H O Strong & sons Bristol.Any clues to the make - I can't read the label and I don't recognise it.
It can be but believe it or not that busbar which was assumed to be redundant supplies a server room. Back tonight to see what has come from the many meetings which have no doubt taken place today to discuss itThat has been hit with the ugly stick !
Isolate further upstream?
What's to discuss??It can be but believe it or not that busbar which was assumed to be redundant supplies a server room. Back tonight to see what has come from the many meetings which have no doubt taken place today to discuss it
I agree Pete. We have been on this site four weeks doing an EICR and found this hidden away in a store room. It was a bit late as we are working nights so no doubt today people are deciding how best to remove it without isolation due to the server room which we have been scouting around. I have my phone off but I suspect when I get back this evening it will have been removed as they have a site electrician.What's to discuss??

That telephone connection will get a bit warm nestled between those two power supplies! Can't see any other issues![/ATTACH]

It doesn’t make a lot of sense that, you’d have thought that some editor worth their salt would have picked up on it. If the downlight can’t work then . . . . ?This is part of an article in the PE mag. It has been printed in more than one. I don't know why you would do that. Perhaps the lights were fed from a centre tapped supply...

What make and modal is that?We fitted 9 of that range of downlights recently,2 were dead out the box, not even a brief flash or pop at first switch on. One of the 2 replacements was dead too. 2 had faulty LEDs the other had faulty electronics.
I thought that they had sorted this failure out shame really as it is not doing their reputation any good at all more than likely it is the driver when we have had high branded LED fittings before it has always been the driver.JCC Hybrid 9
.. . . and an Afro comb!or just get a bag of cable ties.
Funnily enough the floor tiles are back in place!!!I’d go for an Afro comb and occasionally back comb it - plenty of conditioner with a warm water wash.
My second suggestion - put the floor tiles back down and leg it!
AT least it's clipped
so are poodles.AT least it's clipped
Decent amount of clips as well. Must have the enclosure still on order.AT least it's clipped
The benefits of capping/tube. The company im currently subbing to dont or wont use it.Lol, had the same just before xmas, fortunately I put all the cables in oval tube so it was dead easy to replace the damaged cable.
And that’s why they call you @Dave OCD, by the way was the spirit level for us to see? Just asking! Nice job.I was recommended to a chap who's doing up his bungalow, when removing the old kitchen base units he came across this little gem....
After nearly 11 hours of hard graft it's all resited into a cupboard,new CU [The much maligned BG which I've never had a problem with],tested and certified. The 'after' picture was before it was quite finished and I'd just connected the tails in quickly to do the live tests, they were subsequently redone tidier.

1960s install - wiring diagram of installation folded and placed next to Wylex 3036 - how great is that. Respect to the ‘real’ sparks - that would take me 2 days just to draw that diagram. We’ve got it easy! (Don’t tell @Pete999 that I said that)I particularly like the graffitti...I mean, who doesn't scribble their wiring ideas on the wall?
Redecorating recently, I stripped off some wallpaper near the thermostat in the hall, and there, preserved for all time, was the "working drawing" from years ago...and yes, it corresponded exactly to the wiring in the (now defunct) stat itself...except it wasn't quite defunct...it was unused and surplus to requirements, but still packed a punch when I fiddled with it...shoulda used my voltpen, dammit!
