    Hi, I after opinions on which M Class dust extractor is better for chasing and coreing holes. I have narrowed it down to either the Bosch GAS35 AFC or the Metabo ASR35. Any one used them both?

    Class 2 pendant to plug-in lamp

    Hi everyone, I hope this is a simple question! I have purchased a double insulated class 2 pendant light fitting. Is it safe to convert it to a plug-in lamp? I had originally planned to add a switch to the cable and finish with a plug, but am unsure if this is safe without an earth wire. I...

    EICR for a rented property with cpc on the lights.

    I have a EICR coming up where I am sure there is no CPC in the lighting circuit, the property is rented and I am sure all the outlets are class 2. Where do i stand? Should the circuits be rewired? C2 or C3? Thanks

    C2 or C3

    I would value your opinions on this. I did an EICR and found two lights in a bedroom that are florescent lights so class 1 but the lighting circuit is old and does not have an earth. However, the lights are in vanity units, so you cannot touch the units without dismantling the vanity units. As...
