Hi Guys,
Looking to replace my power supply unit behind my bathroom mirror which powers the led strip lights and de-mister on the mirror itself.
Looks like the original product is from overseas and cant be purchased here. Would be great if someone can point me in the right direction as to...
Hi FOlks,
This foil or aluminium lined sheath is used in Toyota's to cover the wires running from the Reverse camera to a connector at the front of the vehcile. The sheath starts a little bit after the camera. As far as I can tell, there are four wires and one wire with no insulation running...
Anyone know where I can get these. I lost the one I had and don't know where I got it from. It fitted in my little Wera ratchet or my Leatherman and saved me from carrying a separate key.
So that's all it is, a cabinet key (double bit) with a 1/4" hex end.
I have a cooker switch which isn’t connected to a socket. The socket behind the cooker doesn’t have a switch so assumed it’s connected to the cooker switch but it doesn’t switch the cooker off. I checked the circuit breakers and the switch is connected to the “cooker” breaker but the socket...
Reading of 411.3.2 and following suggests that compliance for disconnection <400ms may be obtained using either MCB or RCD. Where an RCD (RCBO in this case) is used for Additional Protection, is compliance with Zs specified in Table 41.3 still necessary?
The situation: new installation by...

Hello all. I recently obtained my first ECS Electrical labourers card and am waiting for certificates to come back so i can attempt my AM2 in the not to distant future. I have much experience ON construction sites but only a very limited amount of experience in electrical installations, but I...
ecently got a smart motion sensing light switch for an office. It’s a 3-way switch (2 total switches). I am having a problem hooking it up.
Old switch has 2 reds/white/green wires
new switch has red/black/white/green/yellow wires
I tagged the one red wire as it seems to be the “common”.Not...
Have seen several threads on here regarding battles with gas engineers and sparks re the above.The regs state the the earth clamp shall be fitted within 600mm where "practicable",but then goes on to state before any branches in the pipework.Should the word practicable also apply to any branches...
Hi everyone! I am thinking of replacing the old switches in my flat with some new ones. I unscrewed a double switch yesterday from the wall and then I also unscrewed the face of the switch. This is when 2 small metals parts fell and I have no idea how to put them back; first of all I don't know...
So I know why it is done, where it is done and how it’s done, but I’m yet to see a scenario where there is shock danger in a typical bathroom in a dwelling provided a) the main bonding is in place and b) the CPC’s of all circuits are connected together in the CU (as they will be).
Consensus is...
Had a call out to a tripping issue yesterday.
I found that the very old RCD was faulty, but upon inspection something didn't look right regarding the routing of tails.
Bloody specific fitting megger test leads!
I've lost 2 of my megger probes now. I have plenty of crocodile clips and the long, thin, bendy probe.
Does anyone know where I can just buy the probes, rather than the full set (which includes Croc clips and bendy probe)?
Happy to pay if anyone has...
Hi, my friend is having a floating shelf with a electric fire, and I’m between minds where to put the socket,
I was gonna put the socket behind the fire which will be fed by a 13A fused spur but I’m having second thoughts about putting a socket behind there due to heat..
Would it be safe...
Been sorting through some pics and came across this. I have a thing for piers and would have been working in the area but cannot place where this is, I thought Worthing, Brighton and Eastbourne but fairly certain it isn't them. It has an odd tone because it was shot on Lomo retro slide film, yes...
