This might sound like a stupid question so apologies in advance.
So I had a random thought in my head.

Do you need to be a qualified electrician in the uk to create your own creative lights/lamps like they do on diy programs?
I want to design and create ceiling lights and desktop lamps using different items.
Hi everybody,
I've setup the new tilers directory and started to transfer old listings over to it. But it's doing my head in now. So I'll show you how to do it instead.
Do it in these stages and you should get traffic to your listing from the forum and whatnot. The listings I've done on...
Could I use a DOL Starter circuit to create an automatic extraction system? I was thinking that I could replace the start button and simply wire in a socket instead. So hypothetically if I plugged in and switched on an electric palm sander, it would start up my dust extraction systems (via the...

So a little while ago I started a thread with a digitally fillable MIWC I created with a promise of creating an EIC and EICR too, however, I hit a stumbling block with the limitation of the Adobe Reader software and the needs of those forms.

Hi,
we have a 100 m 220V ground power cable and at regular intervals we want to make branches of length say 5 m. My question is how do you do this correctly and in safe way. Just clip the cables and connect the wires or is there a safer way to do this?
Best Regards,
Iliya

Hi I want to know how I can ground my ESD equipment by way of using my mains points.
eg I have seen a grounding plug for sale that allows you to clip on your ESD devices. You plug it into a wall socket and it uses the earth point to discharge.
The problem is they are not cheap and there must...

And does this in any way fall foul of the 17th edition regulations.
The reason I ask is because I've been asked to install a supply to a...
