesto

    I utterly abhor the woman as do many other Scots. Indeed so. An even 50/50 split, according to one poll. 60/40 in favour of the union, according to another.

    RCD types and DC current

    I too no longer install dual RCD boards, having switched to A type RCBOs since the 18th edition came into effect. Apart from the better protection that A type RCBOs offer, fitting these RCBOs will ensure that regulations 531.3.2, 536.4.3.2 and 536.4.202 are complied with. I think the AC type...

    Cost of a rewire?

    The first house rewire that I did on my own was in 1982 aged 23. The house was empty with no caperting. 3 x RFCs, 2 x lighting circuits, and three other circuits for cooker, shower and central heating. Fortunately, I already had gained experience of rewiring while serving my apprenticeship, and...

    Labour Manifesto

    From The SNP Chronicle The Herald newspaper: Aye, right ye are Nippy. Whatever you say. 1576335560 According to Nippy, Boris Johnson "does not have a mandate to take Scotland out of the EU". Sturgeon's 'argument' is bogus. Not only does Boris Johnson have a mandate to take England out of...
