it was only yesterday we went croc.jumping.on a river cruise for a.couple.hours.. makes you appreciate the stealth and power of these things.. this poor fella was fishing apparently. what u dont understand is why people fish and swim in these places when they have the highest density of...
Not quiet the same as the other recent threads i believe, ive been to look at a new extension that's been built, the mains is being moved from is current position which is on the current outside wall to the outside wall on the new extension, so the plan is to fit a new consumer unit to supply...

1. to split the consumer unit in the garage and provide its own RCD and type C MCB
2. SWA two core to the Hot tub location (50mtrs away)(will work out cable size to match Zs)
3. Earth rod...
TNS, Ze 4.35. Hmmmm. If in doubt don't. Measure it twice, cut it once. If in doubt, do it again. 0.68 that's better. Bad connection, my fault. But who else not in the know would have questioned it.
SORRY!!!...made spelling mistake, tried to correct, forum went nutts (my laptop more likly)...so re posting...

Woke up today and saw that the robbers in government are trying to dramatically increase motoring fines! Now I've seen first hand the devastation caused by road traffic incidents,but firstly lets look at the facts,a marked volvo driving up and down the motorway or sat on an overbridge has a...
Hi All
I have never done or touched anything to do with home networking or office networking so I am pretty clueless. I am in the middle of doing an extension in my house and I am putting a new TV in I am wondering if now is the time to get involved with it.
My existing setup in my house is 1...
Looks like the government are fiddling again. Funding for domestic EV charging points, which should carry on until March 2015, may be pulled as soon as TWO WEEKS time. These people have absolutely zero idea of how a SME works. The domestic EV charging point scheme has attracted praise and...
I wonder if anyone has any ideas - my TV is driving me crackers!
Our TV is connected via a a DVD player / recorder to a signal booster box (which sits next to the TV) and then to a rooftop aerial, we watch freeview. For many months this has worked just fine.
A few weeks ago, I would...

Does anyone know how much western power dist (I think!) charge for coming out and pulling the main fuse so I can change over the CU? The airhead I just spoke to didn't even seem to know what I was talking about and I need to get a quote off sharpish.....
I wasat elex the other week and a guy was demonstrating some wiring boxes,they are the latest thing he assured me, save using JB's on lighting if you don't want to do a 3 plate.Anyway they looked familiar to me and at home that night it occurred to me where I'd seen them before,back in the 70's...
Had a strange one today, hager 100a 30ma rcd failed to trip with the tester. TT earthing arrangement, also very strange readings. ze 197.4 ok normal for around that area the zs around 0.53. Went and got a replacement 80a 30ma rcd, the 100a was on the large side. Failed the test again. Went home...
This will be forced upon us next year. I have seen the changes and they are mainly around the Zs values for disconnection times, and some significant changes to the application of RCD's. I think that these changes will be significant enough for a new regs book to be printed, and this obviously...

Hi guys, I'm planing on putting some power to my grandparents garage so I can work on my car. I'm going to put in one double socket which will be running a freezer, and my welder too, and then a couple 5ft fluorescents or x2 battenholders.. whatever gives the best spread of light?
The thing...

Was given today's daily mail by a neighbour - he didn't understand the article - see attached
Headline: How Money Saving Solar Panels actually increased my heating bill by £220
Yet the actual article was NOTHING about solar panels - the problem related to a bunch of badly designed, and clearly...
