Thanks very much:))

I'm sorry iof Im going to sound dumb here....Whn you say feed supply, you mean the pipes going into radiator?? Would it be ok to cap them just above the floor as it's blimmin tiled!! thanks again:))

Hi There.... Could someone tell me if its ok to permanently remove a radiator, capping the pipes with stop ends, as the radiator is on a combi boiler system?? many thanks.

Know anywhere where I can get a cheap zoom lens....LMAO!

SO, 'Spacing factor' Does that mean there should be some space for movement within the trunking? The fit I have is very snug--So I should be replacing with larger trunking? :)

Wow---thanks..... Please could you tell me, out of interest---Why does a kitchen sink not require bonding, but a bathroom one does? I'm chufefed to hear that it doesn't :)) So what I need to do is ask an electrician to come and check what I intend to do, and then check again after I've done...

Thanks again--- I think sometimes trying to save money is perhaps a no no in the long run... On reading the DIY pages more, I see that I should have the sink I've plumbed in (Ive moved the kitchen into another room) bonded too, so really am thinking now that perhaps I've overestimated my own...

Oh eck---I think I may have bitten off more than I can chew! Ok, the only cable I have routed so far is the cable that will be connected to the consumer unit and to the control socket. I haven't wired this up at all. But It follows a straight line up and then goes through to the shelf whereupon...

Hi there.... Am I using the right terminology---Doh... The control unit is a double pole one, with a socket, as we have a bit of a socket shortage. I'm going to bandq later to pick up the cooker outlet Box...The specs are as follows.... 5760W Total for the Hob 1800W for the oven.... It...

Many thanks:) The cable I am using is I think 10mm.....I bought the higher mm as it is going to a connection unit with a socket. After reading further on here I also see that I need an outlet plate (45 amp)...as the oven is well above 7 kw...Does that sound right?? Sincere thanks! Kyla

Hello :) I am about to lay cable for an electric cooker. I have the correct cable, control units and terminal outlets and will be getting an electrician to connect to the consumer unit. The easiest route for me would be to start in the elecricity cupboard, and round a wall shelf above wood...

Hi There--many thanks for replying. I'm not very technical so will try explain, please bear with me:)) The cable would come from a small electricity cupboard in the hall, around the shelving (About six and a half feet from ground) which passes over two doorways, and would then go through the...

Hello there--many thanks for letting me into this great forum:) I am about to lay cable for an electric cooker, all the other work will be done by an electrician, but in terms of money, I need to save on that bit of work. The easiest route for me would be to start in the elecricity cupboard...
