    Labelling

    Hi Regarding labeling of DB's. I have been informed that stickers are not to be used on DB units and that plastic/ traffolyte labels are to be screwed on. Are these regulations or just a preferred method. This was whilst working at a train station. Thanks in advance

    Was thinking about writing a sticky on DMX

    As it's an area of expertise of mine and something that crops up on the general board from time to time, thought I'd offer to write up a decent detailed sticky if peeps thought it appropriate? It's just cropped up again on an old thread, made me think of it!

    Domestic cable routes - cable ties/bases

    Hi, Is it a common practice nowadays to use cable tie bases and ties to fix cables above ceilings and along joist runs? I have used them commercially a fair bit but only once in domestic. I've got a rewire/newbuild to do and it will take forever if I use clips for all power,lights, tv &...

    learning disabled petition

    The college that my son, who has learning difficulties, attended is under threat from cuts. They have just started this e-petition to try and get it discussed by MPs - it's a big ask as i think it needs 100,000 signatories. It did a brilliant job for him and i would hate others not to have the...

    (very) sticky labels !

    Hi all, May seem like a trivial problem, but I seem to be spending far more time than I'd like removing old labels (I don't really want to over-sticker). Any tricks you use? Particularly getting rid of the gungy adhesive once the old shredded label finally comes off! My labels are smaller...

    ASBESTOS - lets make a sticky thread

    I have just read a thread on asbestos, and to be honest it frightens the life out of me. I'm new to the domestic industry and although i have heard of this stuff and what it can do to you (my grandfather died from it), I had no idea that it was still used way up into the 90's and in so many...

    Could we have a "sticky" thread please?

    Have been looking through General Electrical Forum “sticky” “tell us about your faults” and in the main it’s devoted to domestic / light commercial. Could we have one for industrial please? I’ve been mainly involved in maintenance work but I’ve done quite a few installs. Later on I did a fair...

    IDEA for a sticky post - bad payers.

    Haven't put this in the suggestions box to keep it away from Joe Public's eyes. Do you think it would be possible and ethical to have a sticky thread in the pub with the names and addresses of non paying/problem customers? I think it would be useful for jobbing sparks, but there could be...
