Thanks mate, which is the SL and whcih is the common ? Also re the mid colours, are you referring to the grey cables

Hi all, I am looking to install a hive mini in place of my Honeywell stat. I currently have two zones and want to use the hive on the upstairs only. The current stat has two cables only as it is powered by batteries. I have undone my control box to take a look inside and I can see where...

Thanks mate, I am going to return them due to misleading information and hopefully have the profiled version instead. if I only had a few to swap I’d try like you say, but I have 8 ‍♂️

Cancel this, just read the technical info and it states 35mm for flat plates website says 25mm

Hi all, I am just trying to fit a nexus screwless flat plate socket and it’s driving me absolutely mad. according to descriptions they require a 25mm back box. I managed to fit them ok on a tiled splashback but I’ve gained a good 8mm with tiles and grout. So am I wasting my time completely...

Thanks mate. Yes I’d have personally boxed the stop in with an insulated cover myself ‍♂️ Am I right in saying that hot air hitting the cold stopcock (caused by shower) is getting trapped in the vanity unit where it cannot escape this causing all the condensation

Thanks all, would it need a duct anyway ? It’s going under 6” of MOT1

Hi all, I need to run some armoured cable under a patio which I am laying. I will not be getting an electrician in for some time so I just need to know what cable to use? I will not be wiring this in myself but I need it to be approx 25m worth which will be hard wired in. Its a British...

Awesome Cheers guys
