    I might regret this

    Thought I'd spark a debate about these giphy gif images we have available. Click the three dots next to the smilie face. Then click GIF. And you can find one that works for you. Now I can't remember if I hid them, and if so then was it for everybody or just newbies or what. But either way I...

    What might this wired object be?

    The house was built in 1977. I noticed at least two of the pictured objects secured to the attic ceiling. I don't know what they are and that leaves me frustrated. What are these wired items attached to the ceiling of the attic?

    Who might be interested in purchasing an ocilliscope?

    I recently became the not so proud owner of an mso56 ocilliscope. It is more complex than my wife. It is in great condition barely used if at all. I think my late father paid something like 30k for it a little over a year ago. But then tragically passed 6 months later. I (his only son) was the...

    Thought you might appreciate this!

    Just been called to this beauty as previous electrician wanted more money ( in cash) up front and walked to quote "cut his losses". Mounting board has been removed. Meter has been moved by said electrician. And yes it has been wedged in pushing the gas feed across. I wish I could say it's a...

    Upgrading the forum, things might be a bit slow for a bit

    Just upgrading the forum, things might be a bit slow. Some features might come and go. Should be done by tomorrow. Apologies for any lag or downtime. It's an essential upgrade so can't really dodge this one. Security updates as well as a few new features. Will reveal more in the coming days.

    What might be causing clicking in my extension lead ?

    My 4 plug, 2 usb, surge protected extension lead started producing a clicking noise about 2 months after purchase. The clicks are every ~0.4 seconds and start as soon as the power is supplied to the extension lead, even when nothing else in the room is plugged in to anything. The clicks sound...

    What might have caused this safety switch to fail?

    I have a 50 HP Quincy rotary screw air compressor. It was running fine and I shut it down to change filters yesterday. After locking out the disconnect switch, A Square D, 100 amp fused switch, I found the machine was still powered. I went to the 80 amp breaker, 25 feet away, and locked out...

    Any guesses which (Northern Ireland?) electrician company this might be???

    I'll try to keep it short: Back in 2014 we had an electrical company from Northern Ireland do some work for us in the Luton and Bedford areas of England. I don't remember their name (hence the question), all I know is they used to come to the area SEVERAL weeks in a row in the summer and they...

    Think this might need updating.....

    So I came across this on the bottom of the Electricians listing. Think it may need some tweaking as there aren’t trusted advisers anymore and 5 lines down it says tilers
