    Indoor light with inbuilt motion sensor…..

    Do you know that you can purchase PIR operated Light Globes which are just inserted into a normal B22 (Bayonet) socket? See https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=PIR+LED+Globe&crid=2UOTXWXXWVK60&sprefix=pir+led+globe%2Caps%2C373&ref=nb_sb_noss which includes such items.

    No one near me wants this job - New ground rod

    While there have been some later discussions concerning TT Systems, I have not seen it established whether the Earthing System involved is TN-C-S, TT or what? Of course, I am "sticking my neck out" - once again - in commentating on something of which I do not know the actual details. I am quite...

    Low resistance on microwave oven

    I strongly doubt that "the circuit showed poor resistance". Perhaps it showed "poor insulation resistance". i.e. Leakage.

    Low resistance on microwave oven

    This statement/question is annoying on several levels. Firstly, since no acronym should ever be written in any document unless it is therein explained, it has not been explained that PAT means "Portable Appliance Testing". Hence, "PAT Test" means "Portable Appliance Testing Test". This is...

    Key Card Light Switch not working

    Why? Do you own the "apartment" or do you rent it? If the latter, get the Landlord to fix it. If you own the apartment remove (Short Circuit) such an inconvenient device.

    Build A NZ -UK Power Lead

    Build A NZ -UK Power Lead

    This "thread" has wandered from its original "subject" and is now discussing the quality (or otherwise) of various terminal/connection types. I realise that in the UK the most common type of connecter may be the "chock-block" or (Dual) "Terminal strip"/"Terminal block". In Europe these are...

    Doorbell issue

    These doorbells usually work on a frequency of about 433 MHz. Inside the "bell-push" unit there is usually a printed circuit board with an "antenna" - being a circuit board "track" connected (soldered) only at one end - usually along the long side of the unit. Because of the size of the unit in...

    Pls help me find a replacement 9v adapter

    As stated in Post #1, Hence it is used only to "Charge" a "wireless foot peddle". From this, it would appear that the "wireless foot peddle" contains a Battery, which needs periodic recharging. The (vaguely "medical") "appliance" is the "wireless foot peddle". As far as I can see (from the...

    Wall light

    I am sorry to say that the "installation" in the photo is, while obviously messy, also is incorrectly wired. If this is an example of the Electrical Installations in your premises, you may have more "problems" than you now realize!

    Pls help me find a replacement 9v adapter

    Since "It is used to charge a wireless foot peddle for a clinic. " (Post #1) the "medical environment" specification may not be of any importance.
