Guys
I'm changing a fuseboard next week, it has 2 power circuits one cooker and one lighting circuit,it hardly seems worthwhile putting a split rcd board in will one rcd covering all the circuits satisfy the 17th?
What cable do you guys run if you're newly installing a Battery Powered (no neutral reqd) Programmable Room Stat 6242 or 6243 (future proofing)?
Cheers

About to do a consumer unit change and noticed that the 100a supply is feeding two electric showers. Clients say that the showers are not used simultaneously but may well be in the future. Does anyone know where to buy a 'non priority interlock' so that I can do this job properly and avoid any...
Hi this is my first post on here!
I received a txt today from a fellow electrician, this is one of many txts that are banding about at the moment it says .......
"Sparks at Smiths got letter today, new rates..... metalwork £10.50hr, wiring £12hr, glanding & terminating £14hr from March 2012!"...
Hi,
Have a full rewire coming up. Will also be cabling for satellite/tv around the house. Additionally, would like to drop cat5 (or should this be cat5e, or cat6?) to every room for future use:- phone lines, computer network and HDMI spring to mind. The latter will, I think, require some...

I got me (apologises for incorrect grammar) one of these today.
After witnessing recent events I will be adding this feature to all future PIR's/EICR's etc.
It really doesn't add much time to a report and can literally be a lifesaver if something is uncovered by it.

Is this the future for prospective electricians? Not sure if these glasses are already on the market but I would love a set myself, preferably for a Mitsubishi Shogun. The sound of my voice calling out “Next step” would drive me up the wall though….lol

I'm starting a rewire this week, the houseowner mentioned in passing that they will be having some PV panels sometime in the future.
Is there anything I should do during the rewire to make things easier for the PV fitters when they finally get the go-ahead?

Hey,
I have been looking into buying a property just across the road from me. The property is going cheap as it is really old and run down and needs a refurb. But my question is: How would I go about finding out if that particular row of houses is scheduled to be knocked down in the near...
Hi everyone, I had a call today about a board I changed lasted year with a 100amp main switch and individual RCBO'S. At the time I did this work it was my intention to leave one spare way for future expansion, which was fine until I found that the up and down ring circuits both had spurs in them...
went to house today to add a new shower circuit and as i looked at the board which was updated a year ago, i found that it is a normal spilt load board. with no 100mA rcd main switch just a normal 100A main switch with 2x 30mA rcds covering the circuit.
Now me being under impression that a tt...
if i hear this stupid phrase once more :mad::mad::mad:
wiring some av kit at the mo cat5 would be ok, got to use cat6
2 cables will do got to use 4
no need for coaxe as it will use the cat6 got to put 2 in anyway
cat5e for phone ,pull 2 just incase.
so 8 cables when 3 would be enough and cat6...
I was asked an interesting question earlier from a potential customer and I couldn't give them an answer.
She has had a new extension built up to the boundary line with her neighbour and she wants to have a 4kW solar array installed on the roof facing her neighbour. I was concerned how much...
Hi all,
Things have got so desperate in my search for work - work, that will last me longer than a poxy week or two anyway. That I've now been forced to take a job working for the missus at Sainsbury. I just can't bear the though of another Christmas on the dole!!!
I had a row with an agency...
